Marie Chandoha is President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. and the funds covered in this report.

 
Dear Shareholder,
 
As President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for allowing us to serve your investment needs, and for reading this important communication concerning the performance of the Schwab money market funds. Although the investment environment has been challenging, recent signs suggest the potential for improvement.
 
During the year ended December 31, 2011, geopolitical unrest, natural disasters, legislative gridlock in the U.S., S&P’s downgrade of long-term U.S. sovereign debt, the euro zone’s ongoing debt crisis, and a shifting outlook regarding economic prospects resulted in a frequently volatile investment environment. Amid the market turbulence, bonds generated solid returns and money market securities continued to help investors preserve their hard-earned capital. On the equity side, U.S. stocks finished mixed after a year that generally favored defensive shares, dividend-paying stocks, and some of the largest blue-chip names. Record corporate profits and historically appealing levels for financial metrics such as price-to-earnings ratios served as part of the backdrop for the stock market’s performance, as did a fourth-quarter rally. The Dow Jones Industrial Average returned 8.38%, outpacing the 2.11% return of the S&P 500 Index, and the -4.18% loss posted by the small-cap Russell 2000 Index.
 
Early year optimism that U.S. economic growth would reach self-sustaining levels ultimately met with disappointing results. Inflation-adjusted U.S. economic activity (real GDP) expanded at a lackluster 0.4% annual pace in the first quarter of 2011. Although growth accelerated to a 2.8% annualized rate in the fourth quarter (advance estimate), the year’s overall level of activity represented a deceleration from the 3.0% pace achieved in 2010. As a result, companies remained reluctant to add employees at a consistently meaningful pace and the unemployment rate hovered around 9.0% for most of 2011, before trending lower during the final months of the year.
 
Attempting to right the unsettled economic landscape, the Federal Reserve (the Fed) implemented a variety of conventional and unconventional monetary operations. On the more conventional side, the Fed kept the federal funds rate target at a historically low 0-0.25%, where rates have held since they were first cut to that level in December 2008. Less conventionally, the Fed completed a second round of quantitative easing in June, purchasing approximately $600 billion of long-term Treasuries over roughly a 10-month period. This effort was designed to spark a faster rate of expansion by keeping long-term interest rates low. In late September, the Fed began “Operation Twist,” an attempt to further reduce long-term interest rates and help the still-troubled U.S. housing sector, while essentially holding short-term rates steady.
 
This collective backdrop paved the way for solid returns by fixed-income securities. U.S. Treasuries turned in particularly strong performances, thanks in part to intermittent bouts of investors looking for a safe haven. The U.S. Treasury sector of the Barclays Aggregate U.S. Bond Index returned 9.81% for the 12 months, the U.S. Agency sector returned 4.82%, and the Corporate sector returned 8.15%, while the longer maturities in each of these categories easily outperformed shorter maturities. The rally also pushed down the yield of the 10-year Treasury bond to only 1.89% by

the end of 2011, marking the first time in more than three decades that the yield on the benchmark bond finished a calendar year below 2.0%.
 
Money market instruments continued to offer a compelling means of achieving capital preservation for investors, even while posting near-zero returns. The historically low interest rate environment and periodic flights to safety drove up demand for short-term, highly liquid investments, a process that further reduced the already low yields on money market securities.

Schwab Retirement Advantage Money Fund
 
 
The Schwab Retirement Advantage Money Fund (the fund) seeks the highest current income consistent with stability of capital and liquidity. To pursue its goal, the fund invests in high-quality short-term money market investments issued by U.S. and foreign issuers. Examples of these securities include commercial paper, certificates of deposit, repurchase agreements, variable-rate debt securities, and obligations issued by the U.S. government, its agencies, or instrumentalities. Since December 2008, when the Federal Reserve (the Fed) first cut short-term interest rates to present-day levels, yields on money market securities have remained historically low. This trend continued during the report period.
 
As a result, the fund’s investment adviser and its affiliates voluntarily waived certain fees or expenses for the 12 months ended December 31, 2011, to help the fund maintain a positive net yield.* For more information about the fund’s yield and other important characteristics, please review the charts and footnotes that follow this discussion.
 
Market Highlights. Robust demand combined with limited supply continued to drive yields on taxable money market securities lower. Concern that the euro zone’s sovereign debt crisis could spread from Greece, Ireland, and Portugal to larger European countries featured prominently in that mix. Additionally, the downgrade of long-term U.S. debt by Standard & Poor’s heightened investors’ appetite for money market instruments, sparking a flight to quality. Amid that backdrop, investors turned to regions such as Canada and Australia as well, pressuring yields lower in these regions in the process.
 
From a supply standpoint, issuance declined across several money market sectors, including commercial paper, Treasury bills, and government agency discount notes. The Fed concluded its Supplemental Financing Program as the government ran up against budgetary constraints, removing approximately $200 billion of Treasury bills from the market. Issuance of government agency discount notes from the Federal Home Loan Bank System declined sharply as well.
 
Positioning and Strategies. The fund’s investment adviser focused on stability of capital and ensured robust liquidity amid the volatile market backdrop, and strategically managed the portfolio based upon developing conditions. For example, the fund’s weighted average maturity (WAM) was proactively reduced from roughly 40 days early in the second half of 2011 to approximately 36 days by late September, as the euro zone’s debt crisis again took center stage. In addition, the fund’s holdings in Spain and Italy were eliminated as the crisis began to spread. Exposure to some European banks, most specifically those in the euro zone, were also selectively pared back. As a result of these changes and in an effort to maintain a stable net asset value, the adviser reduced the fund’s WAM to 32 days by the end of 2011.

2 Yield reflects the effect of the fund’s agreement with the investment adviser and its affiliates to limit each share class’s total annual operating expenses to certain levels (contractual expense limitation). In addition, the investment adviser and its affiliates have voluntarily waived expenses in excess of the contractual expense limitation to maintain a positive net yield for the fund (voluntary expense waiver). Without the contractual expense limitation and the voluntary expense waiver, the fund’s yield would have been lower. For additional details, see financial note 4.

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
 
 Examples for a $1,000 Investment
 
As a fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: transaction costs, such as redemption fees; and, ongoing costs, such as management fees, transfer agent and shareholder services fees, and other fund expenses.
 
The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare this cost with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for six months beginning July 1, 2011 and held through December 31, 2011.
 
Actual Return lines in the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value ¸ $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund or share class under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period.”
 
Hypothetical Return lines in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a fund’s or share class’ actual expense ratio and an assumed return of 5% per year before expenses. Because the return used is not an actual return, it may not be used to estimate the actual ending account value or expenses you paid for the period.
 
You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
 
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only, and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees. If these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

The fund’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be viewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C. Call 1-800-SEC-0330 for information on the operation of the Public Reference Room. The fund also files a complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC monthly on Form N-MFP which is available 60 days after the end of the month to which the information pertains. A monthly schedule of portfolio holdings is also available by visiting the fund’s website at www.schwabfunds.com/prospectus along with a link to the fund’s Form N-MFP filings on the SEC’s website.
 
For fixed rate obligations, the rate shown is the coupon rate (the rate established when the obligation was issued) and if the coupon rate is not available, the effective yield at the time of purchase is shown. For variable-rate obligations, the rate shown is the interest rate as of the report date. If the security’s structure includes one of a number of maturity-shortening provisions set forth in Rule 2a-7, such as an interest rate reset, demand feature or put feature, the effective maturity date is disclosed. In addition, the second maturity date shown is either the date on which the principal amount must be paid or the date payment must be made pursuant to a demand feature. If the effective maturity and maturity date are the same, the date will appear in the maturity date column.

Portfolio Holdings as of December 31, 2011
 
 
This section shows all the securities in the fund’s portfolio and their values as of the report date.
 
The fund files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarter of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. The fund’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be viewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C. Call 1-800-SEC-0330 for information on the operation of the Public Reference Room. The fund also files a complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC monthly on Form N-MFP which is available 60 days after the end of the month to which the information pertains. A monthly schedule of portfolio holdings is also available by visiting the fund’s website at www.schwabfunds.com/prospectus along with a link to the fund’s Form N-MFP filings on the SEC’s website.
 
For fixed rate obligations, the rate shown is the coupon rate (the rate established when the obligation was issued) and if the coupon rate is not available, the effective yield at the time of purchase is shown. For variable-rate obligations, the rate shown is the interest rate as of the report date. If the security’s structure includes one of a number of maturity-shortening provisions set forth in Rule 2a-7, such as an interest rate reset, demand feature or put feature, the effective maturity date is disclosed. In addition, the second maturity date shown is either the date on which the principal amount must be paid or the date payment must be made pursuant to a demand feature. If the effective maturity and maturity date are the same, the date will appear in the maturity date column.

Financial Notes
 
 
1. Business Structure of the Funds:
 
Each of the funds discussed in this report is a series of The Charles Schwab Family of Funds (the “trust”), a no-load, open-end management investment company. The trust is organized as a Massachusetts business trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The list below shows all the funds in the trust as of the end of the period, including the funds discussed in this report, which are highlighted:
 
         
 
The Charles Schwab Family of Funds (organized October 20, 1989)
 
Schwab Municipal Money Fund
   
Schwab Money Market Fund
 
Schwab AMT Tax-Free Money Fund
   
Schwab Government Money Fund
 
Schwab California Municipal Money Fund
   
Schwab U.S. Treasury Money Fund (closed to new investors)
 
Schwab California AMT Tax-Free Money Fund
   
Schwab Value Advantage Money Fund
 
Schwab New York AMT Tax-Free Money Fund
   
Schwab Advisor Cash Reserves
 
Schwab New Jersey AMT Tax-Free Money Fund
   
Schwab Cash Reserves
 
Schwab Pennsylvania Municipal Money Fund
   
Schwab Retirement Advantage Money Fund
 
Schwab Massachusetts AMT Tax-Free Money Fund
   
Schwab Investor Money Fund
       
 
 
Schwab Retirement Advantage Money Fund and Schwab Investor Money Fund each offers one share class. Shares are bought and sold at closing net asset value (“NAV”), which is the price of all outstanding shares of the funds. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the Board of Trustees may authorize the issuance of as many shares as necessary.
 
Each fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, each fund may also keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities law.
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
 
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds use in their preparation of financial statements. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
 
(a) Security Valuation:
 
Securities in the funds are valued at amortized cost (which approximates market value) as permitted in accordance with Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act. In the event that security valuations do not approximate market value, securities may be valued as determined in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees.
 
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the funds disclose the fair value of their investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). If the funds determine that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to estimate fair value.
 
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
 
  •  Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities — Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and whose values are therefore classified as Level 1 prices, include active listed equities. The funds do not adjust the quoted prices for such investments, even in situations where the funds hold a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted prices.
 
  •  Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) — Investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but whose values are based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or valuations provided by alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified as Level 2 prices. These generally include U.S. government and sovereign obligations, most government agency securities, investment-grade corporate bonds, certain mortgage products, less liquid listed equities, and state, municipal and provincial obligations. As investments whose values are classified as Level 2 prices include positions that are not traded in active markets and/or are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations may be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, which are generally based on available market information.

Financial Notes (continued)
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
  funds operating under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act are valued at amortized cost which approximates current market value and are considered to be valued using Level 2 inputs.
 
  •  Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) — Investments whose values are classified as Level 3 prices have significant unobservable inputs, as they may trade infrequently or not at all. When observable prices are not available for these securities, the funds use one or more valuation techniques for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used by the funds in estimating the value of Level 3 prices may include the original transaction price, quoted prices for similar securities or assets in active markets, completed or pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows. Level 3 prices may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by the funds in the absence of market information. Assumptions used by the funds due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the funds’ results of operations.
 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. At December 31, 2011, all of the funds’ investment securities were classified as Level 2. The breakdown of the funds’ investments into major categories is disclosed on the portfolio holdings.
 
The funds’ policy is to recognize transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 as of the beginning of the fiscal year. There were no significant transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 for the period ended December 31, 2011.
 
(b) Accounting Policies for certain Portfolio Investments (if held):
 
Repurchase Agreements: In a repurchase agreement, a fund buys a security from another party (usually a financial institution) with the agreement that it be sold back in the future. Repurchase agreements subject a fund to counterparty risk, meaning that the fund could lose money if the other party fails to perform under the terms of the agreement. The funds mitigate this risk by ensuring that the funds’ repurchase agreements are collateralized by cash, U.S. government securities, fixed income securities, equity securities or other types of securities. All collateral is held by the funds’ custodian (or, with multi-party agreements, the agent’s bank) and is monitored daily to ensure that its market value is at least equal to the repurchase price under the agreement. Investments in repurchase agreements are also based on a review of the credit quality of the repurchase agreement counterparty.
 
Delayed-Delivery Transactions: The funds may buy securities at a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place after the customary settlement period for that type of security. The funds will assume the rights and risks of ownership at the time of purchase, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations. Typically, no interest will accrue to a fund until the security is delivered. The funds will earmark or segregate appropriate liquid assets to cover its delayed-delivery purchase obligations.
 
(c) Security Transactions:
 
Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains or losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved.
 
(d) Investment Income:
 
Interest income is recorded as it accrues. If a fund buys a debt security at a discount (less than face value) or a premium (more than face value), it amortizes the discount or premium from the current date up to maturity. The fund then increases (in the case of discounts) or reduces (in the case of premiums) the income it records from the security. If the security is callable (meaning that the issuer has the option to pay it off before its maturity date), then the fund amortizes the premium to the security’s call date and price, rather than the maturity date and price.
 
(e) Expenses:
 
Expenses that are specific to a fund are charged directly to the fund. Expenses that are common to all funds within the trust generally are allocated among the funds in proportion to their average daily net assets.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
(f) Distributions to Shareholders:
 
The funds declare distributions from net investment income, if any, every day they are open for business. These distributions, which are substantially equal to the funds’ net investment income for that day, are paid out to shareholders once a month. The funds make distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, once a year.
 
(g) Custody Credit:
 
The funds have an arrangement with their custodian bank, State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”), under which the funds receive a credit for their uninvested cash balance to offset their custody fees and accounting fees. The credit amounts, if any, are disclosed in the Statement of Operations as a reduction to the funds’ operating expenses.
 
(h) Accounting Estimates:
 
The accounting policies described in this report conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It’s possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates and these differences may be material.
 
(i) Federal Income Taxes:
 
The funds intend to meet federal income and excise tax requirements for regulated investment companies. Accordingly, the funds distribute substantially all of their net investment income and realized net capital gains, if any, to their respective shareholders each year. As long as a fund meets the tax requirements, it is not required to pay federal income tax.
 
(j) Indemnification:
 
Under the funds’ organizational documents, the officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal course of business the funds enter into contracts with their vendors and others that provide general indemnifications. The funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the funds. However, based on experience, the funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
 
(k) New Accounting Pronouncements:
 
In April 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) related to accounting for repurchase agreements and similar agreements that both entitle and obligate a transferor to repurchase or redeem financial assets before their maturity. The ASU modifies the criteria for determining effective control of transferred assets and as a result certain agreements may now be accounted for as secured borrowings. The ASU is effective prospectively for new and existing transfers that are modified in the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011.
 
In May 2011, the FASB issued an update to requirements relating to “Fair Value Measurement which represents amendments to achieve common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in US GAAP and IFRS.” The amendments include (i) those that clarify the FASB’s intent about the application of existing fair value measurement and disclosure requirements and (ii) those that change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. The amendments that change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or disclosing information about fair value measurements relate to (i) measuring the fair value of the financial instruments that are managed within a portfolio; (ii) application of premium and discount in a fair value measurement; and (iii) additional disclosures about fair value measurements. The update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 with early adoption prohibited.
 
At this time, management is evaluating the implications of these changes and their impact on the financial statements.

3. Risk Factors:
 
An investment in a fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the funds seek to preserve the value of a shareholder’s investment at $1 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the funds.
 
Interest rates rise and fall over time. As with any investment whose yield reflects current interest rates, a fund’s yield will change over time. During periods when interest rates are low, a fund’s yield (and total return) also will be low. In addition, to the extent a fund makes any reimbursement payments to the investment adviser and/or its affiliates, the fund’s yield would be lower.
 
A fund is subject to the risk that a decline in the credit quality of a portfolio investment could cause the fund to lose money or underperform. A fund could lose money if the issuer of a portfolio investment fails to make timely principal or interest payments or if a guarantor, liquidity provider or counterparty of a portfolio investment fails to otherwise honor its obligations. Even though a fund’s investments in repurchase agreements are collateralized at all times, there is some risk to the fund if the other party should default on its obligations and the fund is delayed or prevented from recovering or disposing of the collateral. The negative perceptions of the ability of an issuer, guarantor, liquidity provider or counterparty to make payments or otherwise honor its obligations, as applicable, could also cause the price of that investment to decline. The credit quality of a fund’s portfolio holdings can change rapidly in certain market environments and any downgrade or default on the part of a single portfolio investment could cause the fund’s share price or yield to fall.
 
