An annual charity drive by federal employees is bringing in 40 percent fewer donations this year after the Trump administration decimated the federal workforce and started the drive late after considering scrapping the yearly event.
Office of Personnel Management officials said last week that this year’s Combined Federal Campaign for charities would be extended through January, but according to The Washington Post, charities that usually rely on the annual effort for fundraising are concerned that the extension won’t be effective because OPM is not extending contracts for workers who help run the project each year.
