NARFE Honors America’s Civil Servants During Public Service Recognition Week

  • Wednesday, May 7, 2014

The Chattanooga Chapter 108 of the National Active and Retired Federal Employees Association is honored to salute the men and women who serve our country during Public Service Recognition Week, May 4-10. For nearly 30 years, the first week in May has been dedicated to recognizing the work of our military, federal, state, county and local government employees.  The theme for this year’s commemoration is “Proud to Serve.” 

This week provides us with an opportunity to pause and say, "thank you," to the millions of individuals who make our government the best in the world and to recognize the numerous ways NARFE members and their colleagues keep our government functioning efficiently and effectively without the expectation of fanfare. Please join NARFE Chattanooga Chapter 108 in expressing gratitude for the important work public servants do for America.

The National Active and Retired Federal Employees Association, one of America’s oldest and largest associations, was founded in 1921 with the mission of protecting the earned rights and benefits of America’s active and retired federal workers. The largest federal employee/retiree organization, NARFE represents the retirement interests of nearly five million current and future federal annuitants, spouses, and survivors.
