Plan to attend the 2013 CCEF Annual Conference! Our new format for the CCEF annual meeting and conference was a huge success. Members and other foundation leaders found the two one-day programs in Northern and Southern California cost-effective and informative. Plans are underway for the 2013 events. Our planning committee will be announcing dates and locations very soon. The target dates are in late February and early March. The 2012 conferences were held at Stanford University on February 14th and at the Doubletree Hotel in Anaheim/Orange County on February 16th. Summary notes and highlights of the 2012 conferences are being compiled and will be posted here soon.
