What is the FedEx Retiree Club (FERC)?
The FedEx Retiree Club is a non-profit, tax exempt organization under section 501(c)4 of the Internal Revenue Code. Donors to the FERC may not deduct dues or contributions on individual IRS tax returns.
The club provides you the opportunity to stay in touch with people who have a common background. Club members are retirees, active employees and former employees from all FedEx Companies. Get involved by participating in ongoing club activities. If you choose, you can also make a positive difference by engaging in any of the many volunteer opportunities. Participation is what you make it!
Your membership in the club is valued regardless of your location. The club board is reaching out to members outside Memphis in order to add activities, discounts, and other things to improve the club experience for our satellite members. Your input and ideas are welcome. In fact, we have a "Lunch with FERC" program. Memphis, Colorado Springs and Denver participate in monthly meetings now. Wouldn't it be great if we all had lunch the same day at the same time in other cities around the world? Interested? Join the club to find out more!
