DECC Heads Into Its 22nd Year!
By Beth Machann, Chair, DECC Committee
Last year the Denver Employees' Combined Campaign (DECC) did what many fundraising campaigns couldn't, they went over their campaign goal by raising $565,186 - the second highest dollar amount in DECC history.
THANK YOU! Last year's outstanding success was due to Denver City Employees'' tremendous enthusiasm, support, and belief in this worthwhile giving campaign. Your incredible generosity is truly appreciated by the DECC Committee members, Staff and the over 400 member nonprofit charities.
This year the DECC Committee has set a gol of $530,331. This is a modest goal and is less than what we raised last year. There are two important reasons we have set this goal. The first one is we realize that all of us are going through some difficult and uncertain times and we are sympathetic to your concerns. The other reason is if we raise $530,331 and add it to the $9,469,699 already raised in 21 years we will hit the 10 million dollar mark! If we raise $530,330 we won't hit this important goal. See how one dollar truly does make a difference?
The members of the DECC Committee, as appointed by the Mayor, are:
Beth Machann, Chair, Controller’s Office (720) 913-5515
Karen Brennan, Department of Public Works (720) 913-8507
All of us are eager to hear your suggestions, at any time, to make the DECC even more successful each year.
