Z. SMITH REYNOLDS ANNOUNCES FOCUS AREA CHANGES

Following a 2010 review, the ZSR Trustees have decided to make two changes in its Environmental Focus Area and its Social Justice and Equity Focus Area.

The Trustees decided to sharpen the Foundation’s focus on Clean Energy and Climate Action. To that end, a new “Results Sought” section has been added to the Environmental Focus Area of the website starting with the Foundation’s Spring 2011 grant cycle.

In addition, the Trustees conducted a review of its Social Justice and Equity focus area with a special attention on issues affecting women and families. Following the review, the Foundation decided to revise its current results and focus its grant making on primary strategies which will guide its investments in this area. The Foundation’s new primary strategies may be found in the Social Justice and Equity section of the website.
