about the sierra club foundationThe 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.
Our mission is to educate, inspire, and empower humanity
to preserve the natural and human environment.
As the fi scal sponsor of the charitable programs of the Sierra Club, we provide resources to
it and other nonprofi t organizations to support scientifi c, educational, literary, organizing,
advocacy, and legal programs that further our mission. The investors with whom we
partner, and the grantees we support, all share our solutions-oriented focus. We work with
individual and institutional donors to align fi nancial resources with strategically focused
campaigns, help build capacity in the environmental movement, and create partnerships
with a broad spectrum of allied organizations around shared values and goals.

a thousandinvisible cordsCLIMATE SOLUTIONS, CONSERVATION, AND MOVEMENT BUILDING
Finding climate solutions, continuing our legacy of conservation, and building a stronger
movement are intertwined, and they are all critical to achieving our mission. This holistic
approach is required as threats to planetary and human health become more acute.
Climate disruption is the greatest challenge we have ever faced, and we are not backing
down. We support aggressive goals to cut carbon emissions and speed the transition from
fossil fuels to 100% clean, renewable energy. It’s a must-win fi ght for our planet; the
science is clear and overwhelming.
At the same time, we continue to protect the land, air, and water that dedicated Sierra
Club members have fought to safeguard for more than 120 years. Finally, in cooperation
with many allies, we are building a more diverse and inclusive environmental
movement—one that is large enough to achieve historic and ambitious goals that are
global in scale, yet rooted fi rmly in local communities to better grasp and represent the
concerns of people trying to keep their families safe and healthy.
It’s the right thing to do, and it’s the only way we’re going to win.
In the following pages, we share with you our vision on climate solutions, conservation,
and movement building. We hope you come away with optimism for what lies ahead. We continue to be inspired
by you, our donors, without whom none of this work would be possible.
As a supporter, you have an important role to play in our efforts. Whether you’re dedicated to climate solutions,
wilderness, or community health, your participation is one of the many “invisible cords” John Muir noted, binding
us together in our common venture.
We thank you for getting involved, and for your support.

With our help, Los Angeles partnered with Nevada’s Moapa Band of Paiutes to replace
its current coal consumption with 710 MW of renewable solar power from the reservation.
By abandoning coal, the city will slash its emissions 60% below 1990 levels by 2025.

Our planet’s basic natural systems depend on us reducing greenhouse
gas emissions now, which means fi nding ways to power our world
without burning fossil fuels. We need to mobilize the American people
to demand solutions before it’s too late.
This ambitious goal is not only possible, we’re already on the path.
With our support, the Sierra Club is reaching milestones no one thought attainable a
decade ago, like stopping more than 170 new coal plants from being built and retiring
almost a third of the existing coal fl eet. At the same time, renewable energy is already
competitive with that of fossil fuels in some states, and is expected to be cheaper
nationwide by 2020.
Our investments in the Club’s community-based and online organizing work, national
media, and policy advocacy support many of the clean energy successes we’re seeing
today. From writing better building codes to compelling utilities to install more wind
generation to getting more electric vehicles on the roads, we are making a difference. In
fact, an International Energy Agency (IEA) report recently confi rmed that since 2006,
the U.S. has seen the largest reduction in carbon dioxide emissions of any country or
region in the world.
It is imperative that we keep this kind of momentum going and growing. In addition to
building grassroots support for more clean megawatts, plant-by-plant and vehicle-by-
vehicle, we are investing in cutting-edge digital strategies and online communications to
win the hearts and minds of the American people and policy makers. We are giving them
the confi dence and the tools they need to demand climate solutions.

