On Thursday, Nov. 4, a recognition ceremony was held at the Lakehurst gym on Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst to honor several individuals as Supergiver Eagle Donors for their contributions during the ongoing South Jersey Combined Federal Campaign.

Hosted by Col. Gina Grosso, JB MDL commander, and Valerie Scott of the South Jersey CFC, plaques were presented to Roger Ball, 87th Air Base Wing Inspector General office, Maj. Gage Anderson, Test Evaluation Squadron, Chief Master Sgt. Warren Wofford, 87th ABW command chief, and Paul McGuire, NAVAIR Lakehurst Program Management office, for their generous personal contributions to the 2010 through 2011 CFC drive.

The CFC is an important fund raiser that assists many local, regional and national charities each year by raising funds through the personal contributions of federal workers throughout the United States. This mid-point ceremony and rally was designed to recognize some of the outstanding donors on JB MDL and encourage participation of employees throughout the joint base.

"During these hard economic times, we federal employees and military members are very fortunate to be in a position to have stable employment," said Grosso. "Many of the charitable organizations that do so much to help those less fortunate than us are a part of the CFC, and much of what is contributed remains in the local area, helping our friends and neighbors. I urge all of us to contribute what we can to support this worthy campaign and these worthy causes."

The annual CFC, which has been in existence for more than 50 years, continues on JB MDL through the end of November.
