Combined Federal Campaign (CFC)

The FCBA Foundation is proud to participate in this year’s Combined Federal Campaign for the National Capital Area.  Federal employees in the nation’s capital can now make regular tax-deductible contributions to the FCBA Foundation through the Combined Federal Campaign, providing funds to support and help expand the Foundation’s vital charitable work.

To make a pledge to the FCBA Foundation, donors should use the FCBA Foundation’s CFC code number (#31092) on their pledge cards.  Pledge cards can be obtained from your agency’s CFC campaign staff.  Pledge cards can also be completed and printed out online through the CFC website at www.cfcnca.org.  On the website, click “Giving” and “About CFC-e” for more information.

Your donations will support the valuable work performed by the FCBA Foundation.  Last year, the Foundation’s work included:

  • Awarding nine college scholarships to D.C. public high school students and stipends to seven law school students for unpaid legal communications-related summer internships totaling about $175,000 
  • Sponsoring numerous volunteer events for FCBA members, including making meals for the homeless at Martha’s Table and delivering meals to the homeless through McKenna’s Wagon each month
  • Co-Sponsoring the 2009 Charity Auction for Bright Beginnings and the FCBA Foundation which raised over $86,500
