Gen Ward kicked off the US Africa Command CFC-Overseas Campaign on 4 October 2010. In order to promote CFC-Overseas, for the next 8 weeks we would like to use as many venues and resources as possible to improve our participation in "Making a Difference" in this year's campaign. We would love to hear from those who are contributing so stories and photos of CFC related events are being sought to highlight this great campaign which runs until 11 Dec 2010. Please send contributions to AFRICOM-PAO-LYnC@africom.mil.

If you want to donate but haven't yet follow these simple instructions:

1. Go to http://www.cfcoverseas.org/ used for CFC-O e-giving

2. To use the computer to electronically complete a CFC-O pledge card for a payroll allotment or cash/check contribution, click on our e-Giving program.

3. Follow the user-friendly instructions to enter your personal information, select the charities you wish to support and designate your contribution amount.

4. Print the pledge card and turn it in to your unit's CFC representative.

NOTES: The "Reporting Unit" is the individual's AFRICOM directorate i.e., Resources, IKDev, OPLOG, SPP, Outreach, c4 Systems, COS/Shared Services, Command Group/Special Staff, MARFORAF, SOCAFRICA, JFD Dir, NAVAF.

Credit/debit card and e-Check contributions can be made by accessing our e-Giving program.

1. Simply follow the user-friendly instructions to enter your personal information, select the charitable organizations you wish to support and designate your contribution amount.