Many of the U.S. government securities that the funds invest in are not backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government, which means they are neither issued nor guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. There can be no assurance that the U.S. government will provide financial support to securities of its agencies and instrumentalities if it is not obligated to do so under law. Also, any government guarantees on securities a fund owns do not extend to the shares of the fund itself.
 
A fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers or securities with credit or liquidity enhancements provided by foreign entities may involve certain risks that are greater than those associated with investments in securities of U.S. issuers or securities with credit or liquidity enhancements provided by U.S. entities. These include risks of adverse changes in foreign economic, political, regulatory and other conditions; differing accounting, auditing, financial reporting and legal standards and practices; differing securities market structures; and higher transaction costs. In addition, sovereign risk, or the risk that a government may become unwilling or unable to meet its loan obligations or guarantees, could increase the credit risk of financial institutions connected to that particular country.
 
Any actively managed mutual fund is subject to the risk that its investment adviser will make poor security selections. A fund’s investment adviser applies its own investment techniques and risk analyses in making investment decisions for the fund, but there can be no guarantee that they will produce the desired results. The investment adviser’s maturity decisions will also affect a fund’s yield, and in unusual circumstances potentially could affect its share price. To the extent that the investment adviser anticipates interest rate trends imprecisely, a fund’s yield at times could lag those of other money market funds.
 
Liquidity risk exists when particular investments are difficult to purchase or sell. The market for certain investments may become illiquid due to specific adverse changes in the conditions of a particular issuer or under adverse market or economic conditions independent of the issuer. A fund’s investments in illiquid securities may reduce the returns of the fund because it may be unable to sell the illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price. Further, transactions in illiquid securities may entail transactions costs that are higher than those for transactions in liquid securities.
 
A fund may experience periods of heavy redemptions that could cause the fund to liquidate its assets at inopportune times or at a loss or depressed value, particularly during periods of declining or illiquid markets. Redemptions by a few large investors in a fund may have a significant adverse effect on the fund’s ability to maintain a stable $1.00 share price. In the event any money market fund fails to maintain a stable net asset value, other money market funds, including the funds, could face a market-wide risk of increased redemption pressures, potentially jeopardizing the stability of their $1.00 share prices.
 
The funds are not designed to offer capital appreciation. In exchange for their emphasis on stability and liquidity, money market investments may offer lower long-term performance than stock or bond investments.
 
Please refer to the funds’ prospectus for a more complete description of the principal risks of investing in the funds.

Financial Notes (continued)
 
4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions:
 
Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (“CSIM” or the “investment adviser”), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Charles Schwab Corporation, serves as each fund’s investment adviser and administrator pursuant to an Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement (“Advisory Agreement”) between CSIM and the trust.
 
For its advisory and administrative services to the funds, CSIM is entitled to receive an annual fee, payable monthly, based on a percentage of each fund’s average daily net assets as follows:
 
         
Average Daily Net Assets
   
 
First $1 billion
    0.35%  
More than $1 billion but not exceeding $10 billion
    0.32%  
More than $10 billion but not exceeding $20 billion
    0.30%  
More than $20 billion but not exceeding $40 billion
    0.27%  
Over $40 billion
    0.25%  
 
The Board of Trustees has adopted a Shareholder Servicing and Sweep Administration Plan (the “Plan”) on behalf of the funds. The Plan enables each fund to bear expenses relating to the provision by service providers, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (a broker-dealer affiliate of CSIM, “Schwab”), of certain account maintenance, customer liaison and shareholder services to the current shareholders of the funds. Schwab serves as the funds’ paying agent under the Plan for making payments of the shareholder service fee due to the service providers (other than Schwab) under the Plan. All shareholder service fees paid by the funds to Schwab in its capacity as the funds’ paying agent will be passed through to the service providers, and Schwab will not retain any portion of such fees.
 
Pursuant to the Plan, each fund’s shares are subject to an annual shareholder servicing fee up to the amount set forth in the table below. The shareholder servicing fee paid to a particular service provider is made pursuant to its written agreement with Schwab (or, in the case of payments made to Schwab, pursuant to Schwab’s written agreement with the funds), and the funds will pay no more than the amounts listed in the table below of the average daily net asset value of the funds shares owned by shareholders holding shares through such service providers. Payments under the annual Plan are made as described above regardless of Schwab’s or the service provider’s actual cost of providing the services. If the cost of providing the services under the Plan is less than the payments received, the unexpended portion of the fees may be retained as profit by Schwab or the service provider.
 
         
   
Shareholder Service Fees
 
Schwab Retirement Advantage Money Fund
    0.22%  
Schwab Investor Money Fund
    0.25%  
 
Contractual Expense Limitations
 
Although these agreements specify certain fees for these services, CSIM and Schwab have made an additional agreement (“expense limitation”) with the Schwab Retirement Advantage Money Fund to limit the total annual fund operating expenses, excluding interest, taxes, and certain non-routine expenses, to 0.49% through April 29, 2013, which may only be amended or terminated with the approval of the fund’s Board of Trustees.
 
In addition, effective January 1, 2011 through December 31, 2011, CSIM and Schwab agreed to waive an additional amount of the Schwab Retirement Advantage Money Fund and Schwab Investor Money Fund expenses equal to 0.035% of the funds’ average daily net assets.
 
Voluntary Expense Waiver/Reimbursement
 
In addition to the contractual expense limitation agreements noted above, Schwab and the investment adviser also may waive and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to maintain a positive net yield for each fund. Schwab and the investment adviser may recapture from a fund any of these expenses or fees they have waived and/or reimbursed until the third anniversary of the end of the fiscal year in which such waiver and/or reimbursement occurs, subject to certain limitations. The reimbursement payments by a fund to Schwab and/or the investment adviser are considered “non-routine expenses” and are not subject to any net operating expense limitations in effect at the time of such payment. This recapture could negatively affect the

funds’ future yield. There were no prior year amounts recaptured. As of December 31, 2011, the balance of recoupable expenses is as follows:

Schwab Investor Money Fund
    $2,068,715       $3,969,429       $4,664,552       $10,702,696  
 
The funds may engage in direct transactions with certain other Schwab Funds when practical. When one fund is seeking to sell a security that another is seeking to buy, an interfund transaction can allow both funds to benefit by reducing transaction costs. This practice is limited to funds that share the same investment adviser, trustees and/or officers. For the period ended December 31, 2011, each fund’s total aggregate security transactions with other Schwab Funds were as follows:
 
         
Schwab Retirement Advantage Money Fund
    $3,000,000  
Schwab Investor Money Fund
     
 
Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the funds may enter into interfund borrowing and lending transactions with other Schwab Funds. All loans are for temporary or emergency purposes only. The interest rate charged on the loan is the average of the overnight repurchase agreement rate and the short-term bank loan rate. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review of the Board of Trustees of the Schwab Funds. The funds had no interfund borrowing or lending activity during the period.
 
On September 14, 2010, The Charles Schwab Corporation made a payment of $471,270 to Schwab Retirement Advantage Fund and $1,351,086 to Schwab Investor Money Fund to cover the net remaining losses recognized as a result of its investment in a single structured investment vehicle that defaulted in 2008. This payment represented 0.1% of the funds’ net assets on that date.
 
5. Transfer Agent Services:
 
Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. (“BFDS”) provides transfer agent services for each fund.
 
6. Board of Trustees:
 
Trustees may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The trust did not pay any of these interested persons for their services as trustees, but it did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted in each fund’s Statement of Operations.
 
7. Borrowing from Banks:
 
The funds have access to custodian overdraft facilities, a committed line of credit of $150 million with State Street Bank and Trust (“State Street”), an uncommitted line of credit of $100 million with Bank of America, N.A. and an uncommitted line of credit of $50 million with Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. The funds pay interest on the amounts they borrow at rates that are negotiated periodically. The funds also pay an annual fee to State Street for the committed line of credit.
 
There were no borrowings from the lines of credit by the funds during the period. However, the funds may have utilized their overdraft facility and incurred interest expense, which is disclosed in the Statement of Operations, if any. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.
 
8. Federal Income Taxes:
 
As of December 31, 2011, the components of distributable earnings on a tax-basis were as follows:
 
                 
    Schwab
  Schwab
    Retirement Advantage
  Investor

8. Federal Income Taxes (continued):
 
Capital loss carryforwards may be used to offset future realized capital gains, for federal income tax purposes. As of December 31, 2011, the following funds had capital loss carryforwards available to offset future net capital gains before the expiration dates:
 
                 
    Schwab
  Schwab
    Retirement Advantage
  Investor

Money Fund
 
Money Fund
 
December 31, 2017
    $—       $84,641  
 
For tax purposes, realized net capital losses incurred after October 31 may be deferred and treated as occurring on the first day of the following year. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the funds had no capital losses deferred and had capital losses utilized as follows:
 
                 
    Schwab
  Schwab
    Retirement Advantage
  Investor
   
Money Fund
 
Money Fund
 
Capital losses utilized
    $—       $392  
 
The tax-basis components of distributions paid during the current and prior fiscal years were:
 
                 
    Schwab
  Schwab
    Retirement Advantage
  Investor
   
Money Fund
 
Money Fund
 
Current period distributions
Ordinary income
    $87,958       $138,893  
 
Prior period distributions
Ordinary income
    $88,624       $163,480  
 
Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income and net realized gains determined on a tax basis, which may differ from net investment income and net realized gains for financial reporting purposes. These differences are due primarily to differing treatment for items such as short-term capital gains. The fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year in which the net investment income and net realized gains are recorded by the funds for financial reporting purposes. The funds may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.
 
Permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between capital account and other accounts as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. As of December 31, 2011, the funds made the following reclassifications:
 
                 
    Schwab
  Schwab
    Retirement Advantage
  Investor
   
Money Fund
 
Money Fund
 
Capital shares
    ($1,071 )     $—  
Undistributed net investment income
    1,266        
Net realized capital gains and losses
    (195 )      
 
As of December 31, 2011, management has reviewed the tax positions for open periods (for federal purposes, three years from the date of filing and for state purposes, four years from the date of filing) as applicable to the funds, and has determined that no provision for income tax is required in the funds’ financial statements. The funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period ended December 31, 2011, the funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
 
On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (“the Act”) was signed by the President. The Act is the first major piece of legislation affecting Regulated Investment Companies (“RICs”) since 1986 and it modernizes several of the federal income and excise tax provisions related to RICs.

8. Federal Income Taxes (continued):
 
Certain of the enacted provisions include:
 
Post-enactment capital losses may now be carried forward indefinitely, but must retain the character of the original loss. Under pre-enactment law, capital losses could be carried forward for eight years, and carried forward as short-term capital, irrespective of the character of the original loss. The Act contains simplification provisions, which are aimed at preventing disqualification of a RIC for “inadvertent” failures of the asset diversification and/or qualifying income tests. Additionally, the Act exempts RICs from the preferential dividend rule, and repeals the 60-day designation requirement for certain types of pay-through income and gains.
 
Finally, the Act contains several provisions aimed at preserving the character of distributions made by a fiscal year RIC during the portion of its taxable year ending after October 31 or December 31, reducing the circumstances under which a RIC might be required to file amended Forms 1099 to restate previously reported distributions.
 
Except for the simplification provisions related to RIC qualification, the Act is effective for taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010. The provisions related to RIC qualification are effective for taxable years for which the extended due date of the tax return is after December 22, 2010.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
 
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of:
Schwab Retirement Advantage Money Fund
Schwab Investor Money Fund
 
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio holdings, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Schwab Retirement Advantage Money Fund and Schwab Investor Money Fund (two of the portfolios constituting The Charles Schwab Family of Funds, hereafter referred to as the “Funds”) at December 31, 2011, and the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2011 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Glossary
 
 
agency discount notes Notes issued by federal agencies—known as Government Sponsored Enterprises, or GSEs—at a discount to their value at maturity. An agency discount note is a short-term investment alternative offering a high degree of credit quality.
 
asset-backed commercial paper A short-term investment that is typically issued by a bank or other financial institution. The notes represent an interest in financial assets such as trade receivables, credit card receivables, auto receivables, etc. and are generally used for the short-term financing needs of companies.
 
Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index A broad-based benchmark that measures the investment grade, U.S. dollar-denominated, fixed-rate taxable bond market, including Treasuries, government-related and corporate securities, mortgage-back securities (agency fixed-rate and hybrid ARM passthroughs), asset-backed securities, and commercial mortgage-backed securities.
 
Barclays Capital U.S. TIPS Index (Series-L) A rules-based, market value-weighted index that tracks inflation-protected securities issued by the U.S. Treasury that have at least one year remaining to maturity, are rated investment grade and have $250 million or more of outstanding face value.
 
capital gain, capital loss The difference between the amount paid for an investment and its value at a later time. If the investment has been sold, the capital gain or loss is considered a realized gain or loss. If the investment is still held, the gain or loss is still “on paper” and is considered unrealized.
 
commercial paper Promissory notes issued by banks, corporations and other entities to finance short-term credit needs. These securities generally are structured on a discounted basis but sometimes may be interest-bearing notes. Commercial paper, which may be unsecured, is subject to credit risk.
 
corporate note An unsecured debt security issued by a corporation that is subject to the credit risk of the issuer.
 
credit-enhanced securities Securities that are backed by the credit of an entity other than the issuer (such as a financial institution). Credit enhancements, which can equal up to 100% of the security’s value, are designed to help lower the risk of default on a security and may also make the security more liquid.
 
credit quality The capacity of an issuer to make its interest and principal payments. Federal regulations strictly regulate the credit quality of the securities a money market fund can buy.
 
credit ratings Debt issuers, including corporations, states and municipalities, may arrange with a recognized independent rating organization, such as Standard & Poor’s, Fitch, Inc. and Moody’s Investor Service, to rate their creditworthiness and/or the creditworthiness of their debt issues. For example, an issuer may obtain a long-term rating within the investment grade rating category, which is, from high to low, AAA, AA, A and BBB for Standard & Poor’s and Fitch, and Aaa, Aa, A and Baa for Moody’s.
 
credit risk The risk that a debt issuer may be unable to pay interest or repay principal to its debt holders.
 
dollar-weighted average maturity (DWAM) See weighted average maturity.
 
effective yield A measurement of a fund’s yield that assumes that all interest income is reinvested in additional shares of the fund.
 
expense ratio The amount that is taken from a mutual fund’s assets each year to cover the fund’s operating expenses. An expense ratio of 0.50% means that a fund’s expenses amount to half of one percent of its average net assets for the year.
 
face value The value of a bond, note, mortgage or other security as given on the certificate or instrument. Face value is also referred to as par value or nominal value.
 
illiquid securities Securities are generally considered illiquid if they cannot be disposed of promptly (typically within seven days) and in the ordinary course of business at approximately the amount at which a fund has valued the instruments.
 
interest Payments to holders of debt securities as compensation for loaning a security’s principal to the issuer.
 
liquidity-enhanced security The security’s structure includes a liquidity arrangement that requires an entity other than the issuer (such as a large financial institution) to provide funds to pay a tender under most circumstances. Liquidity enhancements are often used on variable-rate securities where the portfolio manager has an option to tender the securities for repayment within a specified time period (usually one day or one week) at any time prior to their final maturity.
 
maturity The date a debt security is scheduled to be “retired” and its principal amount repaid. The Maturity of an investment will generally reflect the security’s final maturity date unless the security’s structure includes a maturity-shortening provision such as an interest rate reset, demand feature or put feature (the “Effective Maturity Date”). For those securities with a maturity-shortening provision, including variable-rate demand securities, the Maturity is determined by using the Effective Maturity Date, as permitted by Rule 2a-7.
 
MSCI EAFE (Europe, Australasia, Far East) Index A free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets, excluding the US & Canada.
 
municipal securities Debt securities issued by a state, its counties, municipalities, authorities and other subdivisions, or the territories and possessions of the United States and the District of Columbia, including their subdivisions, agencies and instrumentalities and corporations. These securities may be issued to obtain money for various public purposes, including the construction of a wide range of public facilities such as airports, bridges, highways, housing, hospitals, mass transportation, public utilities, schools, streets, and water and sewer works.
 
net asset value per share (NAV) The value of one share of a mutual fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets, subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding. Money funds seek to maintain a steady NAV of $1.00.
 
outstanding shares, shares outstanding When speaking of a company or mutual fund, indicates all shares currently held by investors.
 
restricted securities Securities that are subject to contractual restrictions on resale. These securities are often purchased in private placement transactions.
 
