;'A broad range of health, minority, women's and
? ? environmental groups, protesting what they say is
? attempt to kick them out of the federal gov-
...grnment's annual charity drive, have asked Pres-
.-ldent Reagan to reject a United Way proposal to
!~m t eligibility in the Combined Federal Cam
_... jpaign. r
? Most of the'groups "readmitted to the CFC
? under. the terms of an executive finder issued last
.'year by the president. They said they have heard
the White House is considering issuing a new
otder that would result in about three. dozen "non
traditional" charity organizations being kicked out
of.the campaign, at an estimated loss to them of
mere than $4.5 million.
"Federal employes like having a broader range
0 ...dharities to support," the groups said in a letter
t0-.Reagan signed by 18 organizations, among
thin the Native American Rights Fund, the Com
rnittee' for Responsive Philanthropy, the Center
f f Science in the Public Interest, and legal de-
fegse funds for Federally Employed Women and
Ii Sierra, Club, They. urged him to reject the
U ited Way proposal as directly contradicting
j eagan's efforts to increase private giving.
Last September, United Way of America asked
the White House to restrict participation. in the
CSC to "charitable agencies providing direct, hu-
roan-care services in the fields of health and wel-
fare, including health research." United Way ar-
.that inclusion of less traditional service
:-groups had hurt charity contributions.
T=The example cited in the letter to Reagan was
.fie National Right to Work Legal Defense Foun-
fation, whose admittance to the CFC last year,
United Way said, had sparked a boycott of the
;campaign by some unions.
.- .. CFC raised SS; million in employe contribu-
:_ Lions in 1981, $12 million of it in the Washington
aBut a controversy in recent years over the
number and types of organizations that should be
-:allowed to participate has kept the campaign in
legal and political upheaval.
Some groups, usually those long established in
the drive, have argued that opening the campaign
t+; many, new organizations confuses givers and
~. spreads contributions too thin. But groups who
ha:e gone to court to gain admittance say expand-
ing the CFC has increased overall donation by
providing . wider chwice of charities.
When c.^.;p ode; have more choice ulf char-
ities to support, they give more," the charity
groups said in their letter, to be sent to Reagan
today. They said that, according; to the Office
of
Personnel Management. charitable giving in fed-
eral offices is up more than 7 percent this year,
the first time since 1977 that the increase in giv-
ing outpaced inflation.
