Sustaining Members: Join CAN Today! 

Foundations, and large nonprofits bring vital resources – jobs, money, ideas, services – to California communities, making our state a better place to live. In turn, you can help CAN to help nonprofits address their most pressing challenges, including:

  • Growing accountability demands
  • Increasing cost of doing business
  • Financial management and reporting struggles
  • Unionization and living wage ordinances
  • Leadership transition
  • And more

With your partnership, CAN addresses these enormous challenges more effectively.

Our goal is to raise $100,000 from sustaining members each year to help:

  • Mount an ongoing public policy effort to ensure nonprofits get a fair shake when government leaders devise the laws and regulations that govern us. Price tag: $300,000 a year.
  • Operate the Nonprofit Quality Reporting Initiative, which helps streamline patchworked, inefficient accounting and financial reporting – a major obstacle to effectiveness. Price tag: $300,000 a year.
  • Support CAN members through helpline calls, publications, and discounts on products and services. Price tag: $200,000 a year.
  • Stage conferences and workshops that gather nonprofit leaders from all sub-sectors, and all across the state, for key skill-building and networking. Price tag: $200,000 a year.

CAN sustaining members get all the benefits of regular members, plus:

  • Free registrations to any CAN event throughout the year (see below for details).
