LETTER FROM THE CO-CHAIR
                           CHAIRMEN

        It is a privilege to serve as Co-Chairmen
                                          Chairmen for the 2018 Southern California Combined Federal
        Campaign (CFC). As Federal workers, Postal service employees and Military personnel, our
        participation in the CFC is essential to the campaign which raises over $100 million for charities
        annually. Participating
                            ating charities depend upon contributions to provide essential services here at
        home and around the world. Whether you give by payroll deduction, check, or credit/debit card,
        your pledge makes so much possible for so many. **Please know that no cash or money  mon orders
        will be accepted this CFC season.**

        Last year, the federal workforce of our region donated more than $3 million dollars to hundreds
        of worthy charitable organizations, providing much needed services to those in need. We are
        excited to work with the new charities and federal agencies, post offices and military units.

        The 2018 campaign offers a wide choice of charities to choose from with more than 8,000 local,
        national and international charities. This includes charities outside our campaign area known as
        the “CFC All-Around-Giving”
                               Giving” option, allowing personnel to pledge to charities in their hometown,
        or other locations they have a personal connection to. Only local charities that are in the

        region, visit www.southerncalcfc.org and click DONATE (you do NOT need to make a pledge to
        search for charities). Select the search engine (Find A Charity) that will allow you to review
        charities BEFORE you make an online donation. You can place the charity’s code on your
        paper pledge card or donate online.

        On behalf of the Southern California CFC Local Federal Coordinating Committee (LFCC),
                                                                                           (LFCC) we
