1 jul 1961 año - Roberta Patrick becomes
part-time executive secretary of the
Community Givers of Iowa City, Coralville,
and University Heights
Descripción:
This was one of United Way's first long-term, paid positions. The position was necessary to ensure that workplace pledges were returned on time.
In her time as executive secretary, Patrick enacted the Community Givers’ early non-discrimination policy. One agency recieving funds refused adoption rights to non-Christians, and she refused to work with them until this policy was adapted to be more inclusive.
