  1. Investing in Our Community 2007 Community Giving Campaign Intel Retirees Laura Bain, OR Renee Levin, AZ

  2. Purpose Provide information to individuals on Intel’s Community Giving Campaign and how retirees can help improve lives in our community. • Review campaign Highlights from 2006 • Provide updates for the 2007 Campaign • Explain the pledging process • Show how to double the impact of the charitable contributions you may already be making

  3. Why Participate??? • Intel believes in being an asset to the communities where our employees & retirees work and live. • More than 38 million Americans have incomes below the federal poverty level. More than 50% are employed. • The poorest children enter kindergarten 1-2 years behind in language and other skills important to success. • By the age of five, many children in high-risk environments are already developmentally behind. This gap only grows over time – undermining school readiness and success in life. • Research shows that investing $1 in quality early learning experiences saves $17 down the road, with tangible results measured in lower crime, fewer single parents, and higher individual earnings and education levels.

  4. Why United Way? • Each local United Way has a local, volunteer Board of Directors that provides direction & oversight to the organization. • Some UW’s have Intel employees on their board • Each local board sets administrative cost • Nationally, the acceptable administrative cost for a non-profit is ~30%. The majority of UW’s administrative costs are less than 15%. • You may want to check with your United Way to get specific data • Community investment (funding to agencies) decisions are made by community volunteers. • Some UW’s have Intel employees on the allocation panels • Each local United Way determines the needs in their community based on a community needs survey.

  11. Campaign hot topics Q/A Q: Does Intel push employees to donate? A: Our intention is to encourage employees to help their local communities. We hold meetings to educate them so they can make an informed decision. Q: I remember there was an incident a while ago regarding corruption. What was that about? A: In 1992, the national President of the United Way of America was found guilty of misconduct and sent to prison. All United Way affiliates are subject to annual audits conducted by independent, national accounting firms. Since that time, all United Ways have agreed to national membership standards to avoid any incident from happening again.

  12. Thanks! • Thank you for your time and generosity during these challenging times. Your participation and contribution is greatly appreciated • Sadly, our communities needs never go away so hopefully, together, we can all make a difference Please join me in making a donation this year.
