Be the Face of Giving in 2022
The 2022 CFC Giving Season has begun and you can be the face of giving to our Foundation!
Combined Federal Campaign (CFC)
The Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) is the official workplace giving campaign for federal employees and retirees. Over the years, the Navy Supply Corps Foundation has been the grateful recipient of your kind consideration during the campaign—Federal, postal, military, and retirees contribute to our non-profit organization. The CFC mission is "to promote and support philanthropy through a program that is employee-focused, cost-efficient, and effective in providing all federal employees the opportunity to improve the quality of life for all”.
The benefits of your CFC contributions can be seen in every program we offer the Supply Community—and it’s so easy to participate! The cornerstone of the campaign is the CFC Online Donation System. This year, the mobile giving app will integrate full payroll deduction options. For employees who may not have access to or decide not to use the electronic donation system, a paper pledge form will also be available. As we emerge from the pandemic, we hope all Members will consider this giving option—the largest and most successful annual workplace charity opportunity!
The solicitation period opened September 1, 2022, and runs through January 14, 2023. New employees may make pledges within 30 days of entry on duty, if outside of the campaign solicitation period.
Join the CFC 2022 Giving Campaign! Donate to the Foundation through the CFC ~ the Navy Supply Corps Foundation, Inc. #10281. Don't wait, visit the CFC website to sign up and name the Foundation #10281 as your charity today!

This year during our Annual Appeal, we are emphasizing a theme of “Honor Our Heritage…Invest In Our Future” and are asking for donations to help sustain the Foundation. Your financial support in the area of greatest need ensures the future stability of the Navy Supply Corps Foundation. Your donation will support our general operations, as well as efforts to promote the Supply Corps heritage and traditions that we have all grown to appreciate and treasure.

November 2022 ~ NSCF eNewsletter
Dear Fellow Supply Corps Officers and Friends,
Please take a few minutes to read the November issue of the Foundation's eNewsletter--it includes three important topics related to our Community.
Named Scholarship policy update
Beginning with the 2023-24 Scholarship Season, the Navy Supply Corps Foundation Board of Directors has revised the minimum amount for a Named Scholarship from $1,000 to $2,500 to provide for more meaningful scholarships, especially with the rising costs of higher education. This policy change will enable the Foundation to comply with the IRS restrictions and award larger scholarships to our recipients. Annual Named Scholarships can take up most of the available scholarship opportunities and reduce the ability to award higher value scholarships from the perpetual endowments. Scholarship donations less than $2,500 will still be accepted and grouped into larger scholarships, with donor recognition in The Oakleaf. In parallel, the Foundation continues to actively market and promote the Scholarship Program to increase the applicant pool and corresponding number of potential scholarships.

Planning for Social Security benefits
Social Security is part of a retirement plan for most Americans, but knowing when and how to apply social security benefits can be challenging. A retirement plan should be based on today's knowledge but allow for future adaptations as circumstances change. Certainly deciding when to collect Social Security is a major retirement decision, but there are related decisions that can influence future income. Financial planning includes learning ways to maximize your benefits. Understanding Social Security options can start you on your way to financial success in retirement. The NSCF offers a free weekly e-newsletter to assist Members with common concerns regarding retirement planning.

Professional Certification/Licenses Grant Program
Attaining a professional certification can be costly. The NSCF Professional Certification/Licenses Grant Program assists transitioning officers with the costs incurred attaining a certification or license to enhance a civilian logistics career opportunity up to $500. Examples of professional logistics certificates that are available for Supply Officers and enlisted supply personnel are: Supply Chain Professional (CSCP); Foodservice Management Professional (FMP); Certified Professional Contract Manager; and Financial Management Certification. Professional certifications and licenses can offer members a competitive advantage over candidates without certificates and lead to higher wages.
