Team Vance generosity puts CFC almost halfway to 2012 goal

  • Published
As the third week of the 2012 Combined Federal Campaign at Vance Air Force Base ends, CFC workers have contacted 96 percent of eligible contributors and raised $43,514.

The donation level is well ahead of last year's campaign, said Capt. Andrew Schrag, the CFC project officer. "We are confident the generosity of Team Vance will propel us well over this year's $95,000 goal," he said.

Contributions to CFC go to international, national and local charities.

"Donating to CFC provides the assistance desperately needed by those less fortunate in Enid and surrounding areas," Schrag said.

"The success of this year's campaign is directly impacted by individual generosity. Even a small gift of a couple dollars a month can go a long way in combating poverty, hunger, lack of education and disease," Schrag said.

A CFC fun run is scheduled at 3 p.m., Oct. 21, and a softball tournament will be played later in the month.

The 2012 CFC at Vance runs through Nov. 15. For more information and to make a contribution, contact one of the unit representatives listed below.