S&P 500 Index A market capitalization index that is designed to measure the performance of 500 leading publicly held companies in leading industries of the U.S. economy.

section 3c7 securities Section 3c7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) exempts certain issuers from many regulatory requirements applicable to investment companies under the 1940 Act. An issuer whose outstanding securities are exclusively owned by “qualified purchasers” and who is not making or proposing to make a public offering of the securities may qualify for this exemption.
 
section 4(2)/144A securities Securities exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. These securities may be sold only to qualified institutional buyers under Securities Act Rule 144A.
 
taxable-equivalent yield The yield an investor would need to get from a taxable investment in order to match the yield paid by a given tax-exempt investment, once the effect of all applicable taxes is taken into account. For example, if your tax rate were 25%, a tax-exempt investment paying 4.5% would have a taxable-equivalent yield for you of 6.0% (4.5% ¸ [1 − 0.25%] = 6.0%).
 
Tier 1, Tier 2 Tier 1 is the highest category of credit quality, Tier 2 the second highest. A security’s tier can be established either by an independent rating organization or by a determination of the investment adviser. Money market fund shares and U.S. government securities are automatically considered Tier 1 securities. The Schwab Money Funds only purchase securities which are considered to be Tier 1; however, they may hold Tier 2 securities as a result of a downgrade of a portfolio security.
 
total return The percentage that an investor would have earned or lost on an investment in the fund assuming dividends and distributions were reinvested.
 
weighted average life (WAL) For money market mutual funds as per rule 2a-7, the weighted average life calculation takes into account either the final maturity date for each security held in the portfolio or, when relevant, the date of the next demand feature (when the fund is scheduled to receive payment of principal and interest after a demand). Money funds are required to maintain a weighted average life of no more than 120 days. Weighted average life for all Schwab money market funds is available in each fund’s monthly schedule of portfolio holdings at www.schwabfunds.com/prospectus and also available in each fund’s Form N-MFP on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov 60 days after the end of the month to which the information pertains.
 
weighted average maturity (WAM) For money market mutual funds as per rule 2a-7, the maturity date or Effective Maturity Date (see definition of maturity) of all the debt securities in its portfolio, or the date the interest rate on those securities is reset, or the date those securities can be redeemed through demand, calculated as a weighted average. As a rule, the longer a fund’s weighted average maturity, the greater its interest rate risk. Money funds are required to maintain a weighted average maturity of no more than 60 days.
 
yield The income paid out by an investment, expressed as a percentage of the investments market value.

Marie Chandoha is President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. and the fund covered in this report.

 
Dear Shareholder,
 
As President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for allowing us to serve your investment needs, and for reading this important communication concerning the performance of the Schwab money market funds. Although the investment environment has been challenging, recent signs suggest the potential for improvement.
 
During the year ended December 31, 2011, geopolitical unrest, natural disasters, legislative gridlock in the U.S., S&P’s downgrade of long-term U.S. sovereign debt, the euro zone’s ongoing debt crisis, and a shifting outlook regarding economic prospects resulted in a frequently volatile investment environment. Amid the market turbulence, bonds generated solid returns and money market securities continued to help investors preserve their hard-earned capital. On the equity side, U.S. stocks finished mixed after a year that generally favored defensive shares, dividend-paying stocks, and some of the largest blue-chip names. Record corporate profits and historically appealing levels for financial metrics such as price-to-earnings ratios served as part of the backdrop for the stock market’s performance, as did a fourth-quarter rally. The Dow Jones Industrial Average returned 8.38%, outpacing the 2.11% return of the S&P 500 Index, and the -4.18% loss posted by the small-cap Russell 2000 Index.
 
Early year optimism that U.S. economic growth would reach self-sustaining levels ultimately met with disappointing results. Inflation-adjusted U.S. economic activity (real GDP) expanded at a lackluster 0.4% annual pace in the first quarter of 2011. Although growth accelerated to a 2.8% annualized rate in the fourth quarter (advance estimate), the year’s overall level of activity represented a deceleration from the 3.0% pace achieved in 2010. As a result, companies remained reluctant to add employees at a consistently meaningful pace and the unemployment rate hovered around 9.0% for most of 2011, before trending lower during the final months of the year.
 
Attempting to right the unsettled economic landscape, the Federal Reserve (the Fed) implemented a variety of conventional and unconventional monetary operations. On the more conventional side, the Fed kept the federal funds rate target at a historically low 0-0.25%, where rates have held since they were first cut to that level in December 2008. Less conventionally, the Fed completed a second round of quantitative easing in June, purchasing approximately $600 billion of long-term Treasuries over roughly a 10-month period. This effort was designed to spark a faster rate of expansion by keeping long-term interest rates low. In late September, the Fed began “Operation Twist,” an attempt to further reduce long-term interest rates and help the still-troubled U.S. housing sector, while essentially holding short-term rates steady.
 
This collective backdrop paved the way for solid returns by fixed-income securities. U.S. Treasuries turned in particularly strong performances, thanks in part to intermittent bouts of investors looking for a safe haven. The U.S. Treasury sector of the Barclays Aggregate U.S. Bond Index returned 9.81% for the 12 months, the U.S. Agency sector returned 4.82%, and the Corporate sector returned 8.15%, while the longer maturities in each of these categories easily outperformed shorter maturities. The rally also pushed down the yield of the 10-year Treasury bond to only 1.89% by

the end of 2011, marking the first time in more than three decades that the yield on the benchmark bond finished a calendar year below 2.0%.
 
Money market instruments continued to offer a compelling means of achieving capital preservation for investors, even while posting near-zero returns. The historically low interest rate environment and periodic flights to safety drove up demand for short-term, highly liquid investments, a process that further reduced the already low yields on money market securities.
 
Thank you for investing in the Schwab money market funds. Please review the following pages for details about the fund’s characteristics, investment performance, and objectives.
 
We encourage you to review your investment portfolio regularly to make sure it meets your current financial plan. For answers to questions you may have or to consult our website for more information, please visit www.schwabfunds.com. We are also happy to hear from you at 1-800-435-4000.
 
Sincerely,

To pursue its goal, the fund invests in high-quality short-term money market investments issued by U.S. and foreign issuers. Examples of these securities include commercial paper, certificates of deposit, repurchase agreements, variable-rate debt securities, and obligations issued by the U.S. government, its agencies, or instrumentalities. Since December 2008, when the Federal Reserve (the Fed) first cut short-term interest rates to present-day levels, yields on money market securities have remained historically low. This trend continued during the report period.
 
As a result, the fund’s investment adviser and its affiliates voluntarily waived certain fees or expenses for the 12 months ended December 31, 2011, to help the fund maintain a positive net yield.* For more information about the fund’s yield and other important characteristics, please review the charts and footnotes that follow this discussion.
 
Market Highlights. Robust demand combined with limited supply continued to drive yields on taxable money market securities lower. Concern that the euro zone’s sovereign debt crisis could spread from Greece, Ireland, and Portugal to larger European countries featured prominently in that mix. Additionally, the downgrade of long-term U.S. debt by Standard & Poor’s heightened investors’ appetite for money market instruments, sparking a flight to quality. Amid that backdrop, investors turned to regions such as Canada and Australia as well, pressuring yields lower in these regions in the process.
 
From a supply standpoint, issuance declined across several money market sectors, including commercial paper, Treasury bills, and government agency discount notes. The Fed concluded its Supplemental Financing Program as the government ran up against budgetary constraints, removing approximately $200 billion of Treasury bills from the market. Issuance of government agency discount notes from the Federal Home Loan Bank System declined sharply as well.
 
Positioning and Strategies. The fund’s investment adviser focused on stability of capital and ensured robust liquidity amid the volatile market backdrop, and strategically managed the portfolio based upon developing conditions. For example, the fund’s weighted average maturity (WAM) was proactively reduced from roughly 45 days early in the second half of 2011 to approximately 39 days by mid-September, as the euro zone’s debt crisis again took center stage. In addition, the fund’s holdings in Spain and Italy were eliminated as the crisis began to spread. Exposure to some European banks, most specifically those in the euro zone, were also selectively pared back. As a result of these changes and in an effort to maintain a stable net asset value, the adviser reduced the fund’s WAM to 31 days by the end of 2011.

An investment in a money fund is neither insured nor guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or any other government agency. Although money funds seek to preserve the value of your investment at $1 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in a money fund.
 
Portfolio holdings may have changed since the report date.
 
* The 7-day average yield for the Sweep Shares and Premier Sweep Shares was 0.01% throughout the entire period.
** Subject to the eligibility terms and conditions of your Schwab account agreement.
1 Please see prospectus for further detail and eligibility requirements.
2 Yield reflects the effect of the fund’s agreement with the investment adviser and its affiliates to limit each share class’s total annual operating expenses to certain levels (contractual expense limitation). In addition, the investment adviser and its affiliates have voluntarily waived expenses in excess of the contractual expense limitation to maintain a positive net yield for certain share classes of the fund (voluntary expense waiver). Without the contractual expense limitation and the voluntary expense waiver, the fund’s yield would have been lower. For additional details, see financial note 4.
3 Yield does not reflect the effect of the contractual expense limitation, but does reflect the effect of the voluntary expense waiver. The voluntary expense waiver added 0.40% and 0.33% to the seven-day yields of the Sweep Shares and Premier Sweep Shares, respectively.

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
 
 Examples for a $1,000 Investment
 
As a fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: transaction costs, such as redemption fees; and, ongoing costs, such as management fees, transfer agent and shareholder services fees, and other fund expenses.
 
The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare this cost with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for six months beginning July 1, 2011 and held through December 31, 2011.
 
Actual Return lines in the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value ¸ $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund or share class under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period.”
 
Hypothetical Return lines in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a fund’s or share class’ actual expense ratio and an assumed return of 5% per year before expenses. Because the return used is not an actual return, it may not be used to estimate the actual ending account value or expenses you paid for the period.
 
You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
 
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only, and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees. If these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

1. Business Structure of the Fund:
 
Schwab Advisor Cash Reserves is a series of The Charles Schwab Family of Funds (the “trust”), a no-load, open-end management investment company. The trust is organized as a Massachusetts business trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The list below shows all the funds in the trust as of the end of the period, including the fund discussed in this report, which is highlighted:

Schwab Investor Money Fund
       
 
 
Schwab Advisor Cash Reserves offers two share classes: Sweep Shares and Premier Sweep Shares. Shares of each class represent interest in the same portfolio, but each class has different expenses and investment minimums.
 
Shares are bought and sold at closing net asset value (“NAV”), which is the price for all outstanding shares of the fund. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the Board of Trustees may authorize the issuance of as many shares as necessary.
 
The fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, the fund may also keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities law.
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
 
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the fund uses in its preparation of financial statements. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
 
(a) Security Valuation:
 
Securities in the fund are valued at amortized cost (which approximates market value) as permitted in accordance with Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act. In the event that security valuations do not approximate market value, securities may be valued as determined in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees.
 
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the fund discloses the fair value of its investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). If the fund determines that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to estimate fair value.
 
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
 
  •  Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities — Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and whose values are therefore classified as Level 1 prices, include active listed equities. The fund does not adjust the quoted prices for such investments, even in situations where the fund holds a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted price.
 
  •  Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) — Investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but whose values are based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or valuations provided by alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified as Level 2 prices. These generally include U.S. government and sovereign obligations, most government agency securities, investment-grade corporate bonds, certain mortgage products, less liquid listed equities, and state, municipal and provincial obligations. As investments whose values are classified as Level 2 prices include positions

Financial Notes (continued)
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
  that are not traded in active markets and/or are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations may be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, which are generally based on available market information. Securities held by money funds operating under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act are valued at amortized cost which approximates current market value and are considered to be valued using Level 2 inputs.
 
  •  Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumption in determining the fair value of investments) — Investments whose values are classified as Level 3 prices have significant unobservable inputs, as they may trade infrequently or not at all. When observable prices are not available for these securities, the fund uses one or more valuation techniques for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used by the fund in estimating the value of Level 3 prices may include the original transaction price, quoted prices for similar securities or assets in active markets, completed or pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows. Level 3 prices may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by the fund in the absence of market information. Assumptions used by the fund due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the fund’s results of operations.
 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. At December 31, 2011, all of the fund’s investment securities were classified as Level 2. The breakdown of the fund’s investments into major categories is disclosed on the portfolio holdings.
 
The fund’s policy is to recognize transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 as of the beginning of the fiscal year. There were no significant transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 for the period ended December 31, 2011.
 
(b) Accounting Policies for certain Portfolio Investments (if held):
 
Repurchase Agreements: In a repurchase agreement, a fund buys a security from another party (usually a financial institution) with the agreement that it be sold back in the future. Repurchase agreements subject a fund to counterparty risk, meaning that the fund could lose money if the other party fails to perform under the terms of the agreement. The fund mitigates this risk by ensuring that a fund’s repurchase agreements are collateralized by cash, U.S. government securities, fixed income securities, equity securities or other types of securities. All collateral is held by the fund’s custodian (or, with tri-party agreements, the agent’s bank) and is monitored daily to ensure that its market value is at least equal to the repurchase price under the agreement. Investments in repurchase agreements are also based on a review of the credit quality of the repurchase agreement counterparty.
 
Delayed-Delivery Transactions: The fund may buy securities at a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place after the customary settlement period for that type of security. The fund will assume the rights and risks of ownership at the time of purchase, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations. Typically, no interest will accrue to a fund until the security is delivered. The fund will earmark or segregate appropriate liquid assets to cover its delayed-delivery purchase obligations.
 
(c) Security Transactions:
 
Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains or losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved.
 
(d) Investment Income:
 
Interest income is recorded as it accrues. If a fund buys a debt security at a discount (less than face value) or a premium (more than face value), it amortizes the discount or premium from the current date up to maturity. The fund then increases (in the case of discounts) or reduces (in the case of premiums) the income it records from the security. If the security is callable (meaning that the issuer has the option to pay it off before its maturity date), then the fund amortizes the premium to the security’s call date and price, rather than the maturity date and price.
 
(e) Expenses:
 
Expenses that are specific to a fund are charged directly to the fund. Expenses that are common to all funds within the trust generally are allocated among the funds in proportion to their average daily net assets.

Financial Notes (continued)
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
For funds offering multiple share classes, the net investment income, other than class specific expenses, and the realized and unrealized gains or losses, are allocated daily to each class in proportion to their average daily net assets.
 
(f) Distributions to Shareholders:
 
The fund declares distributions from net investment income, if any, every day it is open for business. These distributions, which are substantially equal to a fund’s net investment income for that day, are paid out to shareholders once a month. The fund declares distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, once a year.
 
(g) Custody Credit:
 
The fund has an arrangement with its custodian bank, State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”), under which the fund receives a credit for its uninvested cash balance to offset its custody fees and accounting fees. The credit amounts, if any, are disclosed in the Statement of Operations as a reduction to the fund’s operating expenses.
 
(h) Accounting Estimates:
 
The accounting policies described in this report conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It’s possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates and these differences may be material.
 
(i) Federal Income Taxes:
 
The fund intends to meet federal income and excise tax requirements for regulated investment companies. Accordingly, the fund distributes substantially all of its net investment income and realized net capital gains, if any, to its respective shareholders each year. As long as a fund meets the tax requirements, it is not required to pay federal income tax.
 
(j) Indemnification:
 
Under the fund’s organizational documents, the officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the fund. In addition, in the normal course of business the fund enters into contracts with its vendors and others that provide general indemnifications. The fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the fund. However, based on experience, the fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.
 
(k) New Accounting Pronouncements:
 
In April 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) related to accounting for repurchase agreements and similar agreements that both entitle and obligate a transferor to repurchase or redeem financial assets before their maturity. The ASU modifies the criteria for determining effective control of transferred assets and as a result certain agreements may now be accounted for as secured borrowings. The ASU is effective prospectively for new and existing transfers that are modified in the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011.
 
In May 2011, the FASB issued an update to requirements relating to “Fair Value Measurement which represents amendments to achieve common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in US GAAP and IFRS.” The amendments include (i) those that clarify the FASB’s intent about the application of existing fair value measurement and disclosure requirements and (ii) those that change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. The amendments that change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or disclosing information about fair value measurements relate to (i) measuring the fair value of the financial instruments that are managed within a portfolio; (ii) application of premium and discount in a fair value measurement; and (iii) additional disclosures about fair value measurements. The update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 with early adoption prohibited.
 
At this time, management is evaluating the implications of these changes and their impact on the financial statements.

3. Risk Factors:
 
An investment in the fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the fund seeks to preserve the value of a shareholder’s investment at $1 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the fund.
 
Interest rates rise and fall over time. As with any investment whose yield reflects current interest rates, the fund’s yield will change over time. During periods when interest rates are low, the fund’s yield (and total return) also will be low. In addition, to the extent the fund makes any reimbursement payments to the investment adviser and/or its affiliates, the fund’s yield would be lower.
 
