Clallam: United Way campaign kicks off soon

The 51st annual United Way campaign gets under way with meetings and special events over the next two weeks across the North Olympic Peninsula.

This year’s campaign goal is $850,000, a 4 percent increase over the $818,000 raised in 2002.

Campaign chairman Pastor Charlie Mays of Holy Trinity Lutheran Church, Port Angeles, said the theme this year is “Helping People Here at Home — the United Way.”

But Mays gives the theme a little twist.
