What are the dates of the 2011 Annual Giving Drive? The King County Employee Giving Program Annual Giving Drive is from October 3 - November 18, 2011. What is the difference between the KCEGP, the CFC, and the CFD? If I am in one, am I in the others?
The KCEGP is the King County Employee Giving Program, the workplace giving program for employees of King County government.
The CFC is the Combined Federal Campaign, the workplace giving program for employees of the Federal government.
The CFD is the Combined Fund Drive, the workplace giving program for employees of the state of Washington.
All three programs have different eligibility requirements and separate application processes. Therefore, acceptance into one does not imply acceptance into the others. Please check with the other programs to see if you are a part of their campaigns.
How do I know if I am a participating agency? Agencies apply in February/March to participate in the October/ November campaign. If you are a member of a federation, your federation representative may have applied for you; either way you will have received a letter about your eligibility. You can also look on our participating nonprofit organizations page. |
