WUWF
Participates
in
the
2012
Combined
Federal
Campaign
WUWF
88.1
FM,
the
National
Public
Radio
affiliate
operated
by
the
University
of
West
Florida,
is
pleased
to
be a
participating
agency
in
the
2012
Combined
Federal
Campaign
(CFC).
Much
like
the
United
Way
campaign
operates
in
the
private
business
sector,
the
CFC
enables
Federal
employees
to
contribute
to
the
causes
of
their
choice
through
a
single
campaign
conducted
once
a
year
in
all
Federal
workplaces. The
mission
of
the
CFC
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.
WUWF
will
be
participating
in
three
regional
CFC
campaigns:
EscaRosa,
Okaloosa-Walton
Counties,
and
Southwest
Alabama. These
campaigns
include
all
Federal
personnel
(military
and
civilian)
from
Naval
Air
Station
Pensacola,
Whiting
Field,
Corry
Station,
Saufley
Field,
Eglin
Air
Force
Base,
Hurlburt
Field,
and
all
Federal
offices
located
in
Escambia,
Santa
Rosa,
Okaloosa,
and
Walton
County
areas
in
Florida,
as
well
as
Baldwin
County,
Alabama.
“We
have
a
large
number
of
listeners
and
supporters
who
work
for
the
Federal
government
in
this
area,”
said
Pat
Crawford,
Executive
Director
of
WUWF
Public
Media,
“many
of
whom
have
encouraged
us
to
get
into
the
Combined
Federal
Campaign.
Participating
in
the
CFC
this
year
is
particularly
important
for
us,
as
support
for
the
station
is
shifting
away
from
grant
funding
to
more
listener
support.”
For
those
Federal
employees
interested
in
designating
contributions
to
WUWF,
the
radio
station
is
listed
under
the
name
of
the
University
of
West
Florida
Foundation,
the
501(c)3
organization
responsible
for
handling
contributions
to
the
station.
