The Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) is a long-standing tradition and the official workplace giving program for U.S. federal employees and retirees. Since 1961, the CFC has raised over $8.7 billion to support charities and people in need. Through this campaign, members of the federal community go above and beyond their public service by pledging to organizations like The Apostles’ House, which work to improve the quality of life for families in need.

Federal employees and retirees represent a strong, caring community through the CFC, dedicated to making a difference for those in need. The CFC, an OPM initiative, offers the Federal community the opportunity to donate to thousands of participating charities. Here’s how it works: 

1. Choose your cause. Whether you care about finding cures for diseases, supporting military families, or promoting equality, the CFC has vetted charities for causes you are passionate about. You can even give to multiple charities with one pledge.

2. Complete your pledge. It’s easy to GIVE HAPPY by donating a little from each paycheck or pledging a few volunteer hours a month at GiveCFC.org. 

The online giving system allows you to easily renew your pledge each year and offers the full range of options: 

• Payroll deduction (the most popular!) 
• Credit/debit card 
• E-check/bank transfer 
• Volunteer hours (Federal employees only) 

Other options include paper pledge forms, the CFC Giving Mobile App, and Text-to-Donate. 

3. Make an impact.  Thousands of charities receive the support they need throughout the year. Just $5 per paycheck to your favorite charity makes a big difference! It adds up to so much happiness when we give together.

If you, a family member, friend, or colleague are a federal employee or retiree, please consider selecting The Apostles’ House through the CFC by using our charity code #90259.

Together, we can change lives—one gift at a time!