The fund is subject to the risk that a decline in the credit quality of a portfolio investment could cause the fund to lose money or underperform. The fund could lose money if the issuer of a portfolio investment fails to make timely principal or interest payments or if a guarantor, liquidity provider or counterparty of a portfolio investment fails to otherwise honor its obligations. Even though the fund’s investments in repurchase agreements are collateralized at all times, there is some risk to the fund if the other party should default on its obligations and the fund is delayed or prevented from recovering or disposing of the collateral. The negative perceptions of the ability of an issuer, guarantor, liquidity provider or counterparty to make payments or otherwise honor its obligations, as applicable, could also cause the price of that investment to decline. The credit quality of a fund’s portfolio holdings can change rapidly in certain market environments and any downgrade or default on the part of a single portfolio investment could cause the fund’s share price or yield to fall.
 
Many of the U.S. government securities that the fund invests in are not backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government, which means they are neither issued nor guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. There can be no assurance that the U.S. government will provide financial support to securities of its agencies and instrumentalities if it is not obligated to do so under law. Also, any government guarantees on securities a fund owns do not extend to the shares of the fund itself.
 
The fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers or securities with credit or liquidity enhancements provided by foreign entities may involve certain risks that are greater than those associated with investments in securities of U.S. issuers or securities with credit or liquidity enhancements provided by U.S. entities. These include risks of adverse changes in foreign economic, political, regulatory and other conditions; differing accounting, auditing, financial reporting and legal standards and practices; differing securities market structures; and higher transaction costs. In addition, sovereign risk, or the risk that a government may become unwilling or unable to meet its loan obligations or guarantees, could increase the credit risk of financial institutions connected to that particular country.
 
Any actively managed mutual fund is subject to the risk that its investment adviser will make poor security selections. The fund’s investment adviser applies its own investment techniques and risk analyses in making investment decisions for the fund, but there can be no guarantee that they will produce the desired results. The investment adviser’s maturity decisions will also affect the fund’s yield, and in unusual circumstances potentially could affect its share price. To the extent that the investment adviser anticipates interest rate trends imprecisely, the fund’s yield at times could lag those of other money market funds.
 
Liquidity risk exists when particular investments are difficult to purchase or sell. The market for certain investments may become illiquid due to specific adverse changes in the conditions of a particular issuer or under adverse market or economic conditions independent of the issuer. The fund’s investments in illiquid securities may reduce the returns of the fund because it may be unable to sell the illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price. Further, transactions in illiquid securities may entail transaction costs that are higher than those for transactions in liquid securities.
 
The fund may experience periods of heavy redemptions that could cause the fund to liquidate its assets at inopportune times or at a loss or depressed value, particularly during periods of declining or illiquid markets. Redemptions by a few large investors in the fund may have a significant adverse effect on the fund’s ability to maintain a stable $1.00 share price. In the event any money market fund fails to maintain a stable net asset value, other money market funds, including the fund, could face a market-wide risk of increased redemption pressures, potentially jeopardizing the stability of their $1.00 share prices.
 
The fund is not designed to offer capital appreciation. In exchange for their emphasis on stability and liquidity, money market investments may offer lower long-term performance than stock or bond investments.
 
Please refer to the fund’s prospectus for a more complete description of the principal risks of investing in the fund.

4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions:
 
Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (“CSIM” or the “investment adviser”), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Charles Schwab Corporation, serves as the fund’s investment adviser and administrator pursuant to an Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement (“Advisory Agreement”) between CSIM and the trust.
 
For its advisory and administrative services to the fund, CSIM is entitled to receive an annual fee, payable monthly, based on a percentage of the fund’s average daily net assets as follows:
 
         
Average Daily Net Assets
   
 
First $1 billion
    0.35%  
More than $1 billion but not exceeding $10 billion
    0.32%  
More than $10 billion but not exceeding $20 billion
    0.30%  
More than $20 billion but not exceeding $40 billion
    0.27%  
Over $40 billion
    0.25%  
 
The Board of Trustees has adopted a Shareholder Servicing and Sweep Administration Plan (the “Plan”) on behalf of the fund. The Plan enables the fund to bear expenses relating to the provision by service providers, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (a broker-dealer affiliate of CSIM, “Schwab”), of certain account maintenance, customer liaison and shareholder services to the current shareholders of the fund. Schwab serves as the fund’s paying agent under the Plan for making payments of the shareholder service fee due to the service providers (other than Schwab) under the Plan. All shareholder service fees paid by the fund to Schwab in its capacity as the fund’s paying agent will be passed through to the service providers, and Schwab will not retain any portion of such fees. The Plan also enables the fund to pay Schwab for certain sweep administration services, such as processing of automatic purchases and redemptions it provides to fund shareholders invested in the fund.
 
Pursuant to the Plan, the fund’s shares are subject to an annual shareholder servicing fee of up to 0.25%. The shareholder servicing fee paid to a particular service provider is made pursuant to its written agreement with Schwab (or, in the case of payments made to Schwab, pursuant to Schwab’s written agreement with the fund), and the fund will pay no more than 0.25% of the average annual daily net asset value of the fund shares owned by shareholders holding shares through Schwab. Pursuant to the Plan, the fund’s shares are subject to an annual sweep administration fee of up to 0.15%. The sweep administration fee paid to Schwab is based on the average daily net asset value of the fund shares owned by shareholders holding shares through Schwab. Payments under the Plan are made as described above regardless of Schwab’s or the service provider’s actual cost of providing the services. If the cost of providing the services under the Plan is less than the payment received, the unexpended portion of the fees may be retained as profit by Schwab or the service provider.
 
Contractual Expense Limitation
 
Although these agreements specify certain fees for these services, CSIM and Schwab have made an additional agreement (“expense limitation”) with the fund, for so long as CSIM serves as the investment adviser to the fund, which may only be amended or terminated with the approval of the fund’s Board of Trustees, to limit the total annual fund operating expenses, excluding interest, taxes and certain non-routine expenses as follows:
 
         
Sweep Shares
    0.66%  
Premier Sweep Shares
    0.59%  
 
In addition, effective January 1, 2011 through December 31, 2011, CSIM and Schwab agreed to waive an additional amount of the fund’s expenses equal to 0.035% of the fund’s average daily net assets.
 
Voluntary Expense Waiver/Reimbursement
 
In addition to the contractual expense limitation agreements noted above, Schwab and the investment adviser also may waive and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to maintain a positive net yield for each share class of the fund. Schwab and the investment adviser may recapture from the fund any of these expenses or fees they have waived and/or reimbursed until the third anniversary of the end of the fiscal year in which such waiver and/or reimbursement occurs, subject to certain limitations. These reimbursement payments by the fund to Schwab and/or the investment adviser are considered “non-routine expenses” and are not subject to any net operating expense limitations in effect at the time of such payment. This recapture could

    $13,137,784       $30,275,610       $44,182,521       $87,595,915  
 
The fund may engage in direct transactions with certain other Schwab Funds when practical. When one fund is seeking to sell a security that another is seeking to buy, an interfund transaction can allow both funds to benefit by reducing transaction costs. This practice is limited to funds that share the same investment adviser, trustees and/or officers. For the period ended December 31, 2011, the fund’s aggregate security transactions with other Schwab Funds were $147,000,000.
 
Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the fund may enter into interfund borrowing and lending transactions with other Schwab Funds. All loans are for temporary or emergency purposes only. The interest rate charged on the loan is the average of the overnight repurchase agreement rate and the short-term bank loan rate. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review of the Board of Trustees of the Schwab Funds. The fund had no interfund borrowing or lending activity during the period.
 
On September 14, 2010, The Charles Schwab Corporation made a payment of $25,575,062 to Schwab Advisor Cash Reserves to cover the net remaining losses recognized as a result of its investment in a single structured investment vehicle that defaulted in 2008. This payment represented 0.1% of the fund’s net assets on that date.
 
5. Transfer Agent Services:
 
Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. (“BFDS”) provides transfer agent services for the fund.
 
6. Board of Trustees:
 
Trustees may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The trust did not pay any of these interested persons for their services as trustees, but it did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted in the fund’s Statement of Operations.
 
7. Borrowing from Banks:
 
The fund has access to custodian overdraft facilities, a committed line of credit of $150 million with State Street Bank and Trust (“State Street”), an uncommitted line of credit of $100 million with Bank of America, N.A. and an uncommitted line of credit of $50 million with Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. The fund pays interest on the amount it borrows at rates that are negotiated periodically. The fund also pays an annual fee to State Street for the committed line of credit.
 
There were no borrowings from the lines of credit by the fund during the period. However, the fund may have utilized its overdraft facility and incurred interest expense, which is disclosed in the Statement of Operations, if any. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.
 
8. Federal Income Taxes:
 
As of December 31, 2011, the fund had no distributable earnings on a tax basis.
 
Capital loss carryforwards may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. As of December 31, 2011, the fund had capital loss carryforwards of $1,402,713 available to offset future net capital gains before the expiration date of December 31, 2017 and $616 with no expiration.

Financial Notes (continued)
 
8. Federal Income Taxes (continued):
 
For tax purposes, realized net capital losses incurred after October 31 may be deferred and treated as occurring on the first day of the following year. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the fund had no capital losses deferred and no capital losses utilized.
 
The tax-basis components of distributions paid during the current and prior fiscal years were:
 
         
Current period distributions
Ordinary income
    $2,054,071  
 
Prior period distributions
Ordinary income
    $1,997,903  
 
Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income and net realized gains determined on a tax basis, which may differ from net investment income and net realized gains for financial reporting purposes; there were no such differences in the current year. The fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year in which the net investment income and net realized gains are recorded by the fund for financial reporting purposes. The fund may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.
 
Permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between capital account and other accounts as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. As of December 31, 2011, no such reclassifications were required.
 
As of December 31, 2011, management has reviewed the tax positions for open periods (for federal purposes, three years from the date of filing and for state purposes, four years from the date of filing) as applicable to the fund, and has determined that no provision for income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements. The fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period ended December 31, 2011, the fund did not incur any interest or penalties.
 
On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (“the Act”) was signed by the President. The Act is the first major piece of legislation affecting Regulated Investment Companies (“RICs”) since 1986 and it modernizes several of the federal income and excise tax provisions related to RICs.
 
Certain of the enacted provisions include:
 
Post-enactment capital losses may now be carried forward indefinitely, but must retain the character of the original loss. Under pre-enactment law, capital losses could be carried forward for eight years, and carried forward as short-term capital, irrespective of the character of the original loss. The Act contains simplification provisions, which are aimed at preventing disqualification of a RIC for “inadvertent” failures of the asset diversification and/or qualifying income tests. Additionally, the Act exempts RICs from the preferential dividend rule, and repeals the 60-day designation requirement for certain types of pay-through income and gains.
 
Finally, the Act contains several provisions aimed at preserving the character of distributions made by a fiscal year RIC during the portion of its taxable year ending after October 31 or December 31, reducing the circumstances under which a RIC might be required to file amended Forms 1099 to restate previously reported distributions.
 
Except for the simplification provisions related to RIC qualification, the Act is effective for taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010. The provisions related to RIC qualification are effective for taxable years for which the extended due date of the tax return is after December 22, 2010.
 
9. Subsequent Events:
 
Management has determined there are no subsequent events or transactions through the date the financial statements were issued that would have materially impacted the financial statements as presented.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
 
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of:
Schwab Advisor Cash Reserves
 
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio holdings, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Schwab Advisor Cash Reserves (one of the portfolios constituting The Charles Schwab Family of Funds, hereafter referred to as the “Fund”) at December 31, 2011, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2011 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Glossary
 
 
agency discount notes Notes issued by federal agencies—known as Government Sponsored Enterprises, or GSEs—at a discount to their value at maturity. An agency discount note is a short-term investment alternative offering a high degree of credit quality.
 
asset-backed commercial paper A short-term investment that is typically issued by a bank or other financial institution. The notes represent an interest in financial assets such as trade receivables, credit card receivables, auto receivables, etc. and are generally used for the short-term financing needs of companies.
 
Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index A broad-based benchmark that measures the investment grade, U.S. dollar-denominated, fixed-rate taxable bond market, including Treasuries, government-related and corporate securities, mortgage-back securities (agency fixed-rate and hybrid ARM passthroughs), asset-backed securities, and commercial mortgage-backed securities.
 
Barclays Capital U.S. TIPS Index (Series-L) A rules-based, market value-weighted index that tracks inflation-protected securities issued by the U.S. Treasury that have at least one year remaining to maturity, are rated investment grade and have $250 million or more of outstanding face value.
 
capital gain, capital loss The difference between the amount paid for an investment and its value at a later time. If the investment has been sold, the capital gain or loss is considered a realized gain or loss. If the investment is still held, the gain or loss is still “on paper” and is considered unrealized.
 
commercial paper Promissory notes issued by banks, corporations and other entities to finance short-term credit needs. These securities generally are structured on a discounted basis but sometimes may be interest-bearing notes. Commercial paper, which may be unsecured, is subject to credit risk.
 
corporate note An unsecured debt security issued by a corporation that is subject to the credit risk of the issuer.
 
credit-enhanced securities Securities that are backed by the credit of an entity other than the issuer (such as a financial institution). Credit enhancements, which can equal up to 100% of the security’s value, are designed to help lower the risk of default on a security and may also make the security more liquid.
 
credit quality The capacity of an issuer to make its interest and principal payments. Federal regulations strictly regulate the credit quality of the securities a money market fund can buy.
 
credit ratings Debt issuers, including corporations, states and municipalities, may arrange with a recognized independent rating organization, such as Standard & Poor’s, Fitch, Inc. and Moody’s Investor Service, to rate their creditworthiness and/or the creditworthiness of their debt issues. For example, an issuer may obtain a long-term rating within the investment grade rating category, which is, from high to low, AAA, AA, A and BBB for Standard & Poor’s and Fitch, and Aaa, Aa, A and Baa for Moody’s.
 
credit risk The risk that a debt issuer may be unable to pay interest or repay principal to its debt holders.
 
dollar-weighted average maturity (DWAM) See weighted average maturity.
 
effective yield A measurement of a fund’s yield that assumes that all interest income is reinvested in additional shares of the fund.
 
expense ratio The amount that is taken from a mutual fund’s assets each year to cover the fund’s operating expenses. An expense ratio of 0.50% means that a fund’s expenses amount to half of one percent of its average net assets for the year.
 
face value The value of a bond, note, mortgage or other security as given on the certificate or instrument. Face value is also referred to as par value or nominal value.
 
illiquid securities Securities are generally considered illiquid if they cannot be disposed of promptly (typically within seven days) and in the ordinary course of business at approximately the amount at which a fund has valued the instruments.
 
interest Payments to holders of debt securities as compensation for loaning a security’s principal to the issuer.
 
liquidity-enhanced security The security’s structure includes a liquidity arrangement that requires an entity other than the issuer (such as a large financial institution) to provide funds to pay a tender under most circumstances. Liquidity enhancements are often used on variable-rate securities where the portfolio manager has an option to tender the securities for repayment within a specified time period (usually one day or one week) at any time prior to their final maturity.
 
maturity The date a debt security is scheduled to be “retired” and its principal amount repaid. The Maturity of an investment will generally reflect the security’s final maturity date unless the security’s structure includes a maturity-shortening provision such as an interest rate reset, demand feature or put feature (the “Effective Maturity Date”). For those securities with a maturity-shortening provision, including variable-rate demand securities, the Maturity is determined by using the Effective Maturity Date, as permitted by Rule 2a-7.
 
MSCI EAFE (Europe, Australasia, Far East) Index A free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets, excluding the US & Canada.
 
municipal securities Debt securities issued by a state, its counties, municipalities, authorities and other subdivisions, or the territories and possessions of the United States and the District of Columbia, including their subdivisions, agencies and instrumentalities and corporations. These securities may be issued to obtain money for various public purposes, including the construction of a wide range of public facilities such as airports, bridges, highways, housing, hospitals, mass transportation, public utilities, schools, streets, and water and sewer works.
 
net asset value per share (NAV) The value of one share of a mutual fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets, subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding. Money funds seek to maintain a steady NAV of $1.00.

section 3c7 securities Section 3c7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) exempts certain issuers from many regulatory requirements applicable to investment companies under the 1940 Act. An issuer whose outstanding securities are exclusively owned by “qualified purchasers” and who is not making or proposing to make a public offering of the securities may qualify for this exemption.
 
section 4(2)/144A securities Securities exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. These securities may be sold only to qualified institutional buyers under Securities Act Rule 144A.
 
taxable-equivalent yield The yield an investor would need to get from a taxable investment in order to match the yield paid by a given tax-exempt investment, once the effect of all applicable taxes is taken into account. For example, if your tax rate were 25%, a tax-exempt investment paying 4.5% would have a taxable-equivalent yield for you of 6.0% (4.5% ¸ [1 − 0.25%] = 6.0%).
 
