Philanthropy California, the statewide alliance of Catalyst of San Diego & Imperial Counties, Northern California Grantmakers, and SoCal Grantmakers, stands ready to defend philanthropy’s freedom of expression and its right to give without fear of retaliation. We believe an independent nonprofit and philanthropic sector — free from government overreach — is essential in maintaining a robust civil society, thriving communities, and a strong democracy.
