The CFC is the only authorized solicitation of employees in the federal workplace on behalf of charitable organizations. It continues to be the largest and most successful workplace fundraising model in the world. There are about 300 CFC regions nationally, reaching 2 million civilian, postal and military employees. Regulation and administration of the CFC nationally is conducted by the Office of CFC Operations in Washington, D.C.

The Pacific Northwest Combined Federal Campaign is administered by the Oregon Federal Executive Board (OFEB), and a committee of federal employee volunteers called the Local Federal Coordinating Committee (LFCC). Ron Johnson is the Executive Director of the OFEB and LFCC Chair. He can be reached at 503.326.2060 or rjohnson@oregonfeb.us.

The Pacific Northwest CFC serves approximately 30,000 federal employees in 37 Oregon and SW Washington counties.