Tier 1, Tier 2 Tier 1 is the highest category of credit quality, Tier 2 the second highest. A security’s tier can be established either by an independent rating organization or by a determination of the investment adviser. Money market fund shares and U.S. government securities are automatically considered Tier 1 securities. The Schwab Money Funds only purchase securities which are considered to be Tier 1; however, they may hold Tier 2 securities as a result of a downgrade of a portfolio security.
 
total return The percentage that an investor would have earned or lost on an investment in the fund assuming dividends and distributions were reinvested.
 
weighted average life (WAL) For money market mutual funds as per rule 2a-7, the weighted average life calculation takes into account either the final maturity date for each security held in the portfolio or, when relevant, the date of the next demand feature (when the fund is scheduled to receive payment of principal and interest after a demand). Money funds are required to maintain a weighted average life of no more than 120 days. Weighted average life for all Schwab money market funds is available in each fund’s monthly schedule of portfolio holdings at www.schwabfunds.com/prospectus and also available in each fund’s Form N-MFP on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov 60 days after the end of the month to which the information pertains.
 
weighted average maturity (WAM) For money market mutual funds as per rule 2a-7, the maturity date or Effective Maturity Date (see definition of maturity) of all the debt securities in its portfolio, or the date the interest rate on those securities is reset, or the date those securities can be redeemed through demand, calculated as a weighted average. As a rule, the longer a fund’s weighted average maturity, the greater its interest rate risk. Money funds are required to maintain a weighted average maturity of no more than 60 days.
 
yield The income paid out by an investment, expressed as a percentage of the investments market value.

From the President
 

CHANDOHA PHOTO
 
Marie Chandoha is President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. and the funds covered in this report.

 
Dear Shareholder,
 
As President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for allowing us to serve your investment needs, and for reading this important communication concerning the performance of the Schwab money market funds. Although the investment environment has been challenging, recent signs suggest the potential for improvement.
 
During the year ended December 31, 2011, geopolitical unrest, natural disasters, legislative gridlock in the U.S., S&P’s downgrade of long-term U.S. sovereign debt, the euro zone’s ongoing debt crisis, and a shifting outlook regarding economic prospects resulted in a frequently volatile investment environment. Amid the market turbulence, bonds generated solid returns and money market securities continued to help investors preserve their hard-earned capital. On the equity side, U.S. stocks finished mixed after a year that generally favored defensive shares, dividend-paying stocks, and some of the largest blue-chip names. Record corporate profits and historically appealing levels for financial metrics such as price-to-earnings ratios served as part of the backdrop for the stock market’s performance, as did a fourth-quarter rally. The Dow Jones Industrial Average returned 8.38%, outpacing the 2.11% return of the S&P 500 Index, and the -4.18% loss posted by the small-cap Russell 2000 Index.
 
Early year optimism that U.S. economic growth would reach self-sustaining levels ultimately met with disappointing results. Inflation-adjusted U.S. economic activity (real GDP) expanded at a lackluster 0.4% annual pace in the first quarter of 2011. Although growth accelerated to a 2.8% annualized rate in the fourth quarter (advance estimate), the year’s overall level of activity represented a deceleration from the 3.0% pace achieved in 2010. As a result, companies remained reluctant to add employees at a consistently meaningful pace and the unemployment rate hovered around 9.0% for most of 2011, before trending lower during the final months of the year.
 
Attempting to right the unsettled economic landscape, the Federal Reserve (the Fed) implemented a variety of conventional and unconventional monetary operations. On the more conventional side, the Fed kept the federal funds rate target at a historically low 0-0.25%, where rates have held since they were first cut to that level in December 2008. Less conventionally, the Fed completed a second round of quantitative easing in June, purchasing approximately $600 billion of long-term Treasuries over roughly a 10-month period. This effort was designed to spark a faster rate of expansion by keeping long-term interest rates low. In late September, the Fed began “Operation Twist,” an attempt to further reduce long-term interest rates and help the still-troubled U.S. housing sector, while essentially holding short-term rates steady.
 
This collective backdrop paved the way for solid returns by fixed-income securities. U.S. Treasuries turned in particularly strong performances, thanks in part to intermittent bouts of investors looking for a safe haven. The U.S. Treasury sector of the Barclays Aggregate U.S. Bond Index returned 9.81% for the 12 months, the U.S. Agency sector returned 4.82%, and the Corporate sector returned 8.15%, while the longer maturities in each of these categories easily outperformed shorter maturities. The rally also pushed down the yield of the 10-year Treasury bond to only 1.89% by

the end of 2011, marking the first time in more than three decades that the yield on the benchmark bond finished a calendar year below 2.0%.
 
Money market instruments continued to offer a compelling means of achieving capital preservation for investors, even while posting near-zero returns. The historically low interest rate environment and periodic flights to safety drove up demand for short-term, highly liquid investments, a process that further reduced the already low yields on money market securities.
 
Thank you for investing in the Schwab money market funds. Please review the following pages for details about each fund’s characteristics, investment performance, and objectives.

Schwab Government Money Fund™
 
 
The Schwab Government Money Fund (the fund) seeks the highest current income consistent with stability of capital and liquidity. To pursue its goal, the fund principally invests in U.S. government securities, such as U.S. Treasury bills and notes, government agency discount notes, and repurchase agreements. Since December 2008, when the Federal Reserve (the Fed) first cut short-term interest rates to present-day levels, yields on money market securities have remained historically low. This trend continued during the report period.
 
As a result, the fund’s investment adviser and its affiliates voluntarily waived certain fees or expenses for the 12 months ended December 31, 2011, to help the fund maintain a positive net yield.* For more information about the fund’s yield and other important characteristics, please review the charts and footnotes that follow this discussion.
 
Market Highlights. Robust demand combined with limited supply continued to drive yields on taxable money market securities lower. Concern that the euro zone’s sovereign debt crisis could spread from Greece, Ireland, and Portugal to larger European countries featured prominently in that mix. Although the crisis remains unresolved and very politicized, European leaders are taking additional steps to stem the crisis.
 
Additionally, the downgrade of long-term U.S. debt by Standard & Poor’s heightened investors’ appetite for money market instruments, sparking a flight to quality that caused investors to flock to U.S. Treasuries. Amid that backdrop, investors turned to regions such as Canada and Australia as well, pressuring yields lower in these regions in the process.
 
From a supply standpoint, issuance declined across several money market sectors, including commercial paper, Treasury bills, and government agency discount notes. The Fed concluded its Supplemental Financing Program as the government ran up against budgetary constraints, removing approximately $200 billion of Treasury bills from the market. Issuance of government agency discount notes from the Federal Home Loan Bank System declined sharply as well.
 
Positioning and Strategies. The fund’s investment adviser focused on stability of capital and ensured liquidity amid the volatile market backdrop, and strategically managed the portfolio based upon developing conditions. To increase liquidity, the fund’s weighted average maturity (WAM) was shortened from roughly 45 days in early June to only 40 days by the end of July, as a resolution to the U.S. Government’s debt ceiling crisis was unclear. By late August, the debt ceiling had been raised, so the fund’s WAM was extended to capture incremental income for the fund, and finished 2011 at 45 days.

2 Yield reflects the effect of the fund’s agreement with the investment adviser and its affiliates to limit each share class’s total annual operating expenses to certain levels (contractual expense limitation). In addition, the investment adviser and its affiliates have voluntarily waived expenses in excess of the contractual expense limitation to maintain a positive net yield for the fund (voluntary expense waiver). Without the contractual expense limitation and the voluntary expense waiver, the fund’s yield would have been lower. For additional details, see financial note 4.
3 Yield does not reflect the effect of the contractual expense limitation, but does reflect the effect of the voluntary expense waiver. The voluntary expense waiver added 0.57% to the seven-day yield.

Schwab U.S. Treasury Money Fund™
 
 
The Schwab U.S. Treasury Money Fund (the fund) seeks the highest current income consistent with stability of capital and liquidity. To pursue its goal, the fund typically invests in securities backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, and under normal circumstances, holds at least 80% of its net assets in U.S. Treasury securities. Since December 2008, when the Federal Reserve (the Fed) first cut short-term interest rates to present-day levels, yields on money market securities have remained historically low. This trend continued during the report period.
 
As a result, the fund’s investment adviser and its affiliates voluntarily waived certain fees or expenses for the 12 months ended December 31, 2011, to help the fund maintain a non-negative net yield.* In addition, due to the historically high demand and diminished supply of short-term Treasuries, the fund was closed to new investors on September 26. For more information about the fund’s yield and other important characteristics, please review the charts and footnotes that follow this discussion.
 
Market Highlights. Robust demand combined with limited supply continued to drive yields on taxable money market securities lower. Concern that the euro zone’s sovereign debt crisis could spread from Greece, Ireland, and Portugal to larger European countries featured prominently in that mix. Although the crisis remains unresolved and very politicized, European leaders are taking additional steps to stem the crisis.
 
Additionally, the downgrade of long-term U.S. debt by Standard & Poor’s heightened investors’ appetite for money market instruments, sparking a flight to quality that caused investors to flock to U.S. Treasuries.

The Fed concluded its Supplemental Financing Program as the government ran up against budgetary constraints, removing approximately $200 billion of Treasury bills from the market. Issuance of government agency discount notes from the Federal Home Loan Bank System declined sharply as well.
 
Positioning and Strategies. The fund’s investment adviser focused on stability of capital and ensured liquidity amid the volatile market backdrop, and strategically managed the portfolio based upon developing conditions. To increase liquidity, the fund’s weighted average maturity (WAM) was proactively reduced from roughly 46 days at start of July to only 33 days by the end of that month, as a resolution to the U.S. Government’s debt ceiling crisis was unclear. By late August, the U.S. debt-ceiling had been raised, so the fund’s WAM was extended to capture additional income for the fund in the historically low yield environment. At the end of 2011, the fund’s WAM was 53 days.

2 Yield reflects the effect of the fund’s agreement with the investment adviser and its affiliates to limit each share class’s total annual operating expenses to certain levels (contractual expense limitation). In addition, the investment adviser and its affiliates have voluntarily waived expenses in excess of the contractual expense limitation to maintain a non-negative net yield for the fund (voluntary expense waiver). Without the contractual expense limitation and the voluntary expense waiver, the fund’s yield would have been lower. For additional details, see financial note 4.
3 Yield does not reflect the effect of the contractual expense limitation, but does reflect the effect of the voluntary expense waiver. The voluntary expense waiver added 0.54% to the seven-day yield.

Schwab Value Advantage Money Fund®
 
 
The Schwab Value Advantage Money Fund (the fund) seeks the highest current income consistent with stability of capital and liquidity. To pursue its goal, the fund invests in high-quality short-term money market investments issued by U.S. and foreign issuers. Examples of these securities include commercial paper, certificates of deposit, repurchase agreements, variable-rate debt securities, and obligations issued by the U.S. government, its agencies, or instrumentalities. Since December 2008, when the Federal Reserve (the Fed) first cut short-term interest rates to present-day levels, yields on money market securities have remained historically low. This trend continued during the report period.
 
As a result, the fund’s investment adviser and its affiliates voluntarily waived certain fees or expenses for the 12 months ended December 31, 2011, to help the fund maintain a positive net yield.* For more information about the fund’s yield and other important characteristics, please review the charts and footnotes that follow this discussion.
 
Market Highlights. Robust demand combined with limited supply continued to drive yields on taxable money market securities lower. Concern that the euro zone’s sovereign debt crisis could spread from Greece, Ireland, and Portugal to larger European countries featured prominently in that mix. Additionally, the downgrade of long-term U.S. debt by Standard & Poor’s heightened investors’ appetite for money market instruments, sparking a flight to quality. Amid that backdrop, investors turned to regions such as Canada and Australia as well, pressuring yields lower in these regions in the process.
 
From a supply standpoint, issuance declined across several money market sectors, including commercial paper, Treasury bills, and government agency discount notes. The Fed concluded its Supplemental Financing Program as the government ran up against budgetary constraints, removing approximately $200 billion of Treasury bills from the market. Issuance of government agency discount notes from the Federal Home Loan Bank System declined sharply as well.
 
Positioning and Strategies. The fund’s investment adviser focused on stability of capital and ensured robust liquidity amid the volatile market backdrop, and strategically managed the portfolio based upon developing conditions. For example, the fund’s weighted average maturity (WAM) was proactively reduced from roughly 45 days early in the second half of 2011 to approximately 36 days by the end of September, as the euro zone’s debt crisis again took center stage. In addition, the fund’s holdings in Spain and Italy were eliminated as the crisis began to spread. Exposure to some European banks, most specifically those in the euro zone, were also selectively pared back. As a result of these changes and in an effort to maintain a stable net asset value, the adviser reduced the fund’s WAM to 33 days by the end of 2011.

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
 
 Examples for a $1,000 Investment
 
As a fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: transaction costs, such as redemption fees; and, ongoing costs, such as management fees, transfer agent and shareholder services fees, and other fund expenses.
 
The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare this cost with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for six months beginning July 1, 2011 and held through December 31, 2011.
 
Actual Return lines in the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value ¸ $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund or share class under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period.”
 
Hypothetical Return lines in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a fund’s or share class’ actual expense ratio and an assumed return of 5% per year before expenses. Because the return used is not an actual return, it may not be used to estimate the actual ending account value or expenses you paid for the period.
 
You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
 
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only, and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees. If these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Portfolio Holdings as of December 31, 2011
 
 
This section shows all the securities in the fund’s portfolio and their values as of the report date.
 
The fund files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarter of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. The fund’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be viewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C. Call 1-800-SEC-0330 for information on the operation of the Public Reference Room. The fund also files a complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC monthly on Form N-MFP which is available 60 days after the end of the month to which the information pertains. A monthly schedule of portfolio holdings is also available by visiting the fund’s website at www.schwabfunds.com/prospectus along with a link to the fund’s Form N-MFP filings on the SEC’s website.
 
For fixed rate obligations, the rate shown is the coupon rate (the rate established when the obligation was issued) and if the coupon rate is not available, the effective yield at the time of purchase is shown. For variable-rate obligations, the rate shown is the interest rate as of the report date. If the security’s structure includes one of a number of maturity-shortening provisions set forth in Rule 2a-7, such as an interest rate reset, demand feature or put feature, the effective maturity date is disclosed. In addition, the second maturity date shown is either the date on which the principal amount must be paid or the date payment must be made pursuant to a demand feature. If the effective maturity and maturity date are the same, the date will appear in the maturity date column.

Portfolio Holdings as of December 31, 2011
 
 
This section shows all the securities in the fund’s portfolio and their values as of the report date.
 
The fund files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarter of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. The fund’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be viewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C. Call 1-800-SEC-0330 for information on the operation of the Public Reference Room. The fund also files a complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC monthly on Form N-MFP which is available 60 days after the end of the month to which the information pertains. A monthly schedule of portfolio holdings is also available by visiting the fund’s website at www.schwabfunds.com/prospectus along with a link to the fund’s Form N-MFP filings on the SEC’s website.
 
For fixed rate obligations, the rate shown is the coupon rate (the rate established when the obligation was issued) and if the coupon rate is not available, the effective yield at the time of purchase is shown. For variable-rate obligations, the rate shown is the interest rate as of the report date. If the security’s structure includes one of a number of maturity-shortening provisions set forth in Rule 2a-7, such as an interest rate reset, demand feature or put feature, the effective maturity date is disclosed. In addition, the second maturity date shown is either the date on which the principal amount must be paid or the date payment must be made pursuant to a demand feature. If the effective maturity and maturity date are the same, the date will appear in the maturity date column.

1. Business Structure of the Funds:
 
Each of the funds discussed in this report is a series of The Charles Schwab Family of Funds (the “trust”), a no-load, open-end management investment company. The trust is organized as a Massachusetts business trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The list below shows all the funds in the trust as of the end of the period, including the funds discussed in this report, which are highlighted:
 
         
 
The Charles Schwab Family of Funds (organized October 20, 1989)
 
Schwab Municipal Money Fund
   
Schwab Money Market Fund
 
Schwab AMT Tax-Free Money Fund
   
Schwab Government Money Fund
 
Schwab California Municipal Money Fund
   
Schwab U.S. Treasury Money Fund (closed to new investors)
 
Schwab California AMT Tax-Free Money Fund
   
Schwab Value Advantage Money Fund
 
Schwab New York AMT Tax-Free Money Fund
   
Schwab Advisor Cash Reserves
 
Schwab New Jersey AMT Tax-Free Money Fund
   
Schwab Cash Reserves
 
Schwab Pennsylvania Municipal Money Fund
   
Schwab Retirement Advantage Money Fund
 
Schwab Massachusetts AMT Tax-Free Money Fund
   
Schwab Investor Money Fund
       
 
 
Schwab Value Advantage Money Fund offers four share classes: Investor Shares, Select Shares, Institutional Shares and Institutional Prime Shares. Shares of each class represent interest in the same portfolio, but each class has different expenses and investment minimums. Schwab Government Money Fund and Schwab U.S. Treasury Money Fund each offer one share class.
 
