CFC: Tinker campaign extended

  • Published

The Combined Federal Campaign for Tinker, the annual workplace giving opportunity for federal employees, has been extended to Nov. 30 to encourage federal employees and military members to contribute.

Contributions through the CFC bring help and hope to those who need it most. With more than 18,000 charities participating in the campaign, donors can support the causes that matter to them, from disaster relief to education and military support to environmental protection. Contributors are encouraged to give through payroll deduction, which adds up to a significant impact:

• $100 per pay period* supplies 35 wounded soldiers with a care package necessary for a comfortable flight home.

• $50 per pay period* vaccinates 1,040 children against polio.

• $20 per pay period* provides health care services to 26 mothers and their babies, from pregnancy to post-delivery.

• $10 per pay period* plants 260 trees.

*based on 26 pay periods

Federal employees can contribute online through MyPay, or by paper pledge form acquired from their Keyworkers.
