CAMPAIGN.  REF C IS DOD INST, COMBINED FEDERAL CAMPAIGN (CFC) FUNDRAISING

RMKS/1.  In 1961, President John F. Kennedy signed an Executive Order 
authorizing Federal employees and members of the uniformed services to 
support and facilitate fundraising on behalf of voluntary agencies through 
on-the-job solicitations.  Implementing the order took the form of an annual 
CFC in which eligible voluntary agencies are approved to participate.  Since 
that time, Federal employees and military personnel have donated over $8.4B 
through the CFC.

2.  References (a) and (b) announced the start of the 2020 annual CFC 
campaign, which runs from 21 September 2020 through 15 January 2021.  The 
most important objective of this annual campaign is to ensure Federal 
employees, Sailors, and Marines are made aware of the CFC and are given the 
opportunity to donate to their favorite non-profit charity no matter where 
they are.  As we continue to confront and battle this global pandemic, the 
Department of the Navy (DON) and our senior leaders must remain steadfast in 
our support to CFC.  I encourage you to provide your full support, 
commitment, and virtual leadership to all CFC efforts in and around your 
installations to maximize the campaigns objectives.  The DON can perform this 
mission safely while still helping others in need.

3.  Thanks to the generosity of our DON employees, CFC remains a major 
supporter of non-profit organizations within our communities.  With your 
support in 2020, this campaign will continue to provide the DON the 
opportunity to make continuous positive difference.

4.  References (c) and (d) along with additional information and resources 
are available through https://givecfc.org/.  You can direct questions 
concerning the CFC campaign to Ms. Min Cox, DON Charitable Campaigns 
Administrator, who can be reached at (703) 571-7059 or e-mail at 
min.cox@navy.mil.

5.  Released by the Honorable Kenneth J. Braithwaite, Secretary of the 
Navy.//
