Hernández, Antonia — California Community Foundation
Chief Executive
California Community Foundation
THE LATEST: In preparation for the 2020 Census, the California Community Foundation last September awarded $7 million in grants to local nonprofits for education and outreach across the region. A second wave of funding for the Get Out the Count education effort in December brought the year's total investment in the project to $12.5 million.
BACKGROUND: Hernández joined the California Community Foundation, which partners with more than 1, 600 individual, family and corporate donors, in 2004. One of Southern California's largest philanthropic organizations, the foundation holds assets of more than $1.7 billion. During her tenure Hernández has focused on health, housing and immigration programs. Previously, Hernández served as president and general counsel of the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund. She began her legal career as a staff attorney with the Los Angeles Center for Law and Justice and worked as counsel to the United States Senate Committee on the Judiciary.
