The Wallis Annenberg Legacy Foundation Thursday announced a $10 million gift supporting four of its signature initiatives reflecting the projects of its late founder.

The gift is the Legacy Foundation’s first major philanthropic initiative since Wallis Annenberg’s passing in late July and builds on nearly 15 years of the foundation’s work to ensure that support for her projects and initiatives would expand beyond her lifetime, according to the foundation.

The $10 million will be distributed across the Annenberg Community Beach House in Santa Monica, student internships at Wallis Annenberg Hall at USC, free and low-cost performances for underserved audiences at the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts in Beverly Hills, and the Wildlife Crossing Fund in Agoura Hills.
