01 LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN
The current economic situation and its consequences have reinforced, even more than before, our long-term commitment and objective: to ensure that the Fundación Telefónica becomes an active promoter of a real social transformation. In 2010, we allocated over 82.05 million Euros to our social and cultural activities in close to 4,850 initiatives; many of which were in collaboration with 832 renowned educational, social and cultural institutions, both public and private, directly benefiting over 37.4 million people.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank each one of our employees and the collaborating organisations for their support for our efforts and their contribution to helping us achieve these results.

As part of this continuous dialogue with our stakeholders, we have emphasised the We wish to use this annual report to provide comments which some of them have made our stakeholders with a general overview of our throughout this report. strategic approach to integrating responsible management into all areas of the Fundación. Reporting standards MaterialityFor the first time, our annual report has been prepared under the IRIS (Impact Reporting As a basis for defining the content and to and Investment Standards) guidelines; this is guarantee the quality of the information in this an international initiative by the Rockefeller report, working with the Business Commitment Foundation which aims to create a common Foundation we have studied and identifi ed all framework for defining, monitoring, reporting relevant issues and key performance indicators on and comparing investments which have on which a corporate foundation must report in social and environmental impacts, as well as order to clearly demonstrate its commitment to to trying to determine the real exchange value the responsible performance of its activity. which these investments generate for society and the environment(www.iris.thegiin.org). As a result of this process, we have decided to prepare a shorter report than in previous years, centring ourselves on those aspects of responsible management and sustainability which are likely to be most signifi cant for our stakeholders.

Many of the IRIS indicators are compatible with the indicators included in the NGO Sector Supplement of the Global Reporting Initiative, a standard framework for not-for-profi t organisations to report their economic, social and environmental performance, and with which we also align ourselves. We have prepared this report in accordance with the GRI’s G3 guidelines and level A application requirements: this is in line with the classifi cation of the Telefónica Group, the Corporate Responsibility and sustainability policies of which directly affect us(www.globalreporting.org).
To obtain more detailed information on Fundación Telefónica’s compliance with the indicators of both guidelines, visit the 2010 Annual Report section at www.fundacion.telefonica.com.
Data measurement Finally, as in previous years, we have worked to prepare a clearer and more precise annual report, the information in which allows our stakeholders to evaluate the Fundación Telefónica’s performance and progress. Within this framework, the fi gure for people directly benefitting from the Fundación’s work originates from an internal computer system
for monitoring our programmes and projects. This computer application, which analyses more than 350 indicators, orders, classifi es and measures quantitative data on our initiatives in a structured manner: this enables us to always be aware of the progress of our programmes and projects with regards to the objectives set; to set out proposals for improvement of these; and to systematise information for external audit processes. All the quantitative data published in this report has been verified by the external auditors Ernst & Young and the London Benchmarking Group (LBG).

Today, Information and Communications Technologies (ICTs) have become a key part in the development of activities related to the social changes we are currently experiencing. For this reason, in recent years, we have focused on one area where we think the Fundación is especially suited to playing a transforming role, both due to our own knowledge and experience and that of Telefónica itself: facilitating access to knowledge to the greatest number of persons possible, in this way contributing to the educational, social and cultural development of communities.
