Dear members, Exciting news! California Donor Table announced the launch of a $20 million funding strategy for 2024 at our statewide gathering of donors, on February 1st and 2nd in Redondo Beach. A big thank you to our Board members, Quinn Delaney and Wayne Jordan, Steve Phillips, Dr. Bill Resnick and Michael Stubbs, Karen Grove, Faye and Sandor Straus, as well as our host committee, Allison Thomas, Fran Jemmott, Rev. Zach Hoover, Dr. Resnick, Marcus Tyson, and Celinda Vazquez, who all contributed to making the convening great. It was indeed a memorable two days featuring some of California’s most effective progressive elected officials including Attorney General Rob Bonta, LA County Supervisor Holly J. Mitchell, Assembly Majority Leader Emerita Eloise Gomez-Reyes, Santa Ana Councilmember Jessie Lopez, and LA County District Attorney George Gascón. We were especially excited to showcase so many who CDT previously endorsed! We’re also grateful to our outstanding practitioner partners who shared their work with attendees, including California Working Families Party State Director Jane Kim, Courage California Executive Director Irene Kao, Communities for a New California founding Executive Director Pablo Rodriguez, Engage San Diego Executive Director Luis Montero-Adams, and Local Progress Executive Director Ivan Lluevanos-Elms! |