Shares are bought and sold at closing net asset value (“NAV”), which is the price for all outstanding shares of the funds. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the Board of Trustees may authorize the issuance of as many shares as necessary.
 
Each fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, each fund may also keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities law.
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
 
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds use in their preparation of financial statements. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
 
(a) Security Valuation:
 
Securities in the funds are valued at amortized cost (which approximates market value) as permitted in accordance with Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act. In the event that security valuations do not approximate market value, securities may be valued as determined in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees.
 
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the funds disclose the fair value of their investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). If the funds determine that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to estimate fair value.
 
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
 
  •  Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities — Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and whose values are therefore classified as Level 1 prices, include active listed equities. The funds do not adjust the quoted prices for such investments, even in situations where the funds hold a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted prices.
 
  •  Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) — Investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but whose values are based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or valuations provided by alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified as Level 2 prices. These generally include U.S. government and sovereign obligations, most government agency securities, investment-grade corporate bonds, certain mortgage products, less liquid listed equities, and state, municipal and provincial obligations. As investments whose values are classified as Level 2 prices include positions

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
  that are not traded in active markets and/or are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations may be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, which are generally based on available market information. Securities held by money funds operating under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act are valued at amortized cost which approximates current market value and are considered to be valued using Level 2 inputs.
 
  •  Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) — Investments whose values are classified as Level 3 prices have significant unobservable inputs, as they may trade infrequently or not at all. When observable prices are not available for these securities, the funds use one or more valuation techniques for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used by the funds in estimating the value of Level 3 prices may include the original transaction price, quoted prices for similar securities or assets in active markets, completed or pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows. Level 3 prices may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by the funds in the absence of market information. Assumptions used by the funds due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the funds’ results of operations.
 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. At December 31, 2011, all of the funds’ investment securities were classified as Level 2. The breakdown of the funds’ investments into major categories is disclosed on the portfolio holdings.
 
The funds’ policy is to recognize transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 as of the beginning of the fiscal year. There were no significant transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 for the period ended December 31, 2011.
 
(b) Accounting Policies for certain Portfolio Investments (if held):
 
Repurchase Agreements: In a repurchase agreement, a fund buys a security from another party (usually a financial institution) with the agreement that it be sold back in the future. Repurchase agreements subject a fund to counterparty risk, meaning that the fund could lose money if the other party fails to perform under the terms of the agreement. The funds mitigate this risk by ensuring that the funds’ repurchase agreements are collateralized by cash, U.S. government securities, fixed income securities, equity securities or other types of securities. All collateral is held by the funds’ custodian (or, with multi-party agreements, the agent’s bank) and is monitored daily to ensure that its market value is at least equal to the repurchase price under the agreement. Investments in repurchase agreements are also based on a review of the credit quality of the repurchase agreement counterparty.
 
Delayed-Delivery Transactions: The funds may buy securities at a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place after the customary settlement period for that type of security. The funds will assume the rights and risks of ownership at the time of purchase, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations. Typically, no interest will accrue to a fund until the security is delivered. The funds will earmark or segregate appropriate liquid assets to cover its delayed-delivery purchase obligations.
 
(c) Security Transactions:
 
Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains or losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved.
 
(d) Investment Income:
 
Interest income is recorded as it accrues. If a fund buys a debt security at a discount (less than face value) or a premium (more than face value), it amortizes the discount or premium from the current date up to maturity. The fund then increases (in the case of discounts) or reduces (in the case of premiums) the income it records from the security. If the security is callable (meaning that the issuer has the option to pay it off before its maturity date), then the fund amortizes the premium to the security’s call date and price, rather than the maturity date and price.
 
(e) Expenses:
 
Expenses that are specific to a fund are charged directly to the fund. Expenses that are common to all funds within the trust generally are allocated among the funds in proportion to their average daily net assets.

 Schwab Taxable Money Funds
 

 
Financial Notes (continued)
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
For funds offering multiple share classes, the net investment income, other than class specific expenses, and the realized and unrealized gains or losses, are allocated daily to each class in proportion to their average daily net assets.
 
(f) Distributions to Shareholders:
 
The funds declare distributions from net investment income, if any, every day they are open for business. These distributions, which are substantially equal to the funds’ net investment income for that day, are paid out to shareholders once a month. The funds make distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, once a year.
 
(g) Custody Credit:
 
The funds have an arrangement with their custodian bank, State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”), under which the funds receive a credit for their uninvested cash balance to offset their custody fees and accounting fees. The credit amounts, if any, are disclosed in the Statement of Operations as a reduction to the funds’ operating expenses.
 
(h) Accounting Estimates:
 
The accounting policies described in this report conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It’s possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates and these differences may be material.
 
(i) Federal Income Taxes:
 
The funds intend to meet federal income and excise tax requirements for regulated investment companies. Accordingly, the funds distribute substantially all of their net investment income and realized net capital gains, if any, to their respective shareholders each year. As long as a fund meets the tax requirements, it is not required to pay federal income tax.
 
(j) Indemnification:
 
Under the funds’ organizational documents, the officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal course of business the funds enter into contracts with their vendors and others that provide general indemnifications. The funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the funds. However, based on experience, the funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
 
(k) New Accounting Pronouncements:
 
In April 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) related to accounting for repurchase agreements and similar agreements that both entitle and obligate a transferor to repurchase or redeem financial assets before their maturity. The ASU modifies the criteria for determining effective control of transferred assets and as a result certain agreements may now be accounted for as secured borrowings. The ASU is effective prospectively for new and existing transfers that are modified in the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011.
 
In May 2011, the FASB issued an update to requirements relating to “Fair Value Measurement which represents amendments to achieve common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in US GAAP and IFRS.” The amendments include (i) those that clarify the FASB’s intent about the application of existing fair value measurement and disclosure requirements and (ii) those that change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. The amendments that change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or disclosing information about fair value measurements relate to (i) measuring the fair value of the financial instruments that are managed within a portfolio; (ii) application of premium and discount in a fair value measurement; and (iii) additional disclosures about fair value measurements. The update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 with early adoption prohibited.
 
At this time, management is evaluating the implications of these changes and their impact on the financial statements.

3. Risk Factors:
 
An investment in a fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the funds seek to preserve the value of a shareholder’s investment at $1 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the funds.
 
Interest rates rise and fall over time. As with any investment whose yield reflects current interest rates, a fund’s yield will change over time. During periods when interest rates are low, a fund’s yield (and total return) also will be low. In addition, to the extent a fund makes any reimbursement payments to the investment adviser and/or its affiliates, the fund’s yield would be lower.
 
A fund is subject to the risk that a decline in the credit quality of a portfolio investment could cause the fund to lose money or underperform. A fund could lose money if the issuer of a portfolio investment fails to make timely principal or interest payments or if a guarantor, liquidity provider or counterparty of a portfolio investment fails to otherwise honor its obligations. Even though a fund’s investments in repurchase agreements are collateralized at all times, there is some risk to the fund if the other party should default on its obligations and the fund is delayed or prevented from recovering or disposing of the collateral. The negative perceptions of the ability of an issuer, guarantor, liquidity provider or counterparty to make payments or otherwise honor its obligations, as applicable, could also cause the price of that investment to decline. The credit quality of a fund’s portfolio holdings can change rapidly in certain market environments and any downgrade or default on the part of a single portfolio investment could cause the fund’s share price or yield to fall.
 
Many of the U.S. government securities that the funds invest in are not backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government, which means they are neither issued nor guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. There can be no assurance that the U.S. government will provide financial support to securities of its agencies and instrumentalities if it is not obligated to do so under law. Also, any government guarantees on securities a fund owns do not extend to the shares of the fund itself.
 
A fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers or securities with credit or liquidity enhancements provided by foreign entities may involve certain risks that are greater than those associated with investments in securities of U.S. issuers or securities with credit or liquidity enhancements provided by U.S. entities. These include risks of adverse changes in foreign economic, political, regulatory and other conditions; differing accounting, auditing, financial reporting and legal standards and practices; differing securities market structures; and higher transaction costs. In addition, sovereign risk, or the risk that a government may become unwilling or unable to meet its loan obligations or guarantees, could increase the credit risk of financial institutions connected to that particular country.
 
Any actively managed mutual fund is subject to the risk that its investment adviser will make poor security selections. A fund’s investment adviser applies its own investment techniques and risk analyses in making investment decisions for the fund, but there can be no guarantee that they will produce the desired results. The investment adviser’s maturity decisions will also affect a fund’s yield, and in unusual circumstances potentially could affect its share price. To the extent that the investment adviser anticipates interest rate trends imprecisely, a fund’s yield at times could lag those of other money market funds.
 
Liquidity risk exists when particular investments are difficult to purchase or sell. The market for certain investments may become illiquid due to specific adverse changes in the conditions of a particular issuer or under adverse market or economic conditions independent of the issuer. A fund’s investments in illiquid securities may reduce the returns of the fund because it may be unable to sell the illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price. Further, transactions in illiquid securities may entail transactions costs that are higher than those for transactions in liquid securities.
 
A fund may experience periods of heavy redemptions that could cause the fund to liquidate its assets at inopportune times or at a loss or depressed value, particularly during periods of declining or illiquid markets. Redemptions by a few large investors in a fund may have a significant adverse effect on the fund’s ability to maintain a stable $1.00 share price. In the event any money market fund fails to maintain a stable net asset value, other money market funds, including the funds, could face a market-wide risk of increased redemption pressures, potentially jeopardizing the stability of their $1.00 share prices.
 
The funds are not designed to offer capital appreciation. In exchange for their emphasis on stability and liquidity, money market investments may offer lower long-term performance than stock or bond investments.
 
Please refer to the funds’ prospectus for a more complete description of the principal risks of investing in the funds.

4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions:
 
Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (“CSIM” or the “investment adviser”), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Charles Schwab Corporation, serves as each fund’s investment adviser and administrator pursuant to an Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement (“Advisory Agreement”) between CSIM and the trust.
 
For its advisory and administrative services to the funds, CSIM is entitled to receive an annual fee, payable monthly, based on a percentage of each fund’s average daily net assets as follows:
 
         
Average Daily Net Assets
   
 
First $1 billion
    0.35%  
More than $1 billion but not exceeding $10 billion
    0.32%  
More than $10 billion but not exceeding $20 billion
    0.30%  
More than $20 billion but not exceeding $40 billion
    0.27%  
Over $40 billion
    0.25%  
 
The Board of Trustees has adopted a Shareholder Servicing and Sweep Administration Plan (the “Plan”) on behalf of the funds. The Plan enables each fund to bear expenses relating to the provision by service providers, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (a broker-dealer affiliate of CSIM, “Schwab”), of certain account maintenance, customer liaison and shareholder services to the current shareholders of the funds. Schwab serves as the funds’ paying agent under the Plan for making payments of the shareholder service fee due to the service providers (other than Schwab) under the Plan. All shareholder service fees paid by the funds to Schwab in its capacity as the funds’ paying agent will be passed through to the service providers, and Schwab will not retain any portion of such fees. The Plan also enables Schwab Government Money Fund and Schwab U.S. Treasury Money Fund to pay Schwab for certain sweep administration services, such as processing of automatic purchases and redemptions it provides to fund shareholders invested in such funds.
 
Pursuant to the Plan, each fund’s shares are subject to an annual shareholder servicing fee up to the amount set forth in the table below. The shareholder servicing fee paid to a particular service provider is made pursuant to its written agreement with Schwab (or, in the case of payments made to Schwab, pursuant to Schwab’s written agreement with the funds), and the funds will pay no more than the amounts listed in the table below of the average annual daily net asset value of the funds shares owned by shareholders holding shares through such service providers. Shares of the Schwab Government Money Fund and the Schwab U.S. Treasury Money Fund are also subject to an annual sweep administration fee of up to the amount set forth below. The sweep administration fee paid to Schwab is based on the average daily net asset value of the fund shares owned by shareholders holding shares through Schwab. Payments under the Plan are made as described above regardless of Schwab’s or the service provider’s actual cost of providing the services. If the cost of providing the services under the Plan is less than the payments received, the unexpended portion of the fees may be retained as profit by Schwab or the service provider.

4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions (continued):
 
Contractual Expense Limitation
 
Although these agreements specify certain fees for these services, CSIM and Schwab have made an additional agreement (“expense limitation”) with each fund to limit the total annual fund operating expenses, excluding interest, taxes, and certain non-routine expenses, as follows:
 
         
Schwab Government Money Fund*
    0.75%  
Schwab U.S. Treasury Money Fund*
    0.60%  
Schwab Value Advantage Money Fund
       
Investor Shares*
    0.45%  
Select Shares**
    0.35%  
Institutional Shares**
    0.24%  
Institutional Prime Shares**
    0.21%  
 
     
*
  CSIM and Schwab have agreed to limit the fund’s or fund share class’s expenses as described above for so long as CSIM serves as the investment adviser to the fund, which may only be amended or terminated with the approval of the fund’s Board of Trustees.
**
  CSIM and Schwab have agreed to limit this share class’s expenses as described above through April 29, 2013.
 
In addition, effective January 1, 2011 through December 31, 2011, CSIM and Schwab agreed to waive an additional amount of the Schwab Government Money Fund, Schwab U.S. Treasury Money Fund and Schwab Value Advantage Money Fund — Investor Shares and Select Shares expenses equal to 0.035% of each fund’s or share class’s average daily net assets.
 
Voluntary Expense Waiver/Reimbursement
 
In addition to the contractual expense limitation agreements noted above, Schwab and the investment adviser also may waive and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to maintain a positive net yield for Schwab Government Money Fund and Schwab Value Advantage Money Fund (and each of its classes) and a non-negative net yield for Schwab U.S. Treasury Money Fund. Schwab and the investment adviser may recapture from a fund any of these expenses or fees they have waived and/or reimbursed until the third anniversary of the end of the fiscal year in which such waiver and/or reimbursement occurs, subject to certain limitations. The reimbursement payments by a fund to Schwab and/or the investment adviser are considered “non-routine expenses” and are not subject to any net operating expense limitations in effect at the time of such payment. This recapture could negatively affect a fund’s future yield. There were no prior year amounts recaptured. As of December 31, 2011, the balance of recoupable expenses is as follows:
 
                                 
    Expiration Date

  As of December 31, 2011, the fund had no recoupable expenses for its Institutional Prime Shares.
 
The funds may engage in direct transactions with certain other Schwab Funds when practical. When one fund is seeking to sell a security that another is seeking to buy, an interfund transaction can allow both funds to benefit by reducing transaction costs. This practice is limited to funds that share the same investment adviser, trustees and/or officers. For the period ended December 31, 2011, each fund’s total aggregate security transactions with other Schwab Funds were as follows:
 
         
Schwab Government Money Fund
    $50,195,574  
Schwab U.S. Treasury Money Fund
     
Schwab Value Advantage Money Fund
    185,991,223

4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions (continued):
 
Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the funds may enter into interfund borrowing and lending transactions with other Schwab Funds. All loans are for temporary or emergency purposes only. The interest rate charged on the loan is the average of the overnight repurchase agreement rate and the short-term bank loan rate. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review of the Board of Trustees of the Schwab Funds. The funds had no interfund borrowing or lending activity during the period.
 
On September 14, 2010, The Charles Schwab Corporation made a payment of $56,536,372 to the Schwab Value Advantage Money Fund to cover the net remaining losses recognized as a result of its investment in a single structured investment vehicle that defaulted in 2008. This payment represented 0.2% of the fund’s net assets on that date.
 
5. Transfer Agent Services:
 
Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. (“BFDS”) provides transfer agent services for each fund.
 
6. Board of Trustees:
 
Trustees may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The trust did not pay any of these interested persons for their services as trustees, but it did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted in each fund’s Statement of Operations.
 
7. Borrowing from Banks:
 
The funds have access to custodian overdraft facilities, a committed line of credit of $150 million with State Street Bank and Trust (“State Street”), an uncommitted line of credit of $100 million with Bank of America, N.A. and an uncommitted line of credit of $50 million with Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. The funds pay interest on the amounts they borrow at rates that are negotiated periodically. The funds also pay an annual fee to State Street for the committed line of credit.
 
There were no borrowings from the lines of credit by the funds during the period. However, the funds may have utilized their overdraft facility and incurred interest expense, which is disclosed in the Statement of Operations, if any. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.
 
