REF D MEMO, NEW CFC RULES AND REGULATIONS FOR FUNDRAISING IN THE FEDERAL WORKPLACE.// RMKS/1. In 1961, President John F. Kennedy signed an Executive Order authorizing Federal employees and members of the uniformed services to support and facilitate fundraising on behalf of voluntary agencies through on-the-job solicitations. These arrangements shall take the form of an annual CFC in which eligible voluntary agencies are approved to take part. Since that time, Federal employees and military personnel have donated over 8 billion dollars through the CFC. 2. References (a) and (b) announced the start of the 2019 annual CFC campaign which runs from September 9, 2019 through January 12, 2020. The most important objective of this annual campaign is to ensure every Federal employee, Sailor and Marine is made aware of the CFC and given the opportunity to donate to their favorite non-profit charity. I encourage the Department of the Navy (DON) and our senior leaders to again support this worthy cause. I also expect you to provide visible leadership and commitment to all CFC efforts in and around your installations. 3. CFC remains a major supporter of nonprofits thanks to the generosity of our DON employees. With your support in 2019, this campaign can continue to provide the DON the opportunity to make a positive difference in our communities. 4.

You can direct questions concerning the campaign to Mr. Ray Sutton, DON Charitable Campaigns Administrator, at ray.sutton1@navy.mil or 703-571-2098. 5. Released by the Honorable Richard V. Spencer, Secretary of the Navy. BT #0001 NNNN UNCLASSIFIED//
