Food For Thought
If half of the 38,000 federal employees in across
the Metroplex—
 donated $10.00 per pay check, the campaign
would raise almost $5 million!
 donated $15.00 per pay check, the campaign
would raise almost $7.5 million!
The #1 reason federal
workers do not give??
“NO ONE ASKED ME!!”
Thank everyone you speak with.
It takes several “thank you’s” before a person truly
feels appreciated.

deduction.
3. MINIMUM PAYROLL DEDUCTION gift is $3.00 per pay period.

5. Contributors using payroll withholding must sign the authorization at the bottom
of the card.
6. Contributors checks must be made payable to Combined Federal Campaign. Checks
payable to a designated charitable organization cannot be accepted.

contribution to a charity on the approved Charity List – the CFC Charity List
is also online at www.dfwmetroplexcfc.org This is done by placing the five
digit code number in the box labeled “Five Digit Charity Code.” Be sure this is
a valid number and that it is legible.
8. DO THE MATH. Ensure all calculations are correct before processing the pledge
card, if there is an error, you must get it corrected before submitting the card to
your coordinator.

contribution.
10. Release of contributor names to designated charities. (Optional)