In a climate-disrupted world, we must reshape our view of conservation.
Simply setting aside land and saving species is not enough. Now we must
also keep dirty fossil fuel deposits and related CO2 in the ground. This
is conservation today. Habitat, water, air quality, ecosystems—viewed
through the lens of climate solutions with an eye toward justice for all.
Thousands of Sierra Club volunteer leaders in 65 chapters and 400 groups are at the heart
of conservation efforts in this country. These are your neighbors and colleagues who have
become experts on nearby watersheds, parks, and wild places. They understand local issues
and are invested for the long-term in protecting both human communities and the natural
environment.
On Alaska’s North Slope and in the Powder River Basin in Wyoming, we’re doing just that
by supporting efforts to expose industry plans to ravage remaining wild places with massive
mining efforts. Taken together, these exploits would cancel out all CO2 reductions from
President Obama’s recent fuel economy (CAFE) standards, and dump nine times more into
our environment.
On the public lands front, we are pushing the President to use his executive power to protect
more than 6 million acres as national monuments. At the same time, we’re helping pack
EPA hearing venues across the country to make strong industry regulations on fracking and
drilling stick.
This is conservation-in-action, emphasizing the preservation and restoration of our natural
resources for everyone. In the San Gabriel Mountains and Inyo National Forest, this means
supporting local—and predominantly Latino—communities by giving them the tools and
resources to explore their wild backyards and partnering with them in efforts to save them.
Empowering these communities and future environmentalists to explore, enjoy, and protect
the places they love is as important as any other conservation objective.
“Our parks, our
wildlife refuges and
our public lands
are uniquely ours,
uniquely American.
They are the places
we go with our
families to recreate,
to seek beauty or to
fi nd solitude. They
are our watersheds,
our wildlife habitat,
and our economic
engines. They are
our sources of
pride and history;
they’re where our
diverse stories are
celebrated.”

Achieving ambitious goals requires mobilizing unprecedented people
power. The environmental movement of the future must be bigger
and more diverse. It must better represent and amplify the voice of the
American people. And we are in a great position to help build it.
As we phase out fossil fuels, we have a responsibility to help communities affected by plant
closures to train and restructure their workforces to benefi t from the clean energy economy.
In places like Appalachia, this transition can be tough, and we’re supporting efforts to
help both companies and workers fi nd solutions. We also champion environmental justice
initiatives that empower those living near refi neries, plants, and mining operations to hold
corporations accountable for air and water pollution.
To protect something, you have to value it, and that value grows from experience—the
“explore and enjoy” part of Sierra Club’s motto. Each year, through Sierra Club Outdoors, we
get hundreds of thousands of military veterans and families, as well as underprivileged young
people into nature. These outings provide fi rst-hand experience in the natural world and
reasons to appreciate and protect it. From Maine to California, we help build relationships
with ranchers and Native American tribes whose ways of life are threatened by fracking and
pipeline expansion. We also partner with entrepreneurs in the clean tech sector to site more
clean energy responsibly, and with municipal and corporate fl eets to purchase more clean
cars.
Throughout it all, we support work that sets aside personal ambitions for the greater good.
We form coalitions and partnerships, and help build consensus. Because, ultimately, we all
need to work together to solve the big important problems.
“I was drawn to
the Sierra Club by
the energy and
activism I saw at the
Keystone XL rally in
Washington, D.C.
No group is better
positioned to unify
and build a large

The Sierra Club is at

fi ght, and I am eager
to support their
eff orts.”

our commitmentBECAUSE EVERY DOLLAR MATTERS
A fundamental shift from isolated self-interest to seeking solutions that
serve everyone is perhaps the paradoxical benefi t of climate disruption.
When we accept that all living things are bound together, interrelated
and interdependent, it changes the way we think and act. It makes us
better family members and neighbors. It makes us more compassionate
and passionate about the work we do, what we eat, how we power our
homes and vehicles.
As environmentalists, we see living with this knowledge as a gift to our generation, and our
responsibility to the next. That’s why we use our strong reputation in the philanthropic
community to support the Divest-Invest Initiative—an undertaking of 17 initial signatories
with a total asset base of $1.8 billion—committed to divesting from fossil fuels and investing
in clean energy and climate solutions.
It’s also why we support powerful and innovative programs to move beyond fossil fuels
and nurture tomorrow’s environmental champions. We enable the strength of Sierra Club’s
grassroots organizing, leveraging every dollar of staff time and program into 20 times that
amount in volunteer hours, pro-bono legal work, public service advertising, and enhanced
program capacity for environmental justice groups and partners.
We’re proud of our solid reputation for stewarding charitable contributions and assets
responsibly. We’ve earned a rare fi fth consecutive four-star rating from nonprofi t watchdog
Charity Navigator, as well as an A+ from the American Institute of Philanthropy. In the fi nal
analysis, we spend nearly 90 cents of every dollar directly on environmental and conservation
programs.
We do this because every dollar matters, and we are committed to making sure our donors’
dollars count.
“As we divest from
fossil fuels in an eff ort
to combat global
climate change, we
must also support
climate solutions
that will protect
our environment
and the health of
our communities.
TSCF is leading
this movement by
adopting a strategic,
forward-looking
investment model that
prioritizes alternatives
that make sense from
both an economic
and environmental
perspective.”

