What is the CFC? The Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) is the only authorized solicitation of Federal employees in their workplaces on behalf of approved charitable organizations. The CFC began in the ealy 1960's to coordinate the fundraising efforts of various charitable organizations so that the Federal donor would only be solicited once in the workplace and have the opportunity to make charitable contributions through payroll deduction. Federal employees continue to make the CFC the largest and most successful workplace philantropic fundraiser in the world. Continuing a long-standing tradition of selfless giving, in 2006, Federal employees raised over $273 million dollars for charitable causes around the world. |

Structure of the CFC The CFC is made up of local campaigns that organize the annual fund raising effort in Federal workplaces in the United States and abroad. Each local campaign is managed by the Local Federal Coordinating Committee (LFCC), which serves as the "Board of Directors" for the local campaign. The LFCC is comprised of Federal employees and representatives of labor unions with Federal employees as members. The LFCC is responsible for the oversight of the local CFC. In conformance with CFC regulations and policies, the LFCC makes admission determinations for lcoal charities and selects a Principal Combined Fund Organization (PCFO) to administer the day-to-day operations of the campaign and to serve as its fiscal agent. The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) regulates the CFC and provides guidance and oversight to the local campaigns (LFCCs and PCFOs). |
