A Wise Investment<br />
Building a just and healthy society—one in which both humans and nature thrive—<br />
is not only a compassionate choice, but also a wise one. This kind of smart,<br />
opportunity-focused investment is what will move us into a future that is economically<br />
prosperous and environmentally sound.<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Sierra</strong> <strong>Club</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> is proud to have earned a four-star rating from nonprofi t<br />
watchdog Charity Navigator, as well as an A+ from the American Institute of<br />
Philanthropy, and spends more than 90 cents of every dollar on conservation<br />
programs.<br />
<strong>The</strong> donors with whom we partner and the grantees we support are all part of this<br />
solutions-oriented effort. Our collaboration is about more than dollars for programs.<br />
Rather, it is about investing in people, places, and ideas in ways that bring the most<br />
benefi t—investment that cultivates the change we need to grow healthy people and<br />
a healthy planet.<br />
We hope you will join us.<br />
