Now is the perfect time to make a donation to help federal employees in need.
During May, individual donations to the Federal Employee Education and Assistance Fund (FEEA) will be tripled. Your dollars will go even further to provide grants and no-interest loans to your colleagues facing financial hardships.
FEEA has helped NTEU members like Christopher Eldridge, whose wife lost her job during the holidays. A no-interest loan helped the member of Chapter 98 (IRS Memphis Campus) and his family pay their rent and get back on their feet.
Triple the impact of your donation through dollar-for-dollar matching contributions from BlueCross/Blue Shield and GEICO. Visit FEEA.org today.
