The 3 Rivers Combined Federal Campaign
Members and friends of ABOARD often ask how they can participate in their workplace charity giving programs, while also helping ABOARD meet its annual program goals.
The 3 Rivers Combined Federal Campaign works with many large and small companies across the country offering 'employee designated" contributions to the charity of your choice.
ABOARD's 3 Rivers CFC number for employee-designated
contributor choice agancy is #31264.
The benefit to your family and your community is three-fold. You participate with your work-mates, you achieve goals set by your company, and you also get the assurance that your dollars will be used to fund critical programs at ABOARD.
And employers are making charitable giving very accessible. Most workplace campaigns take pledges in the last quarter of each year and offer variable payment methods for your gift in the following year. Campaigns often allow you to take out small amounts of money from your paycheck each month to fulfill your pledge. For example, writing a single check for $300 may be a strain on your budget. But that same contribution, spread out over twelve months as a monthly $25 payroll deduction, may not be as difficult.
Remember that even if your employer does not actively pursue an office-wide campaign, often they will have set up charitable giving options that you can use. Don't be afraid to ask what the company policies are.
Whether you are a seasoned contributor at your workplace or planning a first-time gift, please consider choosing or "writing-in" ABOARD as a recipient of your generosity.
