Memorandum on the Combined Federal Campaign of the National Capital Area

May 12, 1999

Memorandum for Heads of Executive Departments and Agencies

Subject: 1999 Combined Federal Campaign of the National Capital Area

    I am delighted that Secretary of Health and Human Services Donna E. 
Shalala has agreed to serve as the Chair of the 1999 Combined Federal 
Campaign of the National Capital Area. I ask you to enthusiastically 
support the CFC by personally chairing the campaign in your agency and 
appointing a top official as your vice chair.
    The Combined Federal Campaign is an important way for Federal 
employees to support thousands of worthy charities. Public servants not 
only contribute to the campaign but also assume leadership roles to 
ensure its success.
    Your personal support and enthusiasm will help positively influence 
thousands of employees and will guarantee another successful campaign.
                                            William J. Clinton
