He added that while great strides have -been made in technology, there is stills long way to go. , People are always saying the foundation is forever asking for money, and the reason they are asking for money .is because they are fighting for a great cause, he explained. He told the group that they can convince people to contribute if they have a cause. "I think when you-make.collections for a very valuable cause, youshould be spirited," •he said. "You should raise your sights and the sights of the people you work with. Look up." • — There were others at the meeting that echoed Mr. Goldsmith's enthusiasm for the foundation. One was the co-ordinator for the Huron County Chapter, Joan Van den Broeck. She said she feels her worst sense of loss ii the fact that she can't meet with all the people that are out working for the cause and give them her thanks. "Without you, there would be nothing, ab- solutely_nothing. You are the important peo- ple in the foundation," she stated. The regional manager, Jane Vincent, also had some good things to say about Huron County. 91 would like to thank the Huron County Chapter, there are a lot of excellent -things that come out Of the chapter. You come up with seme super 1i1. Plecite keep the ideas coming, you're worth listening to." she told the group. Overall, she noted that things are looking good for the foundation this year, and that while some chapters need a push, many like Huron County are doing very well. The President of the •Huron County Branch, Stan Connelly, concluded the meeting. "In leaving here tonight, none of us are untouched by the sorrow of heart disease; at the same time, each of us in this area are making it better • for research develop- ment." He added that through their efforts, "Someone close to us will be living a bit longer." • CLINTON - The Huron County Chapter Of In Stanley Township there was a $149.65 the Heart and Stroke Foundation has .sur- drop from $1,688.65 to $1,539 while therewas passed their $53,000 collection goal for 1987. an increase ' of • $24.63 in •Tuckersmith • .This announcement was made during the - Township from $1,404.77 to $1,429.40. • foundation's second annual post. campaign "I think in general that most areas have review meeting, held.in Clinton on April 8. done well.
