Los Angeles, California, February 7, 2026  – The Calexit Initiative, a growing movement advocating for California’s independence, is proud to announce that it has reached its first fundraising milestone: $500 has been raised through its official GoFundMe campaign.

Although modest, this initial round of funding marks a crucial first step in fueling statewide efforts, including printing petitions, outreach to the community, and media campaigns aimed at informing Californians about the path to sovereignty.

“This $500 proves that people are willing to support a better future for California,” said Dr. Xavier Mitchell, CEO of the Calexit Initiative. “We’re not just talking — we’re building, brick by brick, dollar by dollar.”

The movement’s next target is $5,000 by May 1st, with a full campaign deadline of July 5th. The funds raised will support the next phase of the initiative, including regional tour stops, immersive media content, and infrastructure to manage the petition signature process.

With California having the fifth-largest economy in the world, the Calexit Initiative argues that it has the resources, vision, and public support to pursue peaceful, democratic independence from the federal government. The group’s efforts also include launching its own digital currency (CNT), rolling out NFT-based economic tools, and laying the groundwork for a self-sustaining infrastructure for trade, policy, and prosperity.
