As federal employees, letter carriers can support charities of their choice by donating through the Combined Federal Campaign (CFC), the world's largest annual workplace giving program. Since its inception in 1961, the CFC has raised more than $8.7 billion for charities and people in need.
Anyone can be a changemaker through CFC! This year's campaign, "Show Some Love: Be the Face of Change," began on Sept. 1, 2024, and ends on Jan. 14, 2025.
"Letter carriers are known for taking care of our communities," NALC President Brian L. Renfroe said. "The CFC is a convenient way for letter carriers to support their favorite charities and help those in need."
NALC is directly involved with two charities eligible for support through the CFC, the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA) and United Way Worldwide. To learn more about these charities, click here.
CFC makes it easy for all federal employees to donate online and gives federal retirees an easy option for donating through deductions from their annuities. To donate online, register an account at givecfc.org.
Carriers can choose the charity or group of charities they want to support from a list of more than 2,000 eligible charities, and an amount they choose will be deducted from their paychecks each pay period and automatically sent to each charity.
