The California Endowment (www.calendow.org)
The California Endowment is a private, statewide health foundation that was created in 1996 as a result of Blue Cross of California's creation of WellPoint Health Networks, a for-profit corporation. This conversion set the groundwork for our mission to expand access to affordable, quality health care for underserved individuals and communities, and to promote fundamental improvements in the health status of all Californians.

The California Endowment’s vision for a healthy California involves more than the absence of disease. The California Endowment promotes community members and policymakers working together to improve health and health care and respect for the experience and knowledge of the people who are the most directly affected by health disparities.

The California Endowment’s goal is for all Californians to have a strong sense of self-worth and practice healthy lifestyles in communities where diversity is a source of strength, health problems are addressed promptly and effectively to minimize their consequences, and prevention is a shared agenda and partnership is the norm.
