What is CFC?

The Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) is the annual fund-raising drive conducted by Federal employees in their workplace each fall. Each year Federal employees and military personnel raise millions of dollars through the CFC that benefits thousands of non-profit charities. This page has been developed to assist charitable organizations and other interested parties who seek information about or who have questions regarding the Combined Federal Campaign (CFC).

The mission of the CFC is to support and to promote philanthropy through a program that is employee-focused, cost-efficient and effective in providing all Federal employees the opportunity to improve the quality of life for all.

With a tradition of commitment to the community through the selfless efforts of Federal employees, the CFC has its roots in the many charitable campaigns of the early 1960s. Seeing a need to bring the diversity of fundraising efforts under one umbrella, Federal employees created the CFC---one campaign, once a year. By allowing employees to select the organizations of their choice from a single brochure and to make their contributions through payroll deductions, the CFC opened wide the door to more opportunities for generous giving to literally hundreds of worthy causes. An Executive Order made the CFC a reality, and turned an innovative idea into a uniquely effective way for Federal employees to help those in need across our community and throughout the world. The CFC continues to be the largest and most successful workplace fundraising model in the world.

 

President John Kennedy established the Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) in March 1961 to consolidate numerous charitable campaigns in the Federal work place. CFC was developed in response to Federal employee wishes for a single campaign, to reduce administrative expenditure, to permit voluntary pay withholding for contributions, and to better support local, national, and international health, welfare, and philanthropic organizations. Since its inception, the CFC has become the largest combined charity drive in the United States and the world. The CFC is on campaign, once a year—making fundraising easier for both Federal employees and charities.
