Today, December 1 is Giving Tuesday. Since its inaugural year in 2012, #GivingTuesday has become a movement that celebrates and supports giving and philanthropy.

SCEA is a volunteer-based organization that aims to create a community of evaluators in Southern California. In 2020, the SCEA Board worked towards increasing membership, hosted two SCEA Town Halls on COVID-19 and a potential membership fee structure, two Coffee Break presentations on Qualtrics, engaged with the evaluation community on our website, Twitter, and LinkedIn group, and collaborated with other institutions and AEA Local Affiliates.

We understand that COVID-19 has brought unprecedented concerns and financial strains. This #GivingTuesday, we greatly appreciate your consideration in making a donation today to help SCEA bring high quality programming to the local evaluation community in Southern California.

Donations to SCEA will help support:

• Wild Apricot “Community” level subscription — $90/month
• Fees to register as a non-profit organization — $400 one-time
• SCEA member events in 2021— $2,000 annually
• Zoom subscription — $20/month

At this time, SCEA is not a registered non-profit organization. Donations are not tax-deductible yet. We hope to pursue non-profit status in 2021 to provide this option, among many other benefits. If you have any questions, please contact us at scea.us.info@gmail.com.

Thank you and happy holidays from the SCEA team!
