California Tax Equity Series, April

With major state and federal tax and budget debates on the horizon, California families and communities, particularly immigrant families and communities, may face significant economic hardship in the years to come.

Join your fellow California funders for a series of engaging and informative sessions exploring critical budget and tax issues affecting the state, including the impact of federal tax and budget measures on California, and what philanthropy can do to influence tax and budget policy discussions.

The five-part virtual learning and discussion series, featuring expert speakers and foundation peers, will highlight the latest developments, challenges, and opportunities in budget and tax policy, immigrant economic inclusion, and systemic reform. Finally, the Series will be designed to encourage coordination and alignment across California philanthropy.

Each session in the Series is 75 minutes in duration (virtual):

Session 2: April 1: 10:00 AM PDT – California funder debrief—what is at stake at the federal and state levels, building off of EOF’s budget and tax briefing
Session 3: June (date TBD) – Update on immigrant action, with a focus on economic inclusion and tax equity
Session 4: August (date TBD) – Tax systems simplification/Direct File updates and opportunities.
Session 5: October (date TBD) – Topic TBD

Once you register, we’ll be in touch with a confirmation email and calendar invites. Zoom information and all materials will be emailed out in advance of each session. This program is for funders and philanthropic advisors whose primary activity is grantmaking. Staff from philanthropic networks are also eligible to join.
