CFDC is a public charity, tax exempt under IRS Code 501(c)(3) with the goal of improving the quality of life in our area. The purpose of the CFDC is to create a pool of charitable funds that are used for philanthropic good. We manage funds, invest assets and use the earnings from these investments to award grants to a wide variety of non-profit organizations and community groups for charitable purposes.
