What is the CFC?
Overseen by OPM, the CFC offers the federal community the opportunity to donate to thousands of participating charities. Every year, federal employees and retirees give thousands of volunteer hours and millions of dollars through the CFC. Together, we make a difference in communities across the US!
Learn from NIGMS employees about why they donate to the CFC!
Tony Baum, Staff Assistant, Executive Office, DOM: "I give to the CFC as a remembrance of times past, when things didn't necessarily go my way, and I was supported, in every sense of the word, by others during troubled times. That is the driving force of why I give my support, time, and effort to this very worthy cause."
Thomas Cho, Program Director, Biophysics Branch, BBCB: "Helping our neighbors is the most beautiful thing that a human being can do and is supposed to do."
Stephen Copeland, Ethics Coordinator, Executive Office, DOM: "I give to the CFC because it's simple, you can give to multiple charities & pledge volunteer hours in one place. And, I give for a greater impact - the world is a better place when we give together!"
