Workplace Giving
Government employee workplace giving campaigns
Government employees can support First Place through the Combined Federal Campaign (CFC). Government employees include:
- Federal
- U.S. Military
- U.S. Postal Service
When choosing to give to First Place through your CFC workplace giving campaign, you’re helping to provide a healthy and safe transition for youth who are aging out of the foster care system. When selecting which organization to contribute to,
please be sure to choose #97885 to designate First Place for Youth.
Local, state, county, municipal and school board employees should check with their local campaign administrator to see if First Place is included.
United Way
United Way campaigns are among the most trusted workplace giving choice among California businesses, with more than 500 companies and 75,000 contributors that participate.

Non-governmental workplace giving campaigns
Many companies include First Place on their list of charities for employees to donate to. If your company does not list First Place, there are two ways you can help get First Place added to your workplace giving campaign:
- Contact your company’s charitable employee giving manager and let them know that you would like to contribute to First Place.
- Or email us at dpearn@firstplaceforyouth.org and we will work directly with someone from your company to get First Place added to your company’s list of charities.
