Deputy Coordinator and Keyworker Resources
Welcome to the NIH Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) and thank you for agreeing to serve in a leadership capacity for this year’s CFC in your organization. You were selected for this role because you have demonstrated strong leadership skills and have been a successful manager. You will set the pace of the campaign with your enthusiasm, ability to motivate others, and commitment to meet and exceed your CFC goal. The CFC enables millions of Federal employees to improve the quality of people’s lives locally, nationally, and internationally. The organizations that receive funding through the CFC provide many services, including helping abused and neglected children, feeding the hungry, searching for cures to diseases, preserving our natural resources, and giving help and hope to those in need. There are three main reasons for the CFC’s continuing success:
- It is an easy process. Employees can contribute by payroll deduction, check, or cash. By signing up for payroll deduction, Federal workers can have a reasonable, affordable amount withheld from each paycheck that will, over a year’s time, make a substantial contribution to their favorite charities.
- It allows employees to choose which organizations will receive their contributions. Employees designate their gifts to charities with missions that are important to them by choosing from one comprehensive list of participating organizations in the 2009 Catalog of Caring.
- Federal employees make it happen. Every year hundreds of Federal employees volunteer to coordinate and plan the CFC in their workplaces, bringing their coworkers together to have fun while making a difference in their communities.
- If you are interested in purchasing CFC gifts or incentives, please see the CFC Store at www.cfcstore.com.
- Success stories wanted. Please share your campaign ideas with the other Deputy Coordinators by e-mailing them to nihcfc2009@mail.nih.gov.
