2015 - The Sierra Club Foundation
SIERRA CLUB FOUNDATION > ANNUAL REPORT 2015
A Pivotal Moment
We are fortunate participants in a defining
chapter of global history.
Around the world, attitudes are shifting and
efforts aligning into a cohesive conviction
capable of advancing tremendous change.
Possibilities become probabilities, ever
more likely to thrive and flourish.

SIERRA CLUB FOUNDATION > ANNUAL REPORT 2015
As the balance tips, acceleration inevitably
occurs and instead of “Can we do it?” the
question becomes “How far and how fast
will we go?”
Together we’ve been laying the
groundwork for many years, and 2015
was the pivotal moment.

Sierra Club Foundation
Our mission is to promote efforts to educate
and empower people to protect and improve
the natural and human environment.
The Sierra Club Foundation bridges the intersection of strategic philanthropy and grassroots advocacy. Founded in
1960, we are a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt public charity governed by an independent board of directors.
We achieve our shared vision of a healthy planet through collaboration with the Sierra Club, our donors, and
stakeholders. We embrace integrity through ethics, excellence, and transparency to ensure the trust of our donors
and partners. We demonstrate stewardship in all we do through careful development and management of resources
and responsible oversight of sponsored programs.

how far and
how fast?
It happened in 2015.
What seemed implausible
just a few years ago has
become inevitable.
We are now clearly on the path of addressing the worst consequences of the climate crisis and transitioning the world to
a low-carbon future!
With consistent support and prodding from the Sierra Club, President Obama cemented his environmental legacy by rejecting
the Keystone XL pipeline, protecting the Arctic from oil drilling, announcing the final Clean Power Plan, and declaring six new
national monuments that preserve more than a million acres. During the historic climate conference in Paris, with pressure from
the Sierra Club and its global partners, world leaders from 200 nations reached a watershed agreement to pursue meaningful
efforts to limit global warming.
Of course, none of this progress happened overnight. We’ve spent years building the foundation for these inspiring victories.
Strategic investments in campaigns like Beyond Coal, Our Wild America, and the Forward Fund spurred the growth of a
powerful grassroots movement that has relentlessly fought for conservation, clean air, and climate solutions, and permitted the
U.S. to provide essential leadership for bold action around the globe.
As encouraging as this momentum is, there still is much work to do. Science tells us we have to go further and faster. Our
objective now is to accelerate the transition to a low-carbon economy as quickly as possible, and to do so in a just, fair,
and inclusive way.
Your contributions made a significant impact in 2015. They were critical to the success we achieved and the progress we made.
We hope we can count on your continued support in 2016 and beyond as together we work to protect and improve the
natural and human environment.
Thank you!

Investments
in the Future
The Sierra Club has been working in coalition with
environmental groups and Native communities
in Alaska and America’s Arctic for more than three
decades. During that time, with the ultimate goal of
protecting the coastal plain of the Arctic National
Wildlife Refuge (a critical calving ground for the
Porcupine Caribou herd) as a national monument,
we’ve funded key efforts to prevent oil drilling in
sensitive areas and stop oil and coal company roads
to nowhere. Thanks to the work of the Club and its
allies—bringing Inuit representatives to Washington,
DC, to have their voices heard and organizing local
communities
and national
interests to build

This same kind of community partnership-building
with faith-based groups over the past decade has
helped grow awareness and trust between nontraditional climate allies, further spurred by Pope
Francis’ teaching on climate culpability. As nature’s
healing powers become more easily accessible to
all, disadvantaged youth, veterans, and others who
need it most can become the next generation of
environmentalists.

At the same time, we’re committed to making
sure the next energy economy is as inclusive as
possible—more fair than the one it replaces, so
that all people benefit, not just a few industries or
individuals. It means good local jobs and affordable
clean energy. It also means air and water that are
safe and healthy, no matter what your zip code
is. Both our grantmaking approach as well as our
social and environmental justice screens of potential
investments support these values.

Divest-Invest Philanthropy Initiative
In 2014, as a founding member of
this initiative, we joined 16 foundations
with a little more than one billion dollars
in total assets under management. Today,
436 institutions and 2,040 individuals
across 43 countries—representing
$2.6 trillion in assets—have
committed to divest from
fossil fuel companies.
