2 White Falcon September 18, 1981 CFC begins Septe The 1982 Combined Federal Cam- paign (CFC) will begin on the NATO Base on September 21 and will run through October 31. Voluntary campaign gifts will assist 21 International Service Agencies, American Red Cross, USO, and 27 National Health Agencies in their respective missions of service to people in the States, on the NATO Base, and around the world. The goal is to offer each DoD staff member, military or civilian, the opportunity to assist persons with problems to improve life situations through the medium of CFC agencies. This year’s campaign theme, "Put a Little Love in Your Heart and Give Generously Through the CFC," illu- strates the person-to-person ap- proach of the CFC campaigns, ac- cording to NATO Base chairman LCDR M. L. Sundin, the IceDeFor Public Affairs Officer. "The agencies of the CFC are the link between caring persons and those suffering distress, for those requiring health, safety, and welfare services," LCDR Sundin explained. CFC contributions provide funding to volunteer, non-profit organiza- tions on the local, national and international level. Funds go to such groups as the Boy Scouts of America, the Girl Scouts of the U.S.A., Save the Children, Planned Parenthood, CARE, the Pearl S. Buck Foundation, Helen Keller Interna- tional, Project Hope, the U.S. Com- mittee for UNICEF, and many more. Your contributions enable these or- ganizations to provide welfare, re- creation, and social health assis- tance to servicemen and women, in- cluding you and your family. In addition, these non-profit, volun- tary agencies aid millions of men, women, and children all over the world who suffer from hunger, pover- ty, and disease. The Secretary of Defense, Caspar W. Weinberger, who was CFC Chairman in 1974, said, "I learned how necessary it is for us all to sup- port this vital effort. I hope our Department of Defense community overseas will be particularly re- sponsive this year. The lists of the needs and the needy are long, but the CFC offers a means through which we may aggregate our assis- tance so that it will help millions around the world." mber 21 Last year's campaign raised more than $6.5 million worldwide, with the NATO Base contributing $47,935. This local figure bettered 1980's mark by over $4,400. "As an added incentive to give this year, the U.S. Office of Personnel Management has approved the NATO Base's re- quest to use 10 percent of the money collected locally for dependent youth activities," LCDR Sundin said. Those wishing to participate may pledge through the payroll allot- ment plan or by direct contribu- tions. Through the payroll allot- ment plan, donations may be spread over 12 months, beginning with the first pay period in 1982. If de- sired, one or more agencies may be designated, and all contributions are tax deductible. Contact your 'ommand CFC representative to make a ; ledge. Many people feel helpless and overpowered by the sufferings of millions around the world, but when you contribute to the CFC, you help produce a positive feeling of hope that energizes us and benefits people close by, back home, and around the globe.