Phillip ‘Phil’ Berry
Although he was deeply involved in Sierra Club’s legal program for nearly fi ve decades, Phil Berry’s fi rst
mark on the Club’s legal history occurred before he had even completed law school. When then-Executive
Director David Brower became concerned that the Club might lose its tax-deductible status, Phil agreed to
talk to his law professors at Stanford, who assured him that the Club could indeed form a separate tax-
deductible entity. This advice led directly to the establishment of The Sierra Club Foundation.
“Phil reminds me of the bulldozers he has fought against over the years. In his case, however,
the world that we live in is a lot better for his having been there.”
– FREDERIC FISHER , CO-FOUNDER SIERRA CLUB LEGAL DEFENSE FUND
With his keen intellect, famous wit, and indefatigable commitment, Phil exercised a monumental infl uence
on the modern conservation movement—particularly in the fi eld of environmental law. Twice elected
president of the Sierra Club, Phil also spent 30 years on the Sierra Club Board of Directors, founded the
Sierra Club Legal Defense Fund (now known as Earthjustice), and served as the Club’s vice president
for legal affairs and chair of the Litigation Committee until his death in September of 2013. He was
instrumental in steering the course that established the Club as the nation’s largest and most effective
environmental organization.
In addition to his lifelong service, Phil was unfailingly generous with his time and fi nancial support for the
Sierra Club and The Sierra Club Foundation. The substantial legacy gift he has given will support both the
Environmental Law Program and important work to save wild tigers. We honor and appreciate Phil for his
decades of commitment and care.
Patrick ‘Pat’ Goldsworthy
Armed with expert map making skills, political savvy, and an uncompromising dedication to his work,
Dr. Patrick Goldsworthy relentlessly fought timber and mining interests in the Northwest. He is considered
a pioneer of the North Cascades conservation movement and was instrumental in preserving one of the
largest blocks of protected federal lands in the lower forty-eight states.
“Pat always impressed me as one of the true gentlemen of Northwest conservation.”
– TIM McNULTY, AUTHOR AND LONGTIME ACTIVIST WITH OLYMPIC PARK ASSOCIATES

Adding to his impressive list of environmental advocacy work, Pat contributed to landmark legislation
including the establishment of Glacier Peak Wilderness and the Wilderness Act. In 1968, when President
Lyndon Johnson signed the North Cascades Act into law, Pat stood by his side. A lifelong Sierra Club
leader, Pat founded the Northwest Chapter and served on the Board of Directors. He also co-founded the
North Cascades Conservation Council (NCCC), a group dedicated to protecting Washington’s treasured
wildlands and wildlife.
Pat remained a persistent force in wildlands protection up until his passing in October 2013. He was 94.
We are grateful for his incredible record of service. His unwavering passion for conservation will continue
to inspire the work of the Sierra Club and The Sierra Club Foundation.
Andrew ‘Andy’ Lewis
To safeguard free-fl owing rivers, help recover struggling salmon runs, and preserve important recreation
opportunities, Andy Lewis established the Washington State Sierra Club Chapter’s Water and Salmon
Committee. A tireless advocate for the protection of his state’s waters, he was a dedicated Club volunteer
for more than 25 years, most recently serving as Chapter Chair. Andy was also an accomplished rafter who
shared his enthusiasm by teaching others to be whitewater river guides.
“When he came to the offi ce, staff stopped whatever they were doing so they could have some
‘Andy time.’ Everyone wanted to be part of the inspiring and raucous conversation that always
accompanied his visits.”
– BILL ARTHUR, ASSOCIATE REGIONAL CAMPAIGN DIRECTOR, SIERRA CLUB’S BEYOND COAL CAMPAIGN
Andy also knew the importance of having public leaders champion the causes he held dear. Just last year, he
testifi ed at the Seattle hearing on coal exports, and Representative Suzan DelBene marked Andy’s passing
with a tribute that will live forever in the Congressional Record.
Although he left us suddenly and unexpectedly, Andy’s work will continue: He created a lead trust to
support salmon habitat conservation and restoration in the Northwest, a fi nal act of generosity toward the
causes he cared about so deeply.

When noted author and scientist Rachel Carson passed away in 1964, she left a
substantial bequest to the Sierra Club, including royalties from future sales of her
groundbreaking book, Silent Spring. Sierra Club’s Rachel Carson Society honors
her legacy by recognizing those who make a commitment to the environment by
including the Sierra Club or The Sierra Club Foundation in their estate plans.
