{"value"=>"<p>Budget plans, statistical tables, grant applications, memos, and other items from CARE's Finance and Procurement departments. The former, called Administrative Operations before 1964 and Financial Control from circa 1964 to 1981 deals with the budget, payroll, and other monetary concerns of CARE, and includes its Accounting, Remittance, Treasury and Insurance, and Data Processing divisions. The Procurement Department is responsible for the acquisition of agricultural commodities, MEDICO supplies, general and special purchases, and the shipping of all such materials.</p> <p>The items in this series represent only a small sample of those generated by either department. CARE has retained its recent Finance Department files and apparently routinely discarded most earlier ones. A January 1976 memo to Jack Thacher from Howard Powell, director of Procurement, mentions that the Procurement Department destroyed most of its inactive files in the early 1970s, owing to space limitations. Subseries descriptions follow.</p>"}
