The Inland Empire Community Foundation invites you to a dynamic, 2-day event where a convening of policymakers, nonprofits, philanthropists, and changemakers will focus on Investing to Thrive.

Elevating conversations from previous gatherings, we’ll leverage the Vital Conditions Framework and Thriving Together initiative as our roadmap to developing key landmarks of a thriving region, like education, food access, and housing.

We’ll explore collaborative, equitable policy and investment strategies to unlock the IE's full potential and ensure all residents have the chance to prosper.

Your ticket includes:

• Access to both days of the conference, including plenary and breakout sessions
• Lunch and refreshment breaks on both days, morning refreshments on Thursday and breakfast on Friday
• Access to co-hosted happy hour
• Networking opportunities
  

Your voice matters! Together, we can build power to secure the resources needed for a flourishing Inland Empire where every resident has a greater sense of belonging.
