Perkins Exceeds United Way Goal
By Suzette Barte
I love living in Perkins.
When it comes to generos-
ity, I would put the people
of Perkins up against pretty
much anybody. Case in
point: we just blew the top
off our United Way ther-
mometer by raising fnore
than $56,000.
When the Board of Direc-
tors for the Srillwater Area
UnflTod Way announced
a 20t3 goal of $875,000
with a Perkins campaign
z
goal of $46,000, I have to
admit I was nervous. Our
2012 total in Perkins was
$44,000 -- which I consid-
ered:'absolutely amazing!
I just wasn't sure how we
were going to top it this
year. Oh me of little faith.
Some notable sources
of income for this year's
campaign include the
Pistol Pete 5K and Fun
Run which raised $4723.
Children's activities such
as coin drives at Perkins-
Tryon Schools raised
$1778. The silent auction
hosted at Payne County
Bank raised $2150. This
year's campaign also had
several individual large
donors--some choosing to
remain anonymous.
As in the past, the employ-
ees of Payne County Bank
were a driving force behind
the success of this year's
campaign. In addition to
the silent auction, events
such as-cinnamon roll sales,
cili cook-off, and casual
Fridays raised significant
funds. The employees
themselves-- many through
monthly payroll deduc-
tions--donated thousands
of dollars to support United
Way.
I cannot say enough about
two individuals associated
with this year's Perkins
campaign: Chris Petermann
and Gene Wollenberg. Chris
Petermann (Payne County
Bank) is a member of the
SUAW Board of Directors
and served as this year's
overall campaign Chair. I
cannot imagine what kind
of stress is associated with
being charged with raising
$875,000.
Gene Wollenberg (Payne
County Bank) served with
me as the co-chair for the
Perkins campaign. Let me
tell you this...Gene Wol-
lenberg has a huge heart
for the United Way and
his dedication to the 2014
CLINIC
aennme; - ParU00 - Retries
321 N. Main in Peddns
campaign is a big part of
what made it such a huge
success! Thank you Chris
and Gene for what you do
to make Perkins such a
wonderful small town.
Oh and by the way, Per-
kins is not the only part of
the campaign to make goal.
The overall campaign for
the Stillwater Area United
Way did make the goal of
$875,000 this year. Thanks
to the generosity of people
in Perkins and all across
Payne County, organiza-
tions such as Judith Karman
Hospice, Wings of Hope,
The Salvation Army, Big
Brothers lig Sisters, Amer-
ican Redmss, Girl Scouts,
Boy Scouts and many more
will receive financial assis-
tance they so desperately
need...tt our citizens
desperately need. Visit
stillwaterunitedway'°rg to
learn more.
Tha: you Perkins for
giving..for volunteer-
ing.., for caring.
