Lean, Clean and Worthy (washingtonpost.com)

Lean, Clean and Worthy (washingtonpost.com)
DISGUSTING MEMORIES of greedy executives raiding a sloppily managed agency of precious charitable donations still haunt the earnest, public-spirited community members leading today's United Way of the National Capital Area. Repairing the perceptions of a tainted operation takes time, but the organization is back on track and worthy of support. Decisions to give are personal, to be sure, but contributors who understand the unique impact of a finely tuned, one-fund effort -- efficiently channeling critical support to people with special needs, through agencies that do not have the resources to do their own fundraising -- should look closely at the United Way campaign that gets underway Sept. 13.
