The need is so great right now. More than ever, nonprofit agencies depend upon us, not just for the services we provide to the public, but for our generosity through the local CFC. Our goal is to contact 100% of Federal employees and Military personnel in our region with this message, to motivate 35% of us to participate in the CFC, and to raise $4 million for these worthy causes. Your goal can be to make a difference in the lives of people living in your community, the State of California and even the nation: please consider donating one hour of pay per month. You may have heard that some nonprofits, including the American Civil Liberties Union, the Sierra Club and Amnesty International USA, have removed themselves from the CFC. If you wish to support them, you can do so directly. However, I encourage you to also continue your support for the many deserving organizations that benefit from CFC. Please join us this year and affirm your power to give something back to our community. Sincerely, H. Joan Ehrlich U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission Chair, Combined Federal Campaign ★ a2 epp_SF_Booklet_2004 9/4/04 5:39 AM Page 1 Table of Contents DONOR APPRECIATION & LEADERSHIP GIFTS...........2 2003 EAGLE CLUB MEMBERS..............................................4 2004 COMBINED FEDERAL CAMPAIGN ...........................6 CFC CAMPAIGN INFORMATION.........................................8 2003 SECTOR CHAIR AWARD WINNERS ...........................9 PLEDGE CARD INSTRUCTIONS ........................................10 FEDERAL PAY GUIDELINES...............................................11 EAGLE LUNCHEON ...................................Inside Back Cover NATIONAL / INTERNATIONAL The POWER of GIVING ORGANIZATIONS...................................................................12 Animal Charities of America .................................................................................12 Military, Veterans & Patriotic Service Organizations of America ........................13 Women, Children & Family Service Charities of America...................................15 Human & Civil Rights Organizations of America ................................................16 Conservation & Preservation Charities of America ..............................................18 United Way of America..........................................................................................21 Sports Charities, USA ............................................................................................22 Educate America! ...................................................................................................22 Human Service Charities of America ....................................................................24 United Service Organizations (USO) ....................................................................25 Earth Share..............................................................................................................25 National/ International Unaffiliated Organizations ..............................................27 Christian Charities USA.........................................................................................36 Community Health Charities..................................................................................38 Christian Service Charities.....................................................................................39 America’s Charities.................................................................................................42 National Black United Federation of Charities .....................................................43 American Red Cross...............................................................................................44 Children First - America’s Charities.......................................................................44 Health & Medical Research Charities of America................................................45 Medical Research Charities....................................................................................49 Human Care Charities of America.........................................................................50 What Your Dollar Can Do Hispanic United Fund.............................................................................................52 ★ $10 per month can pay for one month of home The Arts Federation ................................................................................................53 delivered meals for one senior living in isolation.
