D E A R F R I E N D ,

The Women’s Foundation of California has always placed a high value on collaboration and community,prioritizing the leadership generated by the communities we serve. Over the past 27 years, we’ve learned that long-term change involves the partnership of communities — big and small, urban and rural, womenand men — who work together for the betterment of all. The Foundation has been privileged over these past decades to work with you and a network of grassroots organizations doing innovative work to reach out to every region of California where unwavering women are taking on unjust systems and challenging the status quo.

As we look ahead to 2007 and beyond, we are paying particular attention to changes in the demographicand political landscape in California — and nationally — and how those changes will impact women andgirls, their families and their communities. There has been some good news in California this past year. The minimum wage increased, bringing working families a step closer to economic security. A number ofbills that improve low-income families’ access to health care and increase protection for victims of domestic violence were also signed into law.

Still, as a community of concerned citizens, we face numerous challenges. A woman’s right to make informeddecisions and control her own reproductive health remains under threat. Welfare policies and cuts in subsidizedservices remain obstacles for women working towards economic self-sufficiency. Red tape continues to bind ourability to protect the health of our communities and children by limiting exposure to toxins and pollution.Keeping these challenges in mind, we will continue to be steadfast in our vision to create a society that isjust and equitable for all, where women and girls can lead and thrive.

As a larger, stronger, statewide entity, the Foundation continues to invest deeply in policy advocacy work and to expand the number of women who have a voice in the creation of statewide policy, especially as itimpacts the well-being of our families and communities. This includes operating the Women’s Policy Institute,which has positioned the Foundation as a trusted partner for legislators concerned with social justice for allCalifornians. Now entering our fourth year, the Institute has an impressive legislative record of 10 bills signedinto law. Already we have trained 100 women leaders across the state who are working diligently to ensurethat the issues impacting women’s and girls’ lives are a priority on the agenda of policymakers.

In the coming year, the Foundation is gearing up to launch a major new initiative focused on youngwomen. This effort addresses a concern that many of you shared with us on the Road to Equity Tour: that a number of external forces, including media and popular culture, are having a negative impact on girls’ and young women’s self image and personal development. With this latest initiative, we hope to combineinnovative strategies and research to address barriers that limit the healthy development and leadershippotential of young women and girls in California.

Together we have made great strides, and the work continues. The women and girls of California need your increased and ongoing support to address the injustice and inequities that persist. Everyone wins in asociety where women and girls have the opportunity to reach their fullest potential. With your continuedpartnership, there are no limits to our creating the change we want to see.

With deep appreciation and respect,

Patti Chang and Elmy Bermejo

0506t the Women’s Foundation of California, we believe that every woman and girl should

have the opportunity to live up to her greatest potential. We also know that many women’s and

girls’ opportunities can be severely limited by the cost of living, lack of access to quality education

and training and low prospects for earning a living wage. For a large percentage of low-income

women in California, there is only a small gap between barely making ends meet and poverty.

In fact, 37 percent of families in households headed by single mothers in California already

live in poverty. This is why the Foundation invests in strategies to remove barriers that limit

the ability of individual women and their families not only to make ends meet but to achieve

long-term economic stability.

The Foundation supports organizations that engage in community organizing and policy advocacy

strategies to ensure that women can earn a living wage, access education and training and find

opportunities in non-traditional and higher-wage jobs. When women and girls fully participate in

society and can achieve economic self-sufficiency, everyone wins. An investment in the economic

security of women and girls is — in the long run — an investment in the stability of all families

and communities in California as a whole.

Women’s Foundation of California grant partner California Child Care Resources and Referral

Network coordinates nine Parent Voices chapters in the Bay Area to provide low-income working parents,

mostly mothers, the skills and knowledge to organize and advocate for affordable and accessible child

care. In 2005, low-income mothers from Parent Voices campaigned successfully to avert $172 million

in proposed cuts to the governor’s budget that would have limited subsidized child care eligibility for

low-income parents and reduced reimbursement rates for child care providers.

Mobilizing for

0506he Women’s Foundation of California is working to end injustice and inequity and to create

policies focused on the needs of women and girls. Creating a more just society for women and girls

requires engagement in policy change. Women must sit at the decision-making tables in order to

produce state and local policy that reflects the needs and priorities of women and girls.

