Enron's Matching Gift Program

Tim -- Cindy manages this program.
Mary -- please give some thought to how we might solicit employee views on
this.
Cindy -- I believe we already allow matching of donations to quasi-religious
organizations: religious schools, for example, and perhaps relief
organizations like Catholic Relief Services? I think that if we want to
consider extending it we should probably discuss it in a smaller group than
the e-speak forum -- the Enron Foundation Board perhaps? This could become
controversial, though (recall the Planned Parenthood debate and the periodic
attempts of shareholders to add restrictions through the proxy mechanism).

Subject: Enron's Matching Gift Program

Here is one I just know you will like to spend time on. I want to try to
convince us to change our matching gift program to allow matching of gifts to
religious organizations. My suggestion: hold a discussion on eThink, and the
let employees cast a vote. Please advise.
