Increased student participation will be one of the goals in the Lawrence unified Fund fund-raising drive, which is being announced tomorrow at a kick-off breakfast.
Businesses and individuals in a pilot fund-raising program have already started.
The goal for the drive, which lasts until Nov. 11, is $429,099, a 12.3 percent increase from June 2016 to Jo Bryant, executive director of Lawrence United Fund, said yesterday.
The emphasis in the KU division of the drive this year is on reorganization and more student participation, said Della Lucci, campaign chairman for the drive.
"More student participation is be- cning evident," said Galluzzi. "More
THE KU DIVISION goal is $50,000,

to Bryant, the goal was kept the same
due to a "cheat" faculty have not received a pay raise.
This year's KU division of the drive is designed so that different phases of the University are represented on the planning committee including students, faculty members, the administration, Student Senate members, the office of student affairs and Classified Senate members.
Chancellor Gene A. Budig has been associated with the United Fund for 12 years, and he said that it was important that KU support the drive in 1983.
"The United Fund is important to the people of the community, and KU is a major part of the community." Budig supports the faculty and the students."
Budig said that active participation was even more important this year because of reductions in services by the federal government.
RALPH GAGE, president of the board of the Lawrence United Fund,
said he was enthusiastic about student participation because this year's Encore profits would again be donated to the drive.
"I know of no other university that has that kind of support. It also says an enormous amount about the quality of students at KU," said Gage.
Bryant said the drive would attempt to reach more first-time givers by soliciting through the mail, and she said 200 new businesses had been added
to the business and industry division of the drive.
Ultimately, the success of the entire drive depends on the community, businesses and individuals, said Ghaluzi. He said that the pilot program benefits both individual worker donations and corporate gifts were increasing.
IN ADDITION to the KU division, the United Fund includes business and industry, public schools, hospitals, city
and county government, federal employees and other divisions.
Each division sets a separate goal and is run by division leaders.
Money received from the annual drive is given to the 23 agencies that put in requests for money and that are financed by the United Fund. Some programs that receive money are boys' Club, Boy Scouts, Legal Aid, Douglas Development Association, Rape Victim Support Services and Headquarters.
