Federations Within the Campaign

A Federation or Federated Group is a group of voluntary charitable human health and welfare agencies organized for purposes of supplying common fund-raising, administrative, and management services to its constituent members. More than 2,400 national and international federations charities and some 25,000 local charities qualify for the CFC each year. To participate they must meet strict eligibility standards. Many national and international charities affiliate with federations, groups that have come together — often because of common interests or goals — to maximize their efficiency and effectiveness in workplace fundraising and related efforts.

You may direct your gift to one or more eligible national or international federation or charities as well as to eligible local groups operating in your community. The choice is completely yours.
