• WHEREAS, for many years Vermont state employees have joined with other citizens in
  support of voluntary charitable services; WHEREAS, state employees share feelings of civic responsibility and deserve the same

  to discharge that responsibility efficiently and with the knowledge that their charitable
  contributions will be used accountably and in a way that will provide maximum benefits;
  and WHEREAS, organized charitable campaigns are permitted under 29 V.S.A. § 5. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that I, Peter Shumlin, by virtue of the authority vested
  in me as Governor of the State of Vermont, do hereby re-establish and re-constitute

  of the Governor. The Governor may delegate his appointment authority under this Order
  to the Secretary of Administration. The Committee shall be chaired by the Secretary of Administration or his or her designee.
  The Committee shall meet at the call of the Chair and may designate additional committees
  as necessary to administer the VtSHARES campaign. The Agency of Administration shall provide administrative support to the Committee. II. Charge. The Committee shall review and, if approved by the Governor, make arrangements for
  the VtSHARES campaign and other such organized charitable campaigns as the Committee
  deems appropriate to solicit funds from state employees at their places of employment
  or duty stations. In making these arrangements, the Committee shall consult with
  appropriate interested persons, organizations, state agencies and departments. Upon authorization of an organized charitable campaign by the Committee, the Committee
  shall recommend appropriate action or authorization of the campaign by the Governor
