As we prepare for the kick-off of Enron,s 2001 United Way Campaign, Building 
Houston,s Future, we are asking our top-level executives to set the standard 
of giving during the Leadership Giving Campaign that will run from July 23 
through August 3.

The decision to focus this year,s campaign on Building Houston,s Future came 
directly from our employees, who rallied to help Houston recover from the 
flood damage caused by Tropical Storm Allison. Enron employees have expressed 
a strong desire to continue assisting those in need until our city fully 
recovers, so our adopted agencies were selected with flood relief in mind. 
Each business unit is also adopting United Way Scholars students, who will 
participate in the Days of Caring. United Way Scholars builds Houston,s 
future business leaders by targeting talented students who may be overlooked 
by other scholarship programs.

Last year, your generosity took Enron to new heights. We raised $2.8 million, 
which was 21 percent higher than our original goal. In order for Enron to 
achieve even greater success this year, we invite you to join us in becoming 
a member of the prestigious Alexis de Tocqueville Society by making a pledge 
of $10,000 or more to United Way.  

You are invited to join us at an Alexis de Tocqueville Breakfast on Tuesday, 
July 31 from 7:30 a.m. ) 9 a.m. to learn more about the Society and hear 
about Enron,s 2001 United Way Campaign plans.

The Breakfast will be held at the Center for the Retarded at 3550 West 
Dallas. Center for the Retarded is one of Enron,s four adopted agencies for 
the 2001 campaign. Transportation from the Enron Building to The Center will 
be provided; however, if you prefer to drive yourself, we will send out 
directions a few days prior to the breakfast. Please RSVP to Zulie Flores at 
ext. 3-3908 or zulie.flores@enron.com by Thursday July 26.

Leadership giving solicitation officially begins on Monday, July 23, so look 
for an e-mail on Monday morning with more information about the overall 
campaign and how to make your pledge on-line. If you have any questions about 
the Alexis de Toqueville Society, or about this year,s campaign, please 
contact Kathy Mayfield, Enron,s United Way Campaign Coordinator, at 
713-853-3264 or Kathy.Mayfield@enron.com. 

At 49 Society members last year, Enron had the highest number of members in 
the city, and ranked nationally in the top 25 companies for total membership. 
We want to thank you for your generosity as this truly indicates how giving 
each of you are. 

Your support is needed more than ever and is the key to surpassing our 
campaign goals for 2001. We look forward to seeing you at breakfast on the 
31st.
