Established in 1961 by President John F. Kennedy, the Combined Federal Campaign is among the largest and most successful workplace charity drives in the world. The campaign enables military and civilian federal workers, including U.S. postal service employees, to support charitable causes of their choice via payroll deduction or cash/check donation. Since 1996, the local CFC has raised more than $29 million for human health and welfare organizations. Nationwide, the CFC has raised more than $6 billion since its inception.
