Title from item or accompanying material.
The United Black Appeal was introduced by the United Front Foundation, Inc. in order to raise funds for Foundation, United Front, and for the community. The Black Community was not receiving what it felt was its fair share of funds from the Massachusetts Bay United Fund and so brought United Black Appeal to the public. They approached large corporations, universities, and businesses within the community and asked that employees be allowed to stipulate that money be withheld from their paychecks for the United Black Appeal. Northeastern University was the first school to allow the deductions.
