Current Initiatives
California Creative Corps Inland SoCal
is a program that connects artists with opportunities and partnerships that inspire, support, and appropriately compensate purposeful, and sustainable creative work. IECF is designated by the California Arts Council as an administrator of $4.7M in regranting funds specifically in the Inland Empire, through a collaboration with three local arts agencies – Arts Connection – the San Bernardino County Arts Council, Riverside Arts Council, and the CA Desert Arts Council.
The IE Giving Hub
promotes nonprofits and helps donors learn more about our community. Interested philanthropists can find detailed information about local organizations, make informed charitable decisions, and give all in one place. This resource was created to help people learn about and support Inland Empire nonprofits year-round, enabling them to financially support and/or volunteer for causes they care about.
Inland Economic Growth & Opportunity (IEGO) is a collaborative organization dedicated to fostering economic growth, driving innovation, and promoting opportunity across Southern California’s Inland Empire. As a nonprofit initiative, IEGO brings together community-based organizations, businesses, educational institutions, and government agencies to address the region’s most pressing economic challenges and capitalize on the Inland Empire’s vast potential. IEGO operates under the umbrella of IECF.
