Fulton National's involvement in the community
(As a representative sample, Fulton National provides financial support to United Appeal, Lovett School, Westminster
School, private colleges in Georgia.}
Fulton National, according to Mr. Phillips, has a Foundation which was created 5 years ago and which does not as yet
yield substantial incomeo As a result of this the bulk of the
money donated to service organizations, etco is taken from
the bank's net profit.
Need to coordinate various service groups in the Atlanta area
in a fashion similar to United Appeal.
The ineffectiveness of Federal programs to achieve results,
ioe. Job Corps, VISTAo
The stigma of the name Urban Corpso
Summation:

its program by Fulton National Bank. The prospe cts of Fulton National
Bank providing financial support and thereby endorsing the Urb an Corps
ar" good. The relationship, however, must be carefully cultivated.
Action Taken:
Fulton N a tional has been placed on the Urb an Corps mailing list in
an effort to provide continuing information to the bank and thereby p ermit
closer observation and evaluation of the Atlanta Urban Corps.

Recommendations:
It is recommended that the Director who will assume leadership
of the Atlanta Urban Corps at the expiration of the 1969 Summer Program contact personally Mr. Phillipps and present and explain the most
thorough evaluative summary of the Atlanta Urban Corps that is obtainable. It is felt that if the program h a s achieved substantial fulfillment
of its goals and Mr. Phillipps is appraised thereof, Fulton N a tional
Bank will provide financial support.
