There are millions of reasons to give to the Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) ... and each one has a name and a face. Helping people is what the CFC is all about. Your pledge will change the lives of people in need. Just think about some of the people your contribution can help ...$4 a month buys 145 pounds of food for a food bank.
$8 a month funds a weaving project for a group of poor women in Asia to produce hand-woven cloth for sale in their local markets.
$10 a month will pay for a complete platelet count for two children going through cancer treatment.
$10 per pay period provides diabetes risk tests to 13,000 individuals.
$12 a month pays 5 month's salary for an adult literacy teacher.
$15 a month provides a student with a school lunch each day.
$30 a month will buy three week's worth of medication for an AIDS Trial participant.
$35 a month buys clothing for three homeless American children.
$46 a month purchases livestock so 11 families in Africa can be self-sufficient for food.
There are more than 4,000 approved charities ready to accept your donation. Your gift to the CFC is strictly voluntary. If you do decide to pledge, how much you give and whether you wish to designate your support to a specific charity is your decision. Most employees elect to pledge an amount to be withheld regularly from their paycheck while others give a one-time gift during the campaign. When a CFC canvasser comes to your work unit, remember how your generosity will shape the lives of people in your community, across the country, and around the world.
