Jim Duszynski, CEO of Greenvest L.C., presented
the Untied Way of Jefferson County volunteers with a check for
$10,000 to take the annual fundraising campaign past its goal
and to the $500,000 level. With the contribution, Duszynski
became a member of the national Alexis de Tocqueville Society
for donors of $10,000 or more annually. The Claude Worthington
Benedum Foundation matched the donation with a $5,000 gift.
Duszynski shook hands with Bob Baronner and Chip
Bennett, both members of the Board of Directors of the United
Way, who thanks Duszynski for the contribution. "As the
area grows so does the need for viable human service programs,"
Bennett said. "Contributions to the community from builders
and developers reinforce their commitment to our neighbors."
The United Way of Jefferson County volunteers
evaluates and financially support 26 health and human service
organizations providing service to local residents. One gift
to the United Way can insure that charitable dollars are directed
to meet local needs.
