WASHINGTON, D.C. — This year’s Combined Federal Campaign kicked off in October, continuing the theme of "Give Happy." Since its inception, CFC has raised over $8.7 billion for charitable causes, demonstrating the incredible potential of federal employees united in generosity. Last year, Forest Service employees pledged $329,376. This year, we set an ambitious new goal of $350,000.

Our commitment to service is at the heart of the Forest Service mission. Just as we protect and nurture our forests, CFC allows us to nurture communities and support causes that align with our values. Your contributions, no matter the size, create ripples of positive change that extend far beyond our forests. If you haven’t given yet, but still want to, you have two more days. The campaign closes Jan. 15. For more information on CFC and its efforts, visit GiveCFC.org.
