Department of Defense uniformed and civilian personnel continue to give back to help people and communities in need in military communities, across the nation and around the world. Since October 4, personnel in the five combatant commands pledged more than $10 million through the Combined Federal Campaign-Overseas (CFC-O). Recognizing the need is greater than ever, the commands have extended their campaigns to Dec. 15, 2010. The campaign features more than 2,300 organizations working to address the many critical needs throughout the world. Many of these charities support reintegration programs for service members overseas, as well as various other programs for veterans, active duty service members, and their families. The CFC-O, managed by Global Impact, offers contributors the opportunity to give using the traditional paper pledge card or through e-Giving at www.cfcoverseas.org. Contributors can also elect to support their local overseas military communities through the Family Support and Youth Programs (FSYP). Donations to FSYP are returned to the installation to support quality of life programs. Find out more at www.cfcoverseas.org or from your local area CFC-O representative.
