Combined Federal Campaign- Overseas Underway Your opportunity to give to your favorite charity through the Combined Federal Campaign- Overseas (CFC-O) began Sept. 8. The CFC-O is the annual workplace giving campaign for the five overseas unified combatant commands. The Defense Finance and
Accounting Services (DFAS) myPay system offers contributors the opportunity to electronically pledge via payroll allotment. In addition, the CFC-O eGiving system allows contributors to complete a one-time or monthly recurring paperless contribution via credit card, debit card or transfer from a checking or savings account. Contributors can access their giving options and a list of charities at www.cfcoverseas.org by clicking the “Donate” button. Be on the lookout for your unit coordinator.

Volunteers and Trick or Treat Space Decorators Needed for Spooktacular This year’s Spooktacular event will be held at the Support Site Central Park on Friday, Oct. 31 from 6 to 10 p.m. Teens and adults can register to volunteer for the hayride, distribute tickets, decorate the event or help out with activities. Groups, families and private organizations can adopt a Trick or Treat space for free, but have to decorate it and have people available to hand out candy, which MWR will provide. Trick or Treat space decorators could win a Bowling Party or 3D Movie Party for up to 30 people. Food vendor spaces are already full, but officially recognized private organizations can call to be put on the waiting list. Find out more details by calling DSN 629-4722 or 081-8114722.
