I am pleased to announce that the Office of Combined

Federal employees selected for their outstanding CFC efforts at the White
House last year.
We hope you will help us pay tribute to the “unsung
heroes” of the 2002 Combined Federal Campaign by sending us your
nominations by
February 28, 2003
. Nominations will be reviewed
and selected by a committee composed of LFCC members, local campaign
staff, and prior year heroes. This committee will be chaired by Vince
Micone, member, National Capital Area LFCC.
The committee will review the nominations and select
one individual from each of the following four Federal communities:
Civilian, Postal, Military (Uniform), and Military (Civilian).
We hope you agree that the CFC Heroes program is a
wonderful way to highlight the CFC and the individuals who make it happen.
We encourage you to replicate this program locally as well.
