Individuals
The CDC Foundation offers individuals a powerful opportunity to advance CDC's important work. Some CDC Foundation programs are supported directly by gifts from individuals. Unrestricted contributions from individuals support our operations and enable us to reach out to foundations, corporations and other funding organizations to explore new partnership opportunities. And you can be sure your gift will make a difference. Our record of efficiency has earned us top ratings from Charity Navigator, the independent evaluator of America's largest charities.
Learn more about individual giving opportunities.
CDC Employees
Each CDC Foundation program is lead by a talented team of experts at CDC. Many of our programs begin with a CDC scientist who has a great idea but lacks the resources to make it happen. The CDC Foundation works with a network of liaisons within CDC to help CDC scientists and experts submit their program ideas to the CDC Foundation for consideration. If you are a CDC employee or contractor, learn more about how you can submit your idea.
EIS and PHPS Alumni
The CDC Foundation provides administrative support to the alumni associations of the Epidemic Intelligence Service (EIS) and the Public Health Prevention Service (PHPS). These groups of public health professionals have close ties to CDC, and many individual members continue to support CDC's work through the CDC Foundation.
