Approved Fo elease 2001/09/04: CIA-RDP85-0037 000200240%%691973 MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Finance SUBJECT Use of Payroll Computer Files for the Preparation of CFC/EAF Pledge Cards 1. Paragraph 5 requests your authorization to access the payroll computer Master File and extract appropriate identifying data for recording on the new CFC/EAF pledge cards. 2. In the past, the administration of the Agency's annual Consolidated Fund Campaign required many hours verifying information required on the CFC card for payroll deduction. Since the information required by the Office of Finance for payroll deduction was not on the regular printed CFC card, written instructions were given to employees concerning the information needed. In a majority of the cases, the cards received contained inaccurate or unnecessary data and, as was the more common problem, numerous phone calls and a delay in processing these and other CFC cards. This year for the first time payroll deduction is available to employees who wish to use this procedure for contributions to the Educational Aid Fund. With this additional requirement, it becomes more essential to attempt to eliminate some of the errors and delays previously mentioned. 3. In order to obtain better coverage and enhance our control over the information required from the contributors, we would like to record the participants name and other identi,,fying information on the pledge card prior to distribution of these cards to office chairman. In addition, we wish to obtain a list similar to the T$A Control list which is presently produced by the payroll system. This list will be used to control the distribution and subsequent accounting of the pledge cards. 4. It is felt that the results will be mutually beneficial to our respective Offices. Distribution and control of the cards will be enhanced. In addition, pertinent information such as employee name and number, month and day of birth, etc., will guarantee the validity of this data in processing pledge cards which are to be paid by payroll deduction.

Preliminary discussions have been held with representatives of the Office of Joint Computer Services regarding the impact this requirement may have on programmer resources which are currently being utilized in completing the final stages of the revised payroll system. It appears that payroll programmers would not be used for this purpose, since the expertise needed to extract this information will be obtained from another component of OJCS. 5. Inasmuch as the only complete computer file in which both staff and contract employee data is recorded in the payroll Master file, your approval is requested to access this File for the purposes stated above.

This year's campaign will combine into a single drive the solicitation efforts of the United Givers Fund, the American Red Cross, the National Health Agencies, and the International Service Agencies. The recipients of the campaign will include more than 150 local, national and international agencies in the diversified fields of health, welfare, and social service. On your Contributor's Card you may designate specific charitable organizations and the amount you wish to contribute to each. If you do not designate particular agencies, your contribution will be included with the total uncommitted gifts to CFC. These are then apportioned by CFC to all listed organizations.

The Public Service Aid Society (PSAS) provides emergency financial assistance to Agency personnel both at headquarters and in the field. The purpose of the Educational Aid Fund (EAF) is to assist parents to pay for the higher education of their children. Assistance is granted on the basis of financial need, scholastic record, and the demonstrated willingness of the children to contribute to their own education.
