    RE:     CFC and  SECC Application Change

The Combined Federal Campaign of North Central Texas (CFC) and the State Employee Charitable Campaign will be joining its application efforts for the 2008-09 campaign period.  With a new application submissions process taking effect immediately it is strongly encouraged that your agency attends a 2 hour application training workshop.  This workshop is designed to inform you of regulatory changes that could affect your application status; assist in the submission of a complete and thorough application; and provide critical dates, deadlines, and process details. 

Please RSVP your attendance by February 22nd to Marsha Gordon at (214) 978-2055, or electronically by submitting attendee’s name, agency, and training date to publicsectorcampaigns@unitedwaydallas.org .  Space is limited so please RSVP today.  Training dates are as follows:

    Fort Worth, TX (CFC Only), February 26th (10:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.)

            Carter BloodCare Administrative Offices

            2205 Hwy 121

            Bedford, TX  76021

    Dallas, TX (CFC and SECC), February 28th (1:00 p.m. – 3:00 p.m.)

            United Way of Metropolitan Dallas

The opening dates for both campaigns (SECC and CFC) will be March 3rd – April 3rd, 2008 with absolutely no late submissions accepted.  Agencies who take advantage of attending one of the above workshops will have the advantage of receiving the application prior to the opening date as they will be distributed at the trainings.  Those who are unable to attend the training will be provided an electronic application on March 3rd, or can download the electronic file from the web at www.cfcnctx.org for CFC and www.secctexas.org for SECC (beginning March 3rd). 

Good luck!
