The trick to juggling is determining
which balls are made of rubber
and which ones are made of glass.

It’s impossible to keep all the balls in the air when the day is too short & the staff is too small. Here at CMF, we help Congress minimize the breakage.

Today we need your help. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, CMF relies on the generosity of corporations, associations, foundations and individuals to support our activities.

If you like what we do to promote "Good Government through Good Management," please show your support by making a contribution. Donors at all levels are welcome and contributions are tax-deductible to the fullest extent of the law.

what your support means

CMF has earned a reputation for providing well-targeted services to both sides of the aisle that focus on enhancing the management of congressional offices.

Supporting CMF shows that you share our commitment to promoting public service in the legislative branch and to increasing the effectiveness of Congress through good management practices.

As demands on and expectations of Congress increase, your support helps CMF provide the congressional staff of today and tomorrow with the managerial and leadership skills they need to govern in challenging times.

When you contribute, be assured CMF will use your gift wisely and responsibly.

what hill staff say about cmf

"Nothing says more about CMF than the real results we have witnessed in our office: better planning, higher morale, and greater productivity."

"The materials provided by CMF, particularly Setting Course and Frontline Management, have been invaluable in helping us to anticipate problems, set priorities, and deal with the multitude of administrative headaches facing every new and returning Member of Congress."

"CMF’s program on effective interviewing and hiring saved me a lot of time and helped me hire some great people. And, maybe more importantly, it saved me from hiring the wrong people. Even my boss likes the new process."

"Even after 25 years as Chief of Staff, I still refer to CMF for insight as to what the trends are on Capitol Hill. With so much having changed during this time, it is comforting to know that there is an organization like CMF that has its finger of the pulse of what is happening."
