CFO Cares

CFO Network’s employee directed community engagement program CFO Cares is designed to provide our team members an opportunity to give back to the communities they call home. Our team members select the philanthropic focus of CFO Cares and the specific charities. In October of 2022, CFO Network team members decided the organization should focus its efforts on food insecurity and youth services. 


Why We Care:
