Central Florida Charities & Fundraisers Corporation
Working Toward a Brighter Future
About Us
Welcome to Central Florida Charities & Fundraisers Corporation
We’re a 501(c)(3) nonprofit serving Central Florida with one goal: helping people through food, connection, and compassion.
This organization was born from a deep desire to give back. We've been fortunate over the years, and we believe that when life gives you that kind of grace, you pay it forward. Helping others isn’t just something we do — it’s part of who we are.
What We’re About
Our mission is simple: bring people together to support communities in need. Whether it’s helping youth sports teams raise funds, supporting church groups with their outreach, or delivering meals after a storm, we jump in where we’re needed.
We believe that no one should go hungry and that access to good food is a basic need, not a luxury. That’s why we work hard to get meals and resources to those who need them most. Powered by Passion, and a Serious Industrial Smoker
Since 2013, we’ve been showing up where it matters most. At the heart of our operation is Michael, a culinary expert with a serious setup, a massive smoker that can handle up to 300 pork butts or 200 whole chickens, plus 25 hot pans ready to serve.
From community events and fundraisers to disaster relief efforts, Michael and our team bring comfort and nourishment wherever it’s needed. His auctioneering skills also help raise funds, and we’re proud to say 100% of proceeds go directly to the cause, not to overhead.
What We Do
We partner with farms, food producers, and local retailers to gather high-quality fresh and shelf-stable foods. Then we distribute it to carefully selected shelters, churches, youth programs, and community centers.
Our team is made up of passionate volunteers and professionals who care deeply about making a difference, not just today, but for the long haul.
How We Work
Transparency and trust are key. Our support comes from local organizations, businesses, and individuals who believe in what we do. With their help, we keep operations running efficiently, making sure every dollar and every donated item goes as far as possible.
Local Focus, Broad Impact
We’re deeply rooted in Central Florida, but our reach extends wherever help is needed. Whether it’s a small neighborhood in need or a larger response after a storm, we’re ready to mobilize.
We also organize community fundraisers, food drives, and events that bring people together to support one another, because we believe strong communities start with shared purpose.
Join Us
Whether you're looking to volunteer, donate, or partner up, there's a place for you in this mission. Every meal served, every dollar raised, every life touched starts with someone stepping up to help.
Together, we can create a stronger, more caring Central Florida, one plate at a time.
