- A cash contribution equal to 0.01% of your organization's annual revenue, made every year. Equipment, software, mentors, internships and other in-kind support are welcome as additive support, but they do not replace the core cash commitment.
- Public or private companies, brands, teams, venues and organizations of all sizes that do business in California. Three-to-five-year commitments are encouraged, and multi-year pledges can be made up front.
- Annually. The commitment is calculated on annual revenue and contributed once a year, so the investment compounds as your organization grows.
- Cash is what lets California.fund deploy capital where it is needed most and report on it. Every dollar is tracked from commitment to verified outcome, so participating companies, communities and the public can see where capital goes and what it produces.
