Towey on
Loan to CFC

Division Director Cheryl Keenan recently announced that Dr. Carroll Towey
has been nominated for and accepted by the Loaned Executive Program to serve
the Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) for five months. Towey will help
generate strategies for the charitable giving campaign that solicits
contributions from all federal employees for local, state, national and
international charitable organizations. He will begin training next month
when he moves to the CFC. We look forward to his return January 1.
