The 2006 Combined Federal Campaign-Overseas has begun and ends Dec. 1.
The CFC is the only campaign authorized to solicit donations from
employees in the federal workplace on behalf of charitable
organizations. The campaign motto is “Make a World of Difference.”
Soldiers and civilians in the Army in Europe can make a difference by
contributing to their favorite charities through the CFC. More than
1,800 national and international charitable organizations are
participating in the campaign. Each year millions of dollars are raised
during the campaign. Last year our donations exceeded $3 million.
Some of these donations directly support our military communities in
Europe. Through the CFC-Overseas, contributors may designate donations
for their family support and youth programs. One hundred percent of
these funds are returned to the community of origin where they are used
to support quality-of-life programs for Soldiers, Department of Defense
civilians, and their families. Last year we received more than $90,000
for our family support and youth programs.
Helping those in need here in the European theater, in the United
States, and elsewhere around the world is an affirmation of the
American spirit. The CFC is a valuable and reliable program through
which we can express our desire to help. I charge leaders and
supervisors across the Army in Europe to support this campaign in their
organizations and communities. The CFC goal is to give every Soldier
and civilian employee an informed opportunity to participate.
I strongly encourage everyone to give generously to his or her charity
of choice. Doing so will help make a world of difference for the Army
in Europe.
