Women Lead the Way

A look back at Women's History Month

 

Dear <<First Name>>,

Welcome to the first edition of The David and Lucile Packard Foundation newsletter. Through this quarterly compilation of news, announcements, and stories of impact, we hope to cultivate a sense of community and shared purpose. We invite you to join us in working with people and communities to create enduring solutions for just societies and a healthy, resilient natural world.   

In March, we celebrated the remarkable women who are at the forefront of positive change. Their stories, from founding new scientific fields to reimagining reproductive care, remind us of the power of women leadership and determination. 

We also introduced our new visual identity that emphasizes the interconnectedness of our approach to achieving a just and equitable world where people and nature flourish. The new design demonstrates how, just as individual threads come together to form a strong fabric, people and communities unite to achieve enduring solutions. 

Thank you for being a part of our community. Together, let’s continue to weave a brighter and more equitable future for all. 

Sincerely, 


Nancy Lindborg 
President and CEO 
The David and Lucile Packard Foundation
