Positive response for Super Sunday
chairs.

1,893 gifts for an additional $285,000.

$818,000 was raised from approxi-
mately 3,400 donors. This year, fewer
pledges — 2,304 — were made, -but
more money came in.
"The day was fabulous, based on the
number of people who volunteered to
call, and the response of the callers,"

the more successful Super Sundays
we've had since I've been here."
