A Special Thank You

We are so grateful to all who joined us this week at our legislative reception to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the Solís Policy Institute (formerly Women’s Policy Institute).The awe-inspiring work of our honorees—advocates, policy makers, changemakers, and SPI fellows and alum—fuels us forward in our work to advance racial, economic, and gender justice. Gathering in person filled us with overwhelming pride to belong to such an amazing community.

Our Grant Partners

Supported by the generosity of our community, we moved nearly $10 million grantmaking dollars to our partners in 2020.

Across California, we prioritize investment in organizations and networks that build power in communities led by women of color and non-binary leaders. From the valleys of Visalia to the streets of San Francisco, our grantmaking strategy is guided by trust and flexibility.
