handle is hein.gao/gaobabfgg0001 and id is 1 raw text is: *10 BY THE COMPTROLLER GENERAL Report To The Chairman Committee On Government Operations House Of Representatives OF THE UNITED STATES Fiscal Management Of The Combined Federal Campaign The Combined Federal Campaign, the government's annual charity drive, raises millions of dollars in employee contributions. The Office of Personnel Manage- ment has overall responsibility for managing the charity drive. In 1984, over 500 separate local campaigns served different geographic areas where federal per- sonnel live and work. GAO reviewed the fiscal management of campaign contributions in 20 locations throughout the country that accounted for 38 percent of all CFC contributions received in 1984 and found that --at least 97.6 percent of all contributions at 16 of the campaigns were recorded and distributed in accordance with OPM regulations (4 campaigns were not included in this analysis); --in the absence of an OPM regulation requiring them to do so, 7 campaigns did not contact donors for clarifying instructions on improperly completed pledge cards, which resulted in thousands of donations being distributed to the wrong charities; and --3 campaigns made no effort to reduce their net fund-raising costs by de- positing idle campaign funds in interest-bearing bank accounts. GAO recommends actions that the Office of Personnel Management should take to strengthen campaign follow-up procedures regarding improperly completed pledge cards and to earn interest on idle campaign funds. C) 127770 GAO/GGD-85-69 JULY 29. 1985
