EarthShare in the Combined Federal Campaign
The 2009 Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) is under way, from now through mid-December! The CFC gives Federal employees the opportunity to donate a few dollars per paycheck to the charities and causes they care about the most. This employee giving program let you give as little as a $1 per pay period and really make a difference.
For Federal employees or members of the armed forces who are considering a donation this year, we encourage you to give through the CFC -- your gift ensures that the charities below will receive stable, regular funding with little to no administrative costs. Your annual CFC offers caring people like you the easiest, most cost-effective way to give to the nonprofit organizations working every day protect our quality of life and natural resources -- at home, across the country and around the world.
You can feel confident about your decision to give through EarthShare in the CFC. EarthShare is a Better Business Bureau Wise Giving Alliance Accredited Charity. EarthShare and its member charities are also screened annually based on our own strict eligibility criteria, and the requirements of OPM and the CFC.
Below you'll find a complete list of the EarthShare member charities you can support in the CFC, along with their designation codes. Click on the blue arrows to learn more about them!
Thank you for considering a gift in support of a healthy environment!
