League of California Community Foundations

Join the League of California Community Foundations

The League is a member-driven coalition of 30+ community foundations across the state. Our members drive the strategic goals and priorities of the League as it fosters collaboration, capacity building and knowledge sharing across California.

The League gives me instant access to a remarkable set of peers whom I can turn to on a moments notice. We share a passion for community and a desire to increase impact. I frequently call on colleagues for best practices, advice or problem solving.

The League of California Community Foundations has been the single most beneficial professional association of my 20-year tenure at the Orange County Community Foundation. The connection with colleagues both personally and professionally has elevated the effectiveness of my leadership, and allowed me to contribute to the advancement of our field in meaningful ways. If I could only belong to one membership group or association, LCCF would be the one!

The League has helped weave what were siloed community-serving organizations throughout our state and galvanized us all to work together to increase our impact in serving our own communities and our state. Whether through joint advocacy, content-knowledge or capacity building, our membership in the League is a fundamental resource for our work.