8. Federal Income Taxes:
 
As of December 31, 2011, the components of distributable earnings on a tax-basis were as follows:
 
                         
    Schwab
  Schwab
  Schwab
    Government
  U.S. Treasury
  Value Advantage
   
Money Fund

Undistributed ordinary income
    $33,189       $277,514       $—  
 
Capital loss carryforwards may be used to offset future realized capital gains, for federal income tax purposes. As of December 31, 2011, the following funds had capital loss carryforwards available to offset future net capital gains before the expiration dates:
 
                         
    Schwab
  Schwab

Total
    $—       $—       $2,000,135  
                         
 
For tax purposes, realized net capital losses incurred after October 31 may be deferred and treated as occurring on the first day of the following year. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the funds had no capital losses deferred and no capital losses utilized.

The tax-basis components of distributions paid during the current and prior fiscal years were:
 
                         
    Schwab
  Schwab
  Schwab
    Government
  U.S. Treasury
  Value Advantage

Current period distributions
Ordinary income
    $1,538,581       $2,117,699       $3,414,208  
 
Prior period distributions
Ordinary income
    $1,419,126       $1,828,911       $8,054,239  
 
Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income and net realized gains determined on a tax basis, which may differ from net investment income and net realized gains for financial reporting purposes. These differences are due primarily to differing treatment for items such as short-term capital gains. The fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year in which the net investment income and net realized gains are recorded by the funds for financial reporting purposes. The funds may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.
 
Permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between capital account and other accounts as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. As of December 31, 2011, the funds made the following reclassifications:
 
                         
    Schwab
  Schwab
  Schwab
    Government
  U.S. Treasury
  Value Advantage
   
Money Fund

    $105,000       $205,804       $—  
Net realized capital gains and losses
    (105,000 )     (205,804 )      
 
As of December 31, 2011, management has reviewed the tax positions for open periods (for federal purposes, three years from the date of filing and for state purposes, four years from the date of filing) as applicable to the funds, and has determined that no provision for income tax is required in the funds’ financial statements. The funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period ended December 31, 2011, the funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
 
On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (“the Act”) was signed by the President. The Act is the first major piece of legislation affecting Regulated Investment Companies (“RICs”) since 1986 and it modernizes several of the federal income and excise tax provisions related to RICs.
 
Certain of the enacted provisions include:
 
Post-enactment capital losses may now be carried forward indefinitely, but must retain the character of the original loss. Under pre-enactment law, capital losses could be carried forward for eight years, and carried forward as short-term capital, irrespective of the character of the original loss. The Act contains simplification provisions, which are aimed at preventing disqualification of a RIC for “inadvertent” failures of the asset diversification and/or qualifying income tests. Additionally, the Act exempts RICs from the preferential dividend rule, and repeals the 60-day designation requirement for certain types of pay-through income and gains.
 
Finally, the Act contains several provisions aimed at preserving the character of distributions made by a fiscal year RIC during the portion of its taxable year ending after October 31 or December 31, reducing the circumstances under which a RIC might be required to file amended Forms 1099 to restate previously reported distributions.
 
Except for the simplification provisions related to RIC qualification, the Act is effective for taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010. The provisions related to RIC qualification are effective for taxable years for which the extended due date of the tax return is after December 22, 2010.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
 
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of:
Schwab Government Money Fund
Schwab U.S. Treasury Money Fund
Schwab Value Advantage Money Fund
 
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio holdings, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Schwab Government Money Fund, Schwab U.S. Treasury Money Fund and Schwab Value Advantage Money Fund (three of the portfolios constituting The Charles Schwab Family of Funds, hereafter referred to as the “Funds”) at December 31, 2011, and the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2011 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

1 Trustees remain in office until they resign, retire or are removed by shareholder vote. The Schwab Funds® retirement policy requires that independent trustees elected after January 1, 2000 retire at age 72 or after twenty years as a trustee, whichever comes first. In addition, the Schwab Funds retirement policy also requires any independent trustee of the Schwab Funds who also serves as an independent trustee of the Laudus Funds to retire from the Boards of the Schwab Funds upon their required retirement date from either the Boards of Trustees of the Schwab Funds or the Laudus Funds, whichever comes first.
2 Mr. Schwab and Mr. Bettinger are Interested Trustees because they are employees of Schwab and/or the investment adviser. In addition to their employment with Schwab and/or the investment adviser, Messrs. Schwab and Bettinger also own stock of The Charles Schwab Corporation.
3 The President, Treasurer and Secretary hold office until their respective successors are chosen and qualified or until he or she sooner dies, resigns, is removed or becomes disqualified. Each of the other officers serves at the pleasure of the Board.

Glossary
 
 
agency discount notes Notes issued by federal agencies—known as Government Sponsored Enterprises, or GSEs—at a discount to their value at maturity. An agency discount note is a short-term investment alternative offering a high degree of credit quality.
 
asset-backed commercial paper A short-term investment that is typically issued by a bank or other financial institution. The notes represent an interest in financial assets such as trade receivables, credit card receivables, auto receivables, etc. and are generally used for the short-term financing needs of companies.
 
Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index A broad-based benchmark that measures the investment grade, U.S. dollar-denominated, fixed-rate taxable bond market, including Treasuries, government-related and corporate securities, mortgage-back securities (agency fixed-rate and hybrid ARM passthroughs), asset-backed securities, and commercial mortgage-backed securities.
 
Barclays Capital U.S. TIPS Index (Series-L) A rules-based, market value-weighted index that tracks inflation-protected securities issued by the U.S. Treasury that have at least one year remaining to maturity, are rated investment grade and have $250 million or more of outstanding face value.
 
capital gain, capital loss The difference between the amount paid for an investment and its value at a later time. If the investment has been sold, the capital gain or loss is considered a realized gain or loss. If the investment is still held, the gain or loss is still “on paper” and is considered unrealized.
 
commercial paper Promissory notes issued by banks, corporations and other entities to finance short-term credit needs. These securities generally are structured on a discounted basis but sometimes may be interest-bearing notes. Commercial paper, which may be unsecured, is subject to credit risk.
 
corporate note An unsecured debt security issued by a corporation that is subject to the credit risk of the issuer.
 
credit-enhanced securities Securities that are backed by the credit of an entity other than the issuer (such as a financial institution). Credit enhancements, which can equal up to 100% of the security’s value, are designed to help lower the risk of default on a security and may also make the security more liquid.
 
credit quality The capacity of an issuer to make its interest and principal payments. Federal regulations strictly regulate the credit quality of the securities a money market fund can buy.
 
credit ratings Debt issuers, including corporations, states and municipalities, may arrange with a recognized independent rating organization, such as Standard & Poor’s, Fitch, Inc. and Moody’s Investor Service, to rate their creditworthiness and/or the creditworthiness of their debt issues. For example, an issuer may obtain a long-term rating within the investment grade rating category, which is, from high to low, AAA, AA, A and BBB for Standard & Poor’s and Fitch, and Aaa, Aa, A and Baa for Moody’s.
 
credit risk The risk that a debt issuer may be unable to pay interest or repay principal to its debt holders.
 
dollar-weighted average maturity (DWAM) See weighted average maturity.
 
effective yield A measurement of a fund’s yield that assumes that all interest income is reinvested in additional shares of the fund.
 
expense ratio The amount that is taken from a mutual fund’s assets each year to cover the fund’s operating expenses. An expense ratio of 0.50% means that a fund’s expenses amount to half of one percent of its average net assets for the year.
 
face value The value of a bond, note, mortgage or other security as given on the certificate or instrument. Face value is also referred to as par value or nominal value.
 
illiquid securities Securities are generally considered illiquid if they cannot be disposed of promptly (typically within seven days) and in the ordinary course of business at approximately the amount at which a fund has valued the instruments.
 
interest Payments to holders of debt securities as compensation for loaning a security’s principal to the issuer.
 
liquidity-enhanced security The security’s structure includes a liquidity arrangement that requires an entity other than the issuer (such as a large financial institution) to provide funds to pay a tender under most circumstances. Liquidity enhancements are often used on variable-rate securities where the portfolio manager has an option to tender the securities for repayment within a specified time period (usually one day or one week) at any time prior to their final maturity.
 
maturity The date a debt security is scheduled to be “retired” and its principal amount repaid. The Maturity of an investment will generally reflect the security’s final maturity date unless the security’s structure includes a maturity-shortening provision such as an interest rate reset, demand feature or put feature (the “Effective Maturity Date”). For those securities with a maturity-shortening provision, including variable-rate demand securities, the Maturity is determined by using the Effective Maturity Date, as permitted by Rule 2a-7.
 
MSCI EAFE (Europe, Australasia, Far East) Index A free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets, excluding the US & Canada.
 
municipal securities Debt securities issued by a state, its counties, municipalities, authorities and other subdivisions, or the territories and possessions of the United States and the District of Columbia, including their subdivisions, agencies and instrumentalities and corporations. These securities may be issued to obtain money for various public purposes, including the construction of a wide range of public facilities such as airports, bridges, highways, housing, hospitals, mass transportation, public utilities, schools, streets, and water and sewer works.
 
net asset value per share (NAV) The value of one share of a mutual fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets, subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding. Money funds seek to maintain a steady NAV of $1.00.
 
outstanding shares, shares outstanding When speaking of a company or mutual fund, indicates all shares currently held by investors.
 
restricted securities Securities that are subject to contractual restrictions on resale. These securities are often purchased in private placement transactions.
 
S&P 500 Index A market capitalization index that is designed to measure the performance of 500 leading publicly held companies in leading industries of the U.S. economy.

section 3c7 securities Section 3c7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) exempts certain issuers from many regulatory requirements applicable to investment companies under the 1940 Act. An issuer whose outstanding securities are exclusively owned by “qualified purchasers” and who is not making or proposing to make a public offering of the securities may qualify for this exemption.
 
section 4(2)/144A securities Securities exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. These securities may be sold only to qualified institutional buyers under Securities Act Rule 144A.
 
taxable-equivalent yield The yield an investor would need to get from a taxable investment in order to match the yield paid by a given tax-exempt investment, once the effect of all applicable taxes is taken into account. For example, if your tax rate were 25%, a tax-exempt investment paying 4.5% would have a taxable-equivalent yield for you of 6.0% (4.5% ¸ [1 − 0.25%] = 6.0%).
 
Tier 1, Tier 2 Tier 1 is the highest category of credit quality, Tier 2 the second highest. A security’s tier can be established either by an independent rating organization or by a determination of the investment adviser. Money market fund shares and U.S. government securities are automatically considered Tier 1 securities. The Schwab Money Funds only purchase securities which are considered to be Tier 1; however, they may hold Tier 2 securities as a result of a downgrade of a portfolio security.
 
total return The percentage that an investor would have earned or lost on an investment in the fund assuming dividends and distributions were reinvested.
 
weighted average life (WAL) For money market mutual funds as per rule 2a-7, the weighted average life calculation takes into account either the final maturity date for each security held in the portfolio or, when relevant, the date of the next demand feature (when the fund is scheduled to receive payment of principal and interest after a demand). Money funds are required to maintain a weighted average life of no more than 120 days. Weighted average life for all Schwab money market funds is available in each fund’s monthly schedule of portfolio holdings at www.schwabfunds.com/prospectus and also available in each fund’s Form N-MFP on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov 60 days after the end of the month to which the information pertains.
 
weighted average maturity (WAM) For money market mutual funds as per rule 2a-7, the maturity date or Effective Maturity Date (see definition of maturity) of all the debt securities in its portfolio, or the date the interest rate on those securities is reset, or the date those securities can be redeemed through demand, calculated as a weighted average. As a rule, the longer a fund’s weighted average maturity, the greater its interest rate risk. Money funds are required to maintain a weighted average maturity of no more than 60 days.
 
yield The income paid out by an investment, expressed as a percentage of the investments market value.

From the President

Marie Chandoha is President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. and the funds covered in this report.

 
Dear Shareholder,
 
As President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for allowing us to serve your investment needs, and for reading this important communication concerning the performance of the Schwab money market funds. Although the investment environment has been challenging, recent signs suggest the potential for improvement.
 
During the year ended December 31, 2011, geopolitical unrest, natural disasters, legislative gridlock in the U.S., S&P’s downgrade of long-term U.S. sovereign debt, the euro zone’s ongoing debt crisis, and a shifting outlook regarding economic prospects resulted in a frequently volatile investment environment. Amid the market turbulence, bonds generated solid returns and money market securities continued to help investors preserve their hard-earned capital. On the equity side, U.S. stocks finished mixed after a year that generally favored defensive shares, dividend-paying stocks, and some of the largest blue-chip names. Record corporate profits and historically appealing levels for financial metrics such as price-to-earnings ratios served as part of the backdrop for the stock market’s performance, as did a fourth-quarter rally. The Dow Jones Industrial Average returned 8.38%, outpacing the 2.11% return of the S&P 500 Index, and the -4.18% loss posted by the small-cap Russell 2000 Index.
 
Early year optimism that U.S. economic growth would reach self-sustaining levels ultimately met with disappointing results. Inflation-adjusted U.S. economic activity (real GDP) expanded at a lackluster 0.4% annual pace in the first quarter of 2011. Although growth accelerated to a 2.8% annualized rate in the fourth quarter (advance estimate), the year’s overall level of activity represented a deceleration from the 3.0% pace achieved in 2010. As a result, companies remained reluctant to add employees at a consistently meaningful pace and the unemployment rate hovered around 9.0% for most of 2011, before trending lower during the final months of the year.
 
Attempting to right the unsettled economic landscape, the Federal Reserve (the Fed) implemented a variety of conventional and unconventional monetary operations. On the more conventional side, the Fed kept the federal funds rate target at a historically low 0-0.25%, where rates have held since they were first cut to that level in December 2008. Less conventionally, the Fed completed a second round of quantitative easing in June, purchasing approximately $600 billion of long-term Treasuries over roughly a 10-month period. This effort was designed to spark a faster rate of expansion by keeping long-term interest rates low. In late September, the Fed began “Operation Twist,” an attempt to further reduce long-term interest rates and help the still-troubled U.S. housing sector, while essentially holding short-term rates steady.
 
This collective backdrop paved the way for solid returns by fixed-income securities. U.S. Treasuries turned in particularly strong performances, thanks in part to intermittent bouts of investors looking for a safe haven. The U.S. Treasury sector of the Barclays Aggregate U.S. Bond Index returned 9.81% for the 12 months, the U.S. Agency sector returned 4.82%, and the Corporate sector returned 8.15%, while the longer maturities in each of these categories easily outperformed shorter maturities. The rally also pushed down the yield of the 10-year Treasury bond to only 1.89% by

the end of 2011, marking the first time in more than three decades that the yield on the benchmark bond finished a calendar year below 2.0%.
 
Money market instruments continued to offer a compelling means of achieving capital preservation for investors, even while posting near-zero returns. The historically low interest rate environment and periodic flights to safety drove up demand for short-term, highly liquid investments, a process that further reduced the already low yields on money market securities.
 
Thank you for investing in the Schwab money market funds. Please review the following pages for details about each fund’s characteristics, investment performance, and objectives.
 
We encourage you to review your investment portfolio regularly to make sure it meets your current financial plan. For answers to questions you may have or to consult our website for more information, please visit www.schwabfunds.com. We are also happy to hear from you at 1-800-435-4000.
 
Sincerely,

Schwab Municipal Money Fund
 
 
The Schwab Municipal Money Fund (the fund) seeks the highest current income consistent with stability of capital and liquidity, and is exempt from federal income tax. To pursue its goal, the fund invests in municipal money market securities from states and municipal agencies around the country, as well as from U.S. territories and possessions.
 
The fund’s investment adviser and its affiliates voluntarily waived certain fees or expenses for the 12 months ended December 31, 2011, to help the fund maintain a positive net yield and a net asset value of $1.00 per share.* For more information about the fund’s yield and other important characteristics, please review the charts and footnotes that follow this discussion.
 
Market Highlights. In a year fraught with volatility and extraordinary events (discussed in the President’s Letter on page 3), the supply of short-term municipal securities declined, while softer demand helped the market achieve an uneasy balance. One source that decreased the availability of securities came from municipalities that locked in affordable long-term financing by issuing bonds, rather than shorter-term securities (which require more frequent replacement at prevailing rates). The euro zone’s ongoing credit crisis and Japan’s tsunami also crimped supply by reducing the number of companies able to provide top-quality credit enhancements to short-term municipal borrowers. The growing use of direct loans between banks and municipalities—a developing trend—reduced supply as well.
 
On the demand side, non-traditional municipal investors that move large volumes of money to take advantage of perceived interest rate opportunities heavily influenced the market early in the year. A reduction in the supply of short-term Treasury bills combined with the more stringent requirements for extremely liquid securities to be held by taxable money market funds also enhanced the comparative appeal of municipal money market securities.
 
