  10. Why do people give through the CFC? • CFC is convenient through payroll deduction. • Federal employees feel good knowing their contribution will make a difference to a charity that has been reviewed and audited. • Federal employees can receive recognition from the CFC and designated charities. • Protects the Federal employee from year-round, in-the-workplace solicitation by charitable agencies. • Federal employee may have received help from a charity supported through the CFC. • Federal employees know someone who has been helped by a charity. • Federal employees want to help others. • Provides greater impact, because it’s combined with contributions from other Federal employees.

  11. Electronic Pledge Options CFC NEXUS is an online E-Pledging system designed specifically for the CFC community. All employees are eligible to contribute through the CFC Nexus system. A one-time sign-in is required for all participants. To access CFC Nexus log in to our website and follow the link or go to www.cfcnexus.com/_sepalehighcfc

  12. Electronic Pledge Options CFC-EEX (Employee Express) offers employees in specific agencies the choice of making a CFC payroll deduction pledge on-line through CFC-EEX. Employee Express is a convenient, user-friendly automated system that gives employees direct control over key payroll and personnel information with out having to use forms or visit a personnel office. CFC-EEX is not mandatory for CFC pledges. CFC-EEX is another option for the Federal donor in agencies using EEX (if your agency has signed up)!

  13. CFC-EEX Participating Agencies

  14. Electronic Pledge Options The Department of Defense DFAS (Defense Finance and Accounting Service) myPay Website allows US Military personnel and their families to manage their pay information, leave and earning statements, W-2s and enter their CFC pledge amount. Each agency has a unique specific code for “Command/Unit Name”. Ask your coordinator for the code to use for “Command/Unit Name.

  15. What is it? Universal Giving (UG) is a new donation option that permits donors to pledge to any CFC participating charity no matter where the donor or the charity is geographically located. Previously, only National, International, and Local charities in our campaign territory were available to receive donors’ contributions. Now, with Universal Giving, all Local charities in all CFC regions are accessible to donors. Thus for those donors who wish to stay involved with a favored charity or charities outside the area, they may now do so through UG. For example, if you work in the State of Pennsylvania and you want to donate to a Brooklyn, New York food pantry (and they are in the CFC), with Universal Giving, this can now be achieved. INTRODUCING… CFC UNIVERSAL GIVING

  16. How does Universal Giving work? The list of UG charities can only be accessed online. UG charities are too numerous to be listed in the paper charity listing. If you wish to donate to a local charity outside our campaign territory, log in to any of our online giving tools at www.cfc-eastpa-southnj.org to search for the charity you want to support. Enter the charity’s five-digit code on your paper pledge form or the online donation tool of your choice: CFC Nexus, CFC Employee Express or MyPay, using your pc, phone or tablet. It’s that easy!
