Laboratory's United Way 2003 campaign kicks off today

The Laboratory's United Way 2003 giving campaign, "Strong Homefront … Stronger Nation!" begins today. The theme reflects the Lab's commitment to local and national needs.

The campaign kicks off with a book fair at Fuller Lodge from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. today. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the United Way. Mariachi Encanto will provide music entertainment and a barbeque lunch will be available for $5. Lab workers attending the book fair also can make pledges at that time and obtain information from United Way agencies. The book fair continues from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday in the Otowi Building at Technical Area 3.

For information on individual agencies Lab workers can contribute to, go to www.losalamos.com/unitedway/ for Los Alamos and Northern New Mexico or www.uwsfc.org online for Santa Fe County United Way agencies. The campaign runs through Nov. 8.
