For the second year in a row, several members are participating in our co-op advertising campaign. This year the theme once again is heroes – but this year our heroes are the federal workers who participate in the yearly CFC campaign.

The Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) is the largest and most successful workplace giving campaign in the world. Over the last five decades, federal employees have generously pledged more than $7 billion dollars to nonprofit organizations, including many that are United Way of the National Capital Area (United Way NCA) members.
United Way NCA would like to extend a special thanks to all member nonprofits that have shown support to CFC through active engagement of speaking and tabling opportunities. By Living United we are able to show strength and unity as a powerful collaborative, and, most importantly, continue to help our neediest neighbors.
What to Know About the 2012-2013 Combined Federal Campaign
-
Putting our experience and expertise to the task, we prepare, review and certify our members' applications for the annual eligibility process associated with the CFC. If an organization meets United Way NCA's membership eligibility requirements, we will submit an application to CFCNCA, Chesapeake Bay Area CFC, Potomac CFC and St. Mary's County CFC on the organization's behalf.
-
Every charity participating in the Combined Federal Campaign has a five digit designation code. Your five digit code will be the same in all four campaigns that United Way NCA and its member organizations participate in. Prominently display this code on all your marketing materials.
-
The CFC code for United Way of the National Capital Area is #31408.
