White Road Investments This year marked the fifth anniversary of White Road Investments (WRI), our alternative investment firm that funds mission-driven companies. We’re more inspired than ever by the entrepreneurs we meet who are building businesses that contribute to a healthier, more sustainable planet. In 2015, BioLite joined our peloton. BioLite makes stoves, chargers, and lights that help power outdoor adventures and also support cleaner indoor air for families in developing countries. WRI also celebrated Wild Planet’s recognition by Greenpeace as the #1 sustainable brand of tuna. Farmhouse Culture opened its new fermentation facility among the organic cabbage fields of Central California (you’ve never tasted sauerkraut like this…and it’s organic). Santa Cruz Bicycles successfully exited from WRI and continues to expand its reach and impact on consumers striving for healthy, active lifestyles.

Clif Family At Clif Family Winery, our goal is to craft unique regional wines and food using practices that care for the earth and conserve biodiversity. In 2015 we launched our Sparkling Brut; our bruschetteria truck was named the “hottest new restaurant in St. Helena” by Sunset magazine; and we hosted a successful SeedFarmTable dinner fundraiser to highlight organic seed and its important role in a healthy, sustainable food future.

Clif Bar Family Foundation Clif Bar Family Foundation supports innovative small and midsized groups working to strengthen our food system and our communities, enhance public health, and safeguard our environment and natural resources. In 2015 the foundation awarded more than $3 million to 400+ pioneering organizations as well as to our organic seed initiative, Seed Matters.
