Combined Federal Campaign
The Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) is the official workplace-giving campaign for Federal employees and retirees.
Every year, we raise money, and volunteer for our favorite charities, spreading happiness worldwide one gift at a time. Since its inception, this Federal tradition has raised nearly $8.7 billion for charities and people in need.
"Donate to something you support, and you can feel good about it. Donors can also pledge service hours and give back there. It is a win-win-win through the CFC," Victoria Thomas, U.S. Department of Defense.
Whether you care about finding a cure for diseases, or supporting military families, the CFC has a charity for any cause you want to support. Haven't made up your mind which charity to support? Discover some of the wonderful CFC charities by reading success stories about the people who have been helped.
Federal employees and retirees are encouraged to join the CFC community to help support the missions of thousands of participating charities. You can give to the charities you care about through payroll deduction, sign-up to volunteer, and Be the Face of Change. Give Happy at GiveCFC.org.
Through the CFC, Federal employees can make charitable donations and pledge volunteer hours to charities you care about. Join the thousands of Federal employees and retirees who donate through payroll deductions and GIVE HAPPY year-round.
The CFC offers four ways to give:
- Visit the CFC Online Giving System to get started.
- Paper Pledge Form: Download a pledge form and get instructions on how to fill it out and submit it.
- Text-to-Donate: Text the word Donate to 978-487-5678 to receive the link to the pledge page.

As a Federal employee, you can also pledge volunteer hours to charities that accept them. CFC charities need your time and talent in addition to your monetary donations. Contact your DoDEA Key Worker for assistance.
