My organization has participated in the CFC previously as an unaffiliated organization or as a member of another federation. Can we still join Aid for Africa?
Yes. Eligible charities may participate in the CFC either as a member of a federation or as an unaffiliated organization. As long as you do not have a legally binding commitment to another federation, you may make a choice about how to participate each year. However, every new member of the Aid for Africa is asked to make a 2-year commitment to participate in CFC as a member of the federation. This is primarily due to the long lag time between submission of the application to CFC and the receipt of donations (up to 18 months). As a result, if accepted as a member of Aid for Africa for the 2009 CFC, the next time you will have an opportunity to participate in the CFC as an unaffiliated organization or as a member of another federation would be for CFC 2011.
