Combined Federal Campaign
The Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) is the largest workplace giving campaign in the World. Annually, government employees give more than $40 million to Community Health Charities and its member charities. Community Health Charities salutes the great generosity of Federal Employees without whom our agencies would not be able to provide the magnitude of programs and services available today.

When making contributions during the 2008 CFC, Community Health Charities encourages you to pay careful attention to the percentage noted for an organization’s Administrative and Fund Raising ratio (AFR). In prior years, charities could not participate in the CFC unless their AFR to revenue ratio was under 25%, or had a plan in place to achieve this number. Changes in regulations have removed this criterion. Community Health Charities maintains criteria of an AFR of 25% or lower as part of its membership qualifications.
If you would like to verify a code for a local affiliate of Community Health Charities, or one of its local member charities, please be sure to check your local CFC brochure.
