Over the last several years, communities across California have experienced a whiplash of disaster impacts from catastrophic wildfires, to record snow, to extreme heat and drought, to severe flooding. The seemingly continuous cycle of climate threat in vulnerable communities, coupled with a focus by funders on immediate response, leaves communities with next to no resources to build broad long-term, equity-driven resilience to recurring natural hazards and humanitarian disasters.
Last year, Philanthropy California hosted a conversation titled: California Disaster Philanthropy Briefing: From Episodic Relief to Transformative Resilience where we uplifted the need for philanthropy to resource transformative resilience and shift away from ineffective models of funding disasters only in the immediate aftermath of a specific event. Public and private funding should move towards long-term investments in building the capacity of communities to respond, recover, and build resilience to all types of hazards. In light of recent events across the state, we are uplifting the need for immediate response and renewing our call for a significant shift in the way funders across California approach climate and disaster grantmaking.
Join Philanthropy California and Nonprofit Finance Fund for the launch of our Resourcing Resilience Report. As Californians grapple with the escalating impacts of climate change, it is clear that the path towards resilience lies in supporting the communities on the frontline. The Resourcing Resilience Report arrives at a pivotal moment as climate change continues to disproportionately affect vulnerable communities and communities of color—those who often bear the brunt of extreme weather events, extractive industry, and environmental degradation.
Philanthropy California — the statewide alliance of Northern California Grantmakers, SoCal Grantmakers, and Catalyst of San Diego & Imperial Counties — stands unwaveringly with our state’s immigrant and migrant communities.
On December 6, we look forward to sharing and discussing the next steps to advance our long-term agenda and building momentum for emergent near-term efforts in 2020.
As California wildfires devastate communities throughout the state, significant financial, material and human resources are deployed to support recovery and reduce their threats on communities.
Philanthropy California becomes first partner to implement a report strategy aiming to boost alignment, coordination of funders.
The California Endowment pledged $10 million to the state's $90 million efforts to get a fair and accurate count in the 2020 Census. The pledge fits in with increased awareness and funding from regional funders of the challenges facing the 2020 Census.
