Donations

The California Association of Licensed Investigators (CALI) Scholarship Program promotes the professional standing of the investigation profession and those committed to continuing education. The CALI Scholarship Program is possible thanks to the generous donations from CALI members and supporters. Contributions made to the CALI Scholarship Fund are earmarked for the Educational Scholarship and new members/licensees to attend CALI events. Please support CALI's Scholarship Program by making a donation.

One of CALI’s paramount goals is to serve as a legislative force for our industry. We complete this through several avenues, but our most significant annual Legislative Day! Registration for Legislative Day is FREE to CALI members thanks to the generosity of our sponsors and donors. Please consider donating to our Legislative Day Fund.

Your donations allow CALI-PAC to directly contribute to legislators or candidates for the CA State Legislature. CALI sends investigators from all over the state to events in support of candidates or currently elected officials. These face-to-face encounters is extremely helpful when the time comes for CALI to influence legislation. The private investigator exemption from "AB 5" is a perfect example of that influence. Legislators do their best to represent the interests of their constituents, particularly those in which they have had some interaction. Your contribution to CALI PAC will enable our association to continue to have a voice in the legislative process. The entire profession benefits from the efforts of CALI. Contributions made to the CALI PAC are voluntary and not tax-deductible.

Our state faces many emergencies throughout the year, including numerous destructive wildfires. We extend our thoughts and prayers to all affected by these horrendous events. As always, we want our members impacted by wildfires, floods, and earthquakes to know we are here for you. We hope you and your loved ones are safe and well.  The CALI Disaster Relief Fund was established in 2017 exclusively to support our members who suffered catastrophic losses from natural disasters. On March 8, 2023, the CALI Board of Directors voted to change the name to "CALI Disaster Relief and Humanitarian Effort Fund." This will allow us to expand our help to CALI members facing other emergencies, including armed conflict crises.How can you help?Please consider donating to the CALI Disaster Relief and Humanitarian Effort Fund. 100% of the donations will benefit CALI members impacted by natural disasters or victims of armed conflicts.
