The Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) is the world's largest and most successful annual workplace philanthropic giving campaign, with 36 CFC Zones throughout the country and overseas raising millions of dollars each year. 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 and retirees the opportunity to improve the quality of life for all.

OPM Form 1654-B is a new information collection that collects CFC pledge information from federal annuitants and military retirees according to Executive Order 13743 signed October 13, 2016. It will be available in both paper format and as an electronic form administered by the CFC's Central Campaign Administrator according to 5 CFR 950.106(a). After the 2022 campaign year, OPM plans to phase out the collection of the paper form and convert this to an entirely electronic process.
