Annual Report 2014

Give. Connect. Help.

Give. Connect. Help. More than 133 million Americans suffer from a chronic disease or life threatening illness. Many of those affected rely on the support and services of America’s most trusted health charities, which make up the membership of Community Health Charities. Bringing America’s best health charities together in the workplace to provide employees an opportunity to give to the causes most important to them is an idea that is now over half of a century old. For more than 58 years, Community Health Charities, through the leadership of its volunteers, member charities, and staff, has been instrumental in supporting the private and public sectors in building a culture of giving that is inherent to the American way of life. Community Health Charities continues to be the leader in raising funds in the workplace for health-related charities in both the private and public sector. In the fiscal year ending June 30,2014, the collective efforts of Community Health Charities and its network of affiliates translated to over $80 million pledged nationwide to our member charities through all forms of workplace giving - payroll deduction, matching gifts, one-time gifts and employee engagement activities. These dollars help fund important community education programs and services, research discoveries, and efforts to protect the rights of those confronting a health issue who need a voice. Community Health Charities is one of the most cost- effective, non-profit organizations, keeping its national overhead costs at just 8 percent. Though workplace giving is a longtime tradition, it is rapidly evolving and changing to meet the needs of the American workforce. For Community Health Charities, this has meant redefining our value in the workplace through its’ Health Matters at Work® program. Collecting and delivering the credible health information, programs, and volunteer opportunities of the health charities in our network has repositioned Community Health Charities as a valued partner to businesses seeking to build a healthier, more engaged and productive workplace. The successes of 2014 are the culmination of the generous giving of many—the American workforce, corporate leaders, dedicated Community Health Charities volunteer and staff leadership, and the wonderful member charities we have the pleasure to represent. On behalf of Community Health Charities, we thank all of you who have helped support our vision to improve the lives of people affected by a disability or chronic disease.

Combined Federal Campaign

For more than 58 years, Community Health Charities has had the honor of representing the nation’s most recognized health charities in the Combined Federal Campaign – the largest workplace giving campaign in the world. Since the CFC began, more than $1 billion has been raised for the health charities the Community Health Charities membership.

Nearly $25 million was pledged to Community Health Charities, its member health charities, and its state-level affiliates in the fall 2012 CFC. Donors pledged $17.9 million to the 62 organizations that make up the national membership of Community Health Charities, and $6.8 million to Community Health Charities affiliates in partnership with their local member health charities. Most activity associated with

administering the 2013 CFC by Community Health Charities and its affiliates has been completed as of June 30, 2014.

Across the country, nearly 200 hundred campaigns are conducted as part of the CFC through community-based federal employee committees called Local Federal Coordinating Committees (LFCC). Each LFCC is responsible for the oversight of the local CFC. As such, the administrative fees associated with running a campaign vary by geographic area and size of the unique campaigns.

Operations of Community Health Charities are funded by corporate gifts and its member charities. Services provided to member charities include; assistance with preparation of applications, local and national representation, marketing, promotion and advertising, and processing and distribution of contributions from national and local private and public sectors workplace giving campaigns. Currently, the administrative costs by Community Health Charities, or any of its affiliates associated with the CFC, may not exceeded 16% (8% by Community Health Charities in representing national member charities and 8% by Community Health Charities affiliates in representing local member charities in the CFC).

All charities that participate in the CFC are reviewed annually for evidence that they are providing services on a local, state, national, or international level (depending on the type of application), as well as public and financial accountability. The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) calculates and publishes participating charities’ ratio of revenue that is applied to administrative and fundraising expenses (AFR) in all campaign materials, and advises donors that an AFR in excess of 35% is considered high by many in the philanthropic community.
