Dear,

 

CCF logoHere at CCF, we're busy preparing for the 2010 Census, which starts its 100-day countdown on Dec. 1. Learn about the impact of our work in Los Angeles County through stories in our annual report, and highlights of our competitive grantmakingCentinela Medical Funds and Summer Youth Fund. We're also featuring a new, seminal report about our work to support troops, veterans and  families affected by deployment to Iraq and Afghanistan, a topic that remains as relevant in light of the tragic shootings in Ft. Hood. 

 

As we enter the season of giving back, we thank you for partnering with us in our efforts to build the future of L.A. and beyond.  

  

Sincerely,

Antonia Hernández
President & CEO
