Community Health Charities keeps national overhead costs at just 7.9%. Community Health Charities is partnered in some of the largest employee giving campaigns in the country, including American Airlines, Sears, Roebuck and Co., UnitedHealth Group and the Combined Federal Campaign (CFC). Millions of employees in corporations, federal agencies, and state/municipal governments nationwide give to Community Health Charities' member health agencies, raising nearly $58 million annually.
