can benefit whether they need basic services, education, or help to start a business.We utilize a family-centered. strategy, and identify everyone as future leaders - in their families, workplaces and community. Some of this year's key achievements:

• Open a Sustainable Business Center - Inspired by an exciting entrepreneurial spirit alive in the immigrant community, the SBC supports an ever growing number of entrepreneurs through trainings which incorporate green principles into building a successful business.We offer one-on-one business counseling and financial coaching, advanced workshops and our resource library.

• Developing Future Leaders - Canal Alliance was selected by the San Francisco Foundation to provide disaster relief services in OUI community, In partnership with SFF, the City of San Rafael, and the American Red Cross, we are developing Disaster Preparedness Plans and trainings so Canal residents can effectively respond and lead during a crisis. Other projects that build leadership include Community Gardens, participation in Census 2010, and starting a neighborhood Recycling Effort, for which our Youth Concilio won the National Geographic Green. Effects ProjectAward.

• Family-Centered Strategy - Through our English classes, youth education program., immigration legal services, and economic development work, we recognize that the family is the center of the immigrant community, Our holistic strategy focusing on family enables all to overcomechallenges that impede success. This approach strengthens families and cornmuniry,

Raquel DOll9S0 and Adriana Acosta, Canal Alliance Economic Development Coordinator, visit an Internet Access workshop.

Internet Access and Knowledge - Bridging the Digital Di'vide

Latino f~rnilies have the ~owe~t rates of home Internet access 111 Northern California, and therefore less access to services, learning and income opportunities. Through funding from The Latino Community Foundation, Canal Alliance is providing workshops that promote internet access and knowledge in Spanish to Latino residents of San Rafael, Santa Venetia and Novato.

Canal Alliance's Instructor Adriana Acosta is connecting families to low-cost computer options and internet access, providing knowledge about computer maintenance, and information about how use of the internet can directly impact personal and professional growth. Through this program, Latinos are gaining the skills, tools and resources they need to success.

LCF is proud to partner with Canal Alliance to increase internet access for latino families in Marin. These technology investments are crucial to eliminating the digital divide and creating opportunities for irnmiqrant and low-income families in this community.

Your values live on through Canal Alliance

LUCILE FESSENDE.N DANDELET, Photo-journal istand activist

This year Canal Alliance received a

share of the proceeds of a revocable living trust left by long-time donor Lucile Fessenden Dandelet, "Dandelet' (as she liked to be called) was a renowned photographer best known locally for her photos of the Frank Lloyd Wright's Civic Center as it was being built and of a retrospective she did of the labor movement led by Cesar Chavez.

Executive Director Torn Wilson had the fortune to visit with Dandelet often. "She was a warm and dynamic person with a great interest in social justice and equity. Her attraction to Canal Alliance was because of the work we do to support a community, the immigrant community, which is all too often marginalized and persecuted. With her art and philanthropic support, Dandelet's legacy continues to bring attention to oppressed people and their plight."

To secure her legacy, Lucile Dandelet used a Revocable Living Jrust, an estate planning tool that

allows assets to be passed to heirs without going through the process of probate, saving costs, time, and maintaining privacy. Revocable means that the trust may be changed at any time by the trustee, often the individual themselves.

You too may want to consider designating Canal Alliance as the beneficiary of your estate plan. Planned gifts (bequests, beneficiary designations of insurance or retirement funds, trusts) help guarantee that Canal Alliance can pursue its mission - developing self-sufficiency for a healthier conununity - while providing you and your family with significant tax benefits,

For more information on designating Canal Alliance as a beneficiary of your estate planning, call Janice Vela, Director of Development, at 415-306-0415. (In all cases Canal Alliance suggests that you consult with your own financial advisor.)
