​How Federations Fared in the 2017 CFC Admissions Scramble

11/10/2017

​The new CFC fees imposed by OPM for the 2017 campaign contributed to a dramatic decline in charity participation.  Overall, from 2016 to 2017, the number of charities in the CFC dropped by more than half.
​The majority of this exodus was seen among local charities.  OPM has not released the 2017 list for local organizations, so we can only track general numbers.
 
OPM has, however, released the 2017 list for national and international charities, so we have precise figures.
 
Comparing the 2016 list with the 2017 list, we see that the overall number of participating charities dropped by 21 percent.  The actual numbers:
2016 national and international charities: 2,603
2017 national and international charities: 2,057
Reduction:  - 546
We were interested in how this played out for federations – maybe because we are a family of federations.
 
Most federations, following the general trend, saw their memberships decline.  Some federations dropped out.  One federation came into existence, and a handful of federations maintained their membership.
 
Below are the numbers for every national and international federation.  We treated independent charities as their own federation.
