Joined: Nov 2007 Posts: 681 | I received this inquiry from one of my contacts: Does OCF work through the Combined Federal Fund (CFC)? I am a federal employee and was interested in donating this way. Please let me know what name to look under.
I have sent this person's email address and the query to Megan but if any one has the answer, please post here.

Joined: May 2002 Posts: 2,152 | Charm, The links you put in your posts prior to the one above take us directly to the facebook page which is why Don and I had problems connecting from our offices. Your link in the above post seems correct. Folks, if you use Megan's link or the above link you will get two options, one face book and one non facebook. Then you know that you are in the challenge contest link. Anyway, just made my donation. Remind me to put in for the company match tomorrow. Take care, Eileen

Joined: Mar 2008 Posts: 3,082 | My comments and what I see are all based on clicking on the non facebook page that comes up with this link OCF giving challenge contest I will not use the d word since it confuses what to click on. Just GIVE tonight. Or first thing tomorrow before 2:59pm EST. So just click on the link above and walk thru the process We can win this for OCF and get an extra grand. The night is still young (although close to my bedtime since I have to get up at 3:30 am to get my wife to the polling place by 5 am as she is an election offical)

Joined: Mar 2008 Posts: 3,082 | Eileen sounds more like a "cookie" hijacking you facebook users. anyway, as you say, the link goes to a page with a facebook and non facebook link. The non facebook link does not remember anything about prior donations as I had to fill it all out again just like I did last week when I was testing these links. OCF giving challenge

Joined: Mar 2008 Posts: 3,082 | Well at 4 am, we are number 17, with a meager 21 donations. I do not want to discourage anyone but with the top three already over 500 each, I am hoping everyone is waiting until today and the last minute to give.