Our Women’s Policy Institute gives women leaders the opportunity to interact with policymakers

and directly influence the policymaking process. Every Fellow works on a team of their choosing,

and each team is provided with a mentor who is an experienced policy advocate. In just three years,

Institute fellows have had an integral role in shaping 20 state bills in Sacramento, 10 of which have

been signed into law. Additionally, the Foundation supports community-based organizations that

use strategies to mobilize women and girls around policy advocacy efforts in their communities and

at the state level. Every day, the Foundation invests in the development of women’s and girls’

leadership to effectively advocate for their own concerns and to create lasting change for their

communities, families and the state — one policy at a time.

The Levi Strauss Foundation has been a funding partner of the Women’s Foundation of California since

1979.

“In order for social change to matter, it must be done with communities — and not for communities.

As a funder, we need partners who understand the importance of building communities in order to

support social change. As a thought leader, the Women’s Foundation of California understands the

important role women can play both in building communities and leading social change. This

partnership has reinforced the importance of focusing on women, the role of policy change and

the need for long-term commitments.” —— TTHHEERREESSAA FFAAYY--BBUUSSTTIILLLLOOSS,, EEXXEECCUUTTIIVVEE DDIIRREECCTTOORR,, LLEEVVII SSTTRRAAUUSSSS

Building Healthier

0506ur vision to create a California where all women and girls can thrive is in large part

dependent upon ensuring the health and well-being of women and girls. This is why the Women’s

Foundation of California focuses on improving the environments where women and girls live, work

and play; and invests in strategies to protect the rights of all women and girls to make informed

decisions about and have control over their reproductive lives.

The Foundation’s grants in the areas of environmental health and justice and reproductive health

and sexual rights sustain innovative community-based organizations and their efforts to: improve

the health conditions of low-income communities and communities of color; affect policy change

to improve health disparities and increase access to health care and preventive health services.

With the support of individual donors and funders, the Foundation directs critical resources to

community-based organizations to expand their capacity to build a healthier California where all

women and girls can lead and thrive.

The Women’s Foundation of California grant partner, Reach LA’s Girl2Girl program builds the

leadership of young women of color to initiate and sustain community action and advocacy for the sexual

and reproductive rights of girls and young women. This includes training low-income young women to

be peer health educators and youth program managers.

Investing in Solutions for

0506reating long-term social change requires a significant investment in strategic, innovative

solutions that engage a diverse group of constituents. The Women’s Foundation of California works

to build a community of individuals that care about the well-being of women and girls and also

understand why women — in their roles as caregivers, community organizers and advocates — are

critical to addressing social ills like poverty, violence and health disparities. In addition to supporting

the issues they care about, individual donors come to the Foundation because they know we are

committed to increasing their knowledge and passion for investing in a more equitable and just

society. They know we will work with donors to support their making thoughtful and strategic

decisions about their philanthropy. For us, strengthening philanthropy means building a community

of concerned citizens who understand that we are all interdependent. And if we are to build the

California and the world that we envision, we must invest in the knowledge that any inequity or

injustice that affects some actually affects us all. Each of us has a role to play to realize our shared

vision of creating a society where everyone has the opportunity to live up to their greatest potential,

regardless of their race, class, immigration status or gender.

The Leadership Council is a group of individual women in Southern California who are strongly

committed to improving the lives of women and girls through philanthropy. Together, the Council

members help raise awareness of the challenges confronting women and girls, promote understanding

of the work of the Women’s Foundation of California to address these challenges and galvanize

support in Southern California for the Foundation’s work.

STAFF

On the eve of Patti Chang’s retirement from the Women’s Foundation, we have great

faith that the Foundation will continue to be innovative, passionate and visionary

in its work. We are ensuring a seamless transition by appointing Judy Patrick as the

interim president and CEO, while we conduct a national search for a permanent

replacement. Judy has served as the Foundation’s vice president of programs for

seven years. Under Judy’s leadership and with the strength of the very capable staff

and board of directors, the Women’s Foundation of California will continue to

grow and flourish.
