What is it?
Universal Giving (UG) is a new donation option that permits donors to pledge to any CFC participating charity no matter where the donor or the charity is geographically located. Thus for those donors who wish to stay involved with a favored charity or charities outside the area, they may now do so. For example, if you work in New Jersey and you want to donate to a Brooklyn, New York food pantry (that is participating in the local CFC), you can now use the Universal Code Number for this agency.

How does Universal Giving work?
The list of UG charities can only be accessed online through the myPay website. UG charities are too numerous to be listed in the paper charity listing. If you wish to donate to a local charity outside our campaign territory, log in to myPay (4 Digit CFC Access Code: 0751 Eastern Pennsylvania and South Jersey CFC) then search for the charity you want to support, or go to www.opm.gov/cfc and click on the Universal Giving Search Tool on the right. Enter the charity's five-digit code on your paper pledge form or myPay. It's that easy!

The Department of Defense DFAS (Defense Finance and Accounting Service) myPay Website now allows US Military personnel to enter their CFC pledge amount.
Remember, our region's myPay can be accessed with the 4 digit Campaign Code of 0751.
Once all charities have been selected, for Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst the following codes should be used in the Command/Unit Name of final donation step:

U.S. Air Force - 13820600
U.S. Army - 13822705
U.S. Marine Corps - 13822697
U.S. Nany Lakehurst - 13820907
U.S. Naval Reserve Center -13823430
U.S. Navy FRC-E/ASO - 13822390

Happy Holidays! Give for Good and thank you for your support of the CFC!
