This year’s campaign theme for the Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) of the National Capital Area, Be a Star in Someone’s Life! Support CFC, highlights the role donors play in the lives of people who benefit from CFC contributions.

To be eligible to receive CFC donations, charities must meet eligibility and accountability standards set forth in regulations governing the campaign. This year’s “Catalog of Caring” lists almost 4,000 participating non-profit and social welfare organizations.

HRSA employees who want to contribute to a designated charity should contact their office’s CFC Keyworker, who can explain how to contribute to the campaign. The easiest way to help your favorite charity is through automatic payroll deductions; your Keyworker can set that up for you. Also, visit the new online tool to search for your favorite charity by using the Online Pledge Assistance.

Remember, contributions to CFC charities are 100% tax deductible! For more information, contact your Keyworker, your Bureau/Office Coordinator, HRSA CFC Chairman Tanya Grandison, or visit the National Capital Area CFC's Web site.
