2024 Giving Tuesday Results mandy.huckins Wed, 12/04/2024 - 14:02

Results

We are THRILLED to announce the total online pledge results for Giving Tuesday - $3.1 million! YOU, dedicated and generous members of the federal community, made this happen! On behalf of all the people who will receive the help and hope they need - THANK YOU!

Reminder: What is Giving Tuesday? Giving Tuesday is a charitable response to Black Friday and Cyber Monday, founded over ten years ago. Today, it’s the world’s biggest giving day of the year. For the thousands of CFC charities, this is the most important time of the year. They rely on generous donations made this week to, in some cases, fund the entire upcoming year's worth of services they provide to beneficiaries.

IT'S NOT TOO LATE! Missed Giving Tuesday? That's ok! Charities still need your help. Click through to log into or set up your CFC online giving account and get started. Consider adding a few volunteer hours to your pledge this week in honor of International Volunteer Day on Dec 5.

NEW FOR 2024!!! Give Happy this Holiday Season

Giving Tuesday traditionally kicks off the holiday giving season, so today, the CFC is unveiling a special and timely opportunity to help donors with their gift lists. Donors are invited to download digital or printable cards to give in honor of a friend or family member. Learn more here.

2024 International Volunteer Day

mandy.huckins — Thu, 07 Nov 2024 14:54:22 +0000

2024 International Volunteer Day mandy.huckins Thu, 11/07/2024 - 16:54

What is International Volunteer Day?

Every year, on December 5th we recognize and promote International Volunteer Day. This Day began in 1985 by the United Nations as a way to thank the hard work volunteers do selflessly for and with charities globally.

This year, the CFC is inviting all federal employees and retirees to be part of a global network of amazing volunteers, and supplement your CFC gift with a pledge of volunteer hours. If you have volunteer hours pledged from last year, reach out to your charity and ask them how you can help fulfill those pledges - even virtually!

Many charities this year need help, even from home. You may be invited to use your professional skills or personal talents, and help them:

Balance a budget
Tutor children after school
Translate documents
Review a legal contract
Put together a care or hygiene package

Find CFC charities that have volunteer opportunities available via the online CFC charity search.

International Volunteer Day is a great opportunity for charities to promote volunteerism and for all of us to recognize volunteer contributions globally; campaign workers, incorporate messaging on volunteerism and the importance of pledging your own hours in your #GivingTuesday messaging.

Learn more about volunteering through the CFC here including volunteer opportunities from the charities and group volunteer efforts.
