Combined Federal Campaign
ePledge Update
August 2013

ePledge Initiative
• Combined Federal Campaign donations via electronic
payroll deduction giving were previously not an option in
the DoD
• Teams from DFAS, OPM, and the VCMO collaborated to
create the first true paperless payroll deduction giving for
DoD personnel
• MyPay ePledge:
– Increases donor confidentiality
– Reduces administrative workload and administrative errors
associated with paper pledge form processing
– Reduces campaign costs which results in fewer donor dollars
being spent on overhead and more donor dollars being provided
directly to the CFC supported charitable organizations

ePledge Overview
• MyPay ePledge allows military and civilian personnel to
establish a CFC allotment within the CFC open season
• ePledge will be available to 89 of the 169 Combined
Federal Campaigns in 2013
• ePledge development was mirrored on the Employee
Express (EEX) electronic giving system
• OPM will not add additional campaigns or make changes
to the CFC module in EEX.
