Transformative National Leadership: Global and Local Opportunities
President-elect Barack Obama and his family on election night
The Bay Area, the nation, and the world are enthusiastically looking forward to an exciting new social and political agenda outlined by President-elect Obama. Much of The San Francisco Foundation’s values, programs, and initiatives are aligned with those of the President-elect and his team.
Many of these values and priorities were exemplified during the long campaign and manifested in Nov. 4’s election demographics. The youth vote, first-time voter rolls, and turnout by people of color broke all previous records. President-elect Obama brings to the White House a history of grassroots community organizing and partnership with the nonprofit field.
We look forward to a national agenda that aligns with The San Francisco Foundation’s regional vision.
