Department Order No. 8
Headquarters
Department of Maryland, January 28, 2005
Whereas the National Order
has saw fit to establish a SUVCW
Foundation to assist in the furtherance
of the ideals of our Order.
And, whereas the SUVCW
Foundation is a 501c3 organization, which
allows that donations to it are
considered tax deductible.
Now, therefore, I as
Commander of the Maryland Department
SUVCW do hereby challenge the camps of
the Maryland Department to make donations
to the SUVCW Foundation.
All donations received from
individuals and camps by the Department
Encampment on April 23, 2005 will be met
dollar for dollar by the Department
Commander up to $1000.00.
In addition my employer will
match my $1000.00 donation to the SUVCW
Foundation dollar for dollar as well.
Therefore if the camps rise
to the challenge the Maryland Department
will present at least $3000.00 to the
SUVCW Foundation at the annual National
Encampment in August.
Make checks payable to the
SUVCW and forward them to the Department
Secretary/Treasurer Eugene G. Mortorff
1579 Lodgepole Court Annapolis, MD 21401.
Please be sure to include a note that it
is for the Foundation Challenge.
In Fraternity,
Charity, and Loyalty,
James R. Hanby,
Sr.
