NIH’s 2021 Combined Federal Campaign will host a virtual Halloween Charity Fair and Mask Contest on Thursday, Oct. 28, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Returning this year by popular demand, the event combines fun and CFC information. Three charities will discuss their mission and how important donors are to reaching their goals.

In the contest, participants create original masks with a special theme—“Superheroes.” For details on entering your design, visit https://cfc.nih.gov/. All mask entries are due on Wednesday, Oct. 6.

The CFC is the federal government’s largest workplace giving campaign. It provides an opportunity to support favorite causes easily and efficiently. Donors choose from more than 6,000 local, national and international organizations participating in the 2021 effort.

The national CFC theme is “You Can Be the Face of Change.” NIH has a $1M goal.
