The countdown is on! Join us for an unforgettable celebration of the strength and potential of our community at OCCF's Annual Meeting on November 20th at the Hyatt Regency Irvine.
Hear from two of Orange County’s most inspiring leaders who will share their insights and visions for Orange County’s thriving future.
With the new year on the horizon, it’s important to understand the changes that are coming to charitable giving in 2026 and beyond. The passing of the new tax bill in July 2025 carries implications that will impact your philanthropic strategy and particularly, your tax deductions.
Hear from experts on the topic Margita Labhard, Senior Director of Philanthropic Strategy, Orange County Community Foundation, and Dan Whittaker, CPA, CEPA, Managing Partner of Whittaker & Company, on strategies you may want to consider for optimizing the benefit of your charitable contributions from a recent webinar hosed by the California State University, Fullerton, Center for Family Business.
As we approach the busy holiday season, we want your charitable giving experience to be efficient and rewarding! Stress-proof your year-end giving by making your contributions of stock or other assets to your OCCF fund by December 20. This will allow time for processing by your financial institution and delivery to your fund at OCCF.
