DescThe Equity & Inclusion division, formerly the Commission on Economic Inclusion, has been working since 2001 to close the racial disparities in jobs, income and wealth, by growing businesses owned by people of color and increasing workforce diversity, equity and inclusion. Ultimately, this work is fueled by the belief that businesses and the region are stronger with greater racial equity.Acting as a convener, an advocate, and a resource, GCP's Equity & Inclusion engages the region's employers to address the systemic racial inequalities which hinder economic growth in our region. Hundreds of professionals, top leaders, volunteers, businesses, and community organizations are engaged with GCP's Equity & Inclusion each year to accomplish these goals.Equity & Inclusion has focused on two parallel and equally important areas: growing businesses owned by people of color and increasing workforce diversity, equity and inclusion through high-quality and effective initiatives, workshops, conferences, and consulting to stimulate minority business growth and increase workforce inclusion. Clients include executives, chief procurement officers, diversity and human resource professionals, small and minority-owned businesses, and regional and national economic development organizations. Some of the major accomplishments this year include:The Equity & Inclusion (E&I) division completed a planning process to develop strategies that answer the question, "How can racially equitable economic development grow our region?" With the support of a taskforce of board members and community leaders, the E&I division developed three strategies, one of which is CommitCLE.CommitCLE: CommitCLE is a comprehensive initiative to facilitate significant growth for minority business enterprises (MBEs). Through this work, a cohort of companies made a commitment to increase supplier diversity spend targeted at growth-oriented minority firms. These companies will:- Grow local and diverse spend - Mentor 2-3 MBE Firms- Utilize The Marketplace to source MBEs and promote opportunitiesCommitCLE is also supported by the Inclusion Marketplace, an online portal connecting MBEs with demand for goods and services. On the supply side, MBEs promote their goods/services, find business opportunities, and bid on work. On the demand side, buyers can post opportunities and source suppliers to diversify their vendor-base. Additionally, the portal connects MBEs to resources, capital, and outreach events. This initiative will close the gap between supply and demand to increase the number of scalable MBEs.Desc

Part IV, Line 2b:The Economic Growth Foundation (EGF) acts in the role of fiscal agent for early stage, community based concepts without a formal corporate structure, whose purpose is consistent with the scope of the EGF. Each early stage concept is provided with a set of formal operating procedures. The EGF does not receive compensation for its duties in connection with any fiscal agent agreements.
Part X, Line 2:The Economic Growth Foundation ("EGF") adopted the accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, which addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the consolidated financial statements. Under this guidance, EGF may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on technical merits of the position. At December 31, 2019 and 2018, management has evaluated the Organization's tax positions and has concluded that the Organization has taken no uncertain tax positions that require adjustment to the consolidated financial statements to comply with provisions of this guidance. EGF is not subject to tax examinations by tax authorities for the years ending December 31, 2016 and prior.