Yields of municipal money market securities continued to decline in that environment, as already rock bottom rates were squeezed lower still. Illustrating this outcome, the Security Industry and Financial Markets Association Municipal Swap Index—a widely used benchmark for municipal floating-rate securities—averaged between 0.23% and 0.30% early in 2011, but fell steadily after August to end the year at roughly 0.10%.
 
Positioning and Strategies. Given the market environment described above, the investment adviser focused on safety and high credit quality, while keeping the fund’s weighted average maturity (WAM) longer than many other municipal money market funds throughout 2011. Within that strategy, the fund’s WAM was kept particularly long through mid-April to help cushion the impact of volatile but relatively range-bound yields. Facing seasonal supply and demand issues associated with municipal securities maturing and new notes being issued, the fund’s WAM was allowed to shorten in June before being extended again in July as municipal notes were purchased at what were considered attractive levels.

* The 7-day average yield for the Sweep Shares and Value Advantage Shares was 0.01% throughout the entire period.
** Subject to the eligibility terms and conditions of your Schwab account agreement.
1 Please see prospectus for further detail and eligibility requirements.
2 Minimum initial investment for IRA and custodial accounts is $15,000. Municipal money funds are generally not appropriate investments for IRAs and other tax-deferred accounts. Please consult with your tax advisor about your situation.
3 Yield reflects the effect of the fund’s agreement with the investment adviser and its affiliates to limit each share class’s total annual operating expenses to certain levels (contractual expense limitation). In addition, the investment adviser and its affiliates have voluntarily waived expenses in excess of the contractual expense limitation to maintain a positive net yield for certain share classes of the fund (voluntary expense waiver). Without the contractual expense limitation and the voluntary expense waiver, the fund’s yield would have been lower. For additional details, see financial note 5.
4 Yield does not reflect the effect of the contractual expense limitation, but does reflect the effect of the voluntary expense waiver. The voluntary expense waiver added 0.38%, 0.24%, 0.14% and 0.03% to the seven-day yields of the Sweep Shares, Value Advantage Shares, Select Shares and Institutional Shares, respectively.
5 Taxable-equivalent effective yield assumes a 2011 maximum federal regular income tax rate of 35.00%. Investment income may be subject to the Alternative Minimum Tax.

On the demand side, non-traditional municipal investors that move large volumes of money to take advantage of perceived interest rate opportunities heavily influenced the market early in the year. A reduction in the supply of short-term Treasury bills combined with the more stringent requirements for extremely liquid securities to be held by taxable money market funds also enhanced the comparative appeal of municipal money market securities.
 
Yields of municipal money market securities continued to decline in that environment, as already rock bottom rates were squeezed lower still. Illustrating this outcome, the Security Industry and Financial Markets Association Municipal Swap Index—a widely used benchmark for municipal floating-rate securities—averaged between 0.23% and 0.30% early in 2011, but fell steadily after August to end the year at roughly 0.10%.
 
Positioning and Strategies. Given the market environment described above, the investment adviser focused on safety and high credit quality, while keeping the fund’s weighted average maturity (WAM) longer than many other municipal money market funds throughout 2011. Within that strategy, the fund’s WAM was kept particularly long early in the year to help cushion the impact of volatile but relatively range-bound yields. Facing seasonal supply and demand issues associated with municipal securities maturing and new notes being issued, the fund’s WAM was allowed to shorten in March and April before being extended again as municipal notes were purchased at what were considered attractive levels.

An investment in a money fund is neither insured nor guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or any other government agency. Although money funds seek to preserve the value of your investment at $1 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in a money fund.
 
Portfolio holdings may have changed since the report date.
 
* The 7-day average yield for the Sweep Shares and Value Advantage Shares was 0.01% throughout the entire period.
** Subject to the eligibility terms and conditions of your Schwab account agreement.
1 Please see prospectus for further detail and eligibility requirements.
2 Minimum initial investment for IRA and custodial accounts is $15,000. Municipal money funds are generally not appropriate investments for IRAs and other tax-deferred accounts. Please consult with your tax advisor about your situation.
3 Yield reflects the effect of the fund’s agreement with the investment adviser and its affiliates to limit each share class’s total annual operating expenses to certain levels (contractual expense limitation). In addition, the investment adviser and its affiliates have voluntarily waived expenses in excess of the contractual expense limitation to maintain a positive net yield for certain share classes of the fund (voluntary expense waiver). Without the contractual expense limitation and the voluntary expense waiver, the fund’s yield would have been lower. For additional details, see financial note 5.
4 Yield does not reflect the effect of the contractual expense limitation, but does reflect the effect of the voluntary expense waiver. The voluntary expense waiver added 0.43% and 0.26% to the seven-day yields of the Sweep Shares and Value Advantage Shares, respectively.
5 Taxable-equivalent effective yield assumes a 2011 maximum federal regular income tax rate of 35.00%. Investment income may be subject to the Alternative Minimum Tax.

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
 
 Examples for a $1,000 Investment
 
As a fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: transaction costs, such as redemption fees; and, ongoing costs, such as management fees, transfer agent and shareholder services fees, and other fund expenses.
 
The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare this cost with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for six months beginning July 1, 2011 and held through December 31, 2011.
 
Actual Return lines in the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value ¸ $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund or share class under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period.”
 
Hypothetical Return lines in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a fund’s or share class’ actual expense ratio and an assumed return of 5% per year before expenses. Because the return used is not an actual return, it may not be used to estimate the actual ending account value or expenses you paid for the period.
 
You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
 
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only, and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees. If these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Portfolio Holdings as of December 31, 2011
 
 
This section shows all the securities in the fund’s portfolio and their values as of the report date.
 
The fund files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarter of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. The fund’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be viewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C. Call 1-800-SEC-0330 for information on the operation of the Public Reference Room. The fund also files a complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC monthly on Form N-MFP which is available 60 days after the end of the month to which the information pertains. A monthly schedule of portfolio holdings is also available by visiting the fund’s website at www.schwabfunds.com/prospectus along with a link to the fund’s Form N-MFP filings on the SEC’s website.
 
For fixed rate obligations, the rate shown is the coupon rate (the rate established when the obligation was issued) and if the coupon rate is not available, the effective yield at the time of purchase is shown. For variable-rate obligations, the rate shown is the interest rate as of the report date. If the security’s structure includes one of a number of maturity-shortening provisions set forth in Rule 2a-7, such as an interest rate reset, demand feature or put feature, the effective maturity date is disclosed. In addition, the second maturity date shown is either the date on which the principal amount must be paid or the date payment must be made pursuant to a demand feature. If the effective maturity and maturity date are the same, the date will appear in the maturity date column.

Financial Notes
 
 
1. Business Structure of the Funds:
 
Each of the funds discussed in this report is a series of The Charles Schwab Family of Funds (the “trust”), a no-load, open-end management investment company. The trust is organized as a Massachusetts business trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The list below shows all the funds in the trust as of the end of the period, including the funds discussed in this report, which are highlighted:
 
         
 
The Charles Schwab Family of Funds (organized October 20, 1989)
 
Schwab Municipal Money Fund
   
Schwab Money Market Fund
 
Schwab AMT Tax-Free Money Fund
   
Schwab Government Money Fund
 
Schwab California Municipal Money Fund
   
Schwab U.S. Treasury Money Fund (closed to new investors)
 
Schwab California AMT Tax-Free Money Fund
   
Schwab Value Advantage Money Fund
 
Schwab New York AMT Tax-Free Money Fund
   
Schwab Advisor Cash Reserves
 
Schwab New Jersey AMT Tax-Free Money Fund
   
Schwab Cash Reserves
 
Schwab Pennsylvania Municipal Money Fund
   
Schwab Retirement Advantage Money Fund
 
Schwab Massachusetts AMT Tax-Free Money Fund
   
Schwab Investor Money Fund
       
 
 
Schwab Municipal Money Fund offers four share classes: Sweep Shares, Value Advantage Shares, Select Shares and Institutional Shares. Schwab AMT Tax-Free Money Fund offers two share classes: Sweep Shares and Value Advantage Shares. Shares of each class represent interest in the same portfolio, but each class has different expenses and investment minimums.
 
Shares are bought and sold at closing net asset value (“NAV”), which is the price for all outstanding shares of the funds. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the Board of Trustees may authorize the issuance of as many shares as necessary.
 
Each fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, each fund may also keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities law.
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
 
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds use in their preparation of financial statements. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
 
(a) Security Valuation:
 
Securities in the funds are valued at amortized cost (which approximates market value) as permitted in accordance with Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act. In the event that security valuations do not approximate market value, securities may be valued as determined in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees.
 
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the funds disclose the fair value of their investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). If the funds determine that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to estimate fair value.
 
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
 
  •  Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities — Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and whose values are therefore classified as Level 1 prices, include active listed equities. The funds do not adjust the quoted prices for such investments, even in situations where the funds hold a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted prices.
 
  •  Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) — Investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but whose values are based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or valuations provided by alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified as Level 2 prices. These generally include U.S. government and sovereign obligations, most government agency securities, investment-grade corporate bonds, certain mortgage products, less liquid listed equities, and

Financial Notes (continued)
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
  state, municipal and provincial obligations. As investments whose values are classified as Level 2 prices include positions that are not traded in active markets and/or are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations may be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, which are generally based on available market information. Securities held by money funds operating under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act are valued at amortized cost which approximates current market value and are considered to be valued using Level 2 inputs.
 
  •  Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) — Investments whose values are classified as Level 3 prices have significant unobservable inputs, as they may trade infrequently or not at all. When observable prices are not available for these securities, the funds use one or more valuation techniques for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used by the funds in estimating the value of Level 3 prices may include the original transaction price, quoted prices for similar securities or assets in active markets, completed or pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows. Level 3 prices may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by the funds in the absence of market information. Assumptions used by the funds due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the funds’ results of operations.
 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. At December 31, 2011, all of the funds’ investment securities were classified as Level 2. The breakdown of the funds’ investments into major categories is disclosed on the portfolio holdings.
 
The funds’ policy is to recognize transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 as of the beginning of the fiscal year. There were no significant transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 for the period ended December 31, 2011.
 
(b) Accounting Policies for certain Portfolio Investments (if held):
 
Delayed-Delivery Transactions: The funds may buy securities at a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place after the customary settlement period for that type of security. The funds will assume the rights and risks of ownership at the time of purchase, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations. Typically, no interest will accrue to a fund until the security is delivered. The funds will earmark or segregate appropriate liquid assets to cover its delayed-delivery purchase obligations.
 
(c) Security Transactions:
 
Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains or losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved.
 
(d) Investment Income:
 
Interest income is recorded as it accrues. If a fund buys a debt security at a discount (less than face value) or a premium (more than face value), it amortizes the discount or premium from the current date up to maturity. The fund then increases (in the case of discounts) or reduces (in the case of premiums) the income it records from the security. If the security is callable (meaning that the issuer has the option to pay it off before its maturity date), then the fund amortizes the premium to the security’s call date and price, rather than the maturity date and price.
 
(e) Expenses:
 
Expenses that are specific to a fund are charged directly to the fund. Expenses that are common to all funds within the trust generally are allocated among the funds in proportion to their average daily net assets.
 
For funds offering multiple share classes, the net investment income, other than class specific expenses, and the realized and unrealized gains or losses, are allocated daily to each class in proportion to their average daily net assets.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
(f) Distributions to Shareholders:
 
The funds declare distributions from net investment income, if any, every day they are open for business. These distributions, which are substantially equal to the funds’ net investment income for that day, are paid out to shareholders once a month. The funds make distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, once a year.
 
(g) Custody Credit:
 
The funds have an arrangement with their custodian bank, State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”), under which the funds receive a credit for their uninvested cash balance to offset their custody fees and accounting fees. The credit amounts, if any, are disclosed in the Statement of Operations as a reduction to the funds’ operating expenses.
 
(h) Accounting Estimates:
 
The accounting policies described in this report conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It’s possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates and these differences may be material.
 
(i) Federal Income Taxes:
 
The funds intend to meet federal income and excise tax requirements for regulated investment companies. Accordingly, the funds distribute substantially all of their net investment income and realized net capital gains, if any, to their respective shareholders each year. As long as a fund meets the tax requirements, it is not required to pay federal income tax.
 
(j) Indemnification:
 
Under the funds’ organizational documents, the officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal course of business the funds enter into contracts with their vendors and others that provide general indemnifications. The funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the funds. However, based on experience, the funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
 
(k) New Accounting Pronouncements:
 
In April 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) related to accounting for repurchase agreements and similar agreements that both entitle and obligate a transferor to repurchase or redeem financial assets before their maturity. The ASU modifies the criteria for determining effective control of transferred assets and as a result certain agreements may now be accounted for as secured borrowings. The ASU is effective prospectively for new and existing transfers that are modified in the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011.
 
In May 2011, the FASB issued an update to requirements relating to “Fair Value Measurement which represents amendments to achieve common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in US GAAP and IFRS.” The amendments include (i) those that clarify the FASB’s intent about the application of existing fair value measurement and disclosure requirements and (ii) those that change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. The amendments that change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or disclosing information about fair value measurements relate to (i) measuring the fair value of the financial instruments that are managed within a portfolio; (ii) application of premium and discount in a fair value measurement; and (iii) additional disclosures about fair value measurements. The update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 with early adoption prohibited.
 
At this time, management is evaluating the implications of these changes and their impact on the financial statements.
 
3. Credit and Liquidity Enhancements: 
 
A substantial portion of the funds’ investments are in securities with credit enhancements and/or liquidity enhancements from financial institutions or corporations. These enhancements are employed by the issuers of the securities to reduce credit risk

and provide liquidity for the purchaser. The following table provides detail on the approximate percentage of each fund’s investments in securities with these types of enhancements, as well as the name of the entity providing the largest proportion of enhancements in each fund. For additional information, please refer to the funds’ N-MFP regulatory filings which can be found on the funds’ website at www.schwabfunds.com/prospectus in the “Form N-MFP Link” under “Portfolio Holdings”.

4. Risk Factors:
 
An investment in a fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the funds seek to preserve the value of a shareholder’s investment at $1 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the funds.
 
Interest rates rise and fall over time. As with any investment whose yield reflects current interest rates, a fund’s yield will change over time. During periods when interest rates are low, a fund’s yield (and total return) also will be low. In addition, to the extent a fund makes any reimbursement payments to the investment adviser and/or its affiliates, the fund’s yield would be lower.
 
A fund is subject to the risk that a decline in the credit quality of a portfolio investment could cause the fund to lose money or underperform. A fund could lose money if the issuer of a portfolio investment fails to make timely principal or interest payments or if a guarantor or liquidity provider of a portfolio investment fails to honor its obligations. For fixed rate investments, the negative perceptions of the ability of an issuer, guarantor or liquidity provider to make such payments or otherwise honor its obligations, as applicable, could also cause the price of that investment to decline. The credit quality of a fund’s portfolio holdings can change rapidly in certain market environments and any downgrade or default on the part of a single portfolio investment could cause the fund’s share price or yield to fall. The fund’s investments in securities with credit or liquidity enhancements provided by foreign entities may involve certain risks that are greater than those associated with investments in securities with credit or liquidity enhancement provided by U.S. entities. These include risks of adverse changes in foreign economic, political, regulatory and other conditions; differing accounting, auditing, financial reporting and legal standards and practices; differing securities market structures; and higher transaction costs. In addition, sovereign risk, or the risk that a government may become unwilling or unable to meet its loan obligations or guarantees, could increase the credit risk of financial institutions connected to that particular country.
 
Any actively managed mutual fund is subject to the risk that its investment adviser will make poor security selections. A fund’s investment adviser applies its own investment techniques and risk analyses in making investment decisions for the fund, but there can be no guarantee that they will produce the desired results. The investment adviser’s maturity decisions will also affect a fund’s yield, and in unusual circumstances potentially could affect its share price. To the extent that the investment adviser anticipates interest rate trends imprecisely, a fund’s yield at times could lag those of other money market funds.
 
State and regional factors could affect a fund’s performance. To the extent that a fund invests in securities from a given state or geographic region, its share price and performance could be affected by local, state and regional factors, including erosion of the tax base and changes in the economic climate. Certain state constitutional amendments, legislative measures, executive orders, administrative regulations and voter initiatives could result in adverse consequences affecting the state and/or its municipalities. National governmental actions, such as elimination of tax-exempt status, also could affect performance. To the extent that a fund invests a substantial portion of its assets in municipal securities financing similar projects, the fund may be more sensitive to adverse economic, business or political developments. A change that affects one project, such as proposed legislation on the financing of the project, a shortage of materials needed for the project, or a declining need for the project, would likely affect all similar projects and the overall municipal securities market.
 
Some of a fund’s income could be taxable. If certain types of investments a fund buys as tax-exempt are later ruled to be taxable, a portion of the fund’s income could become taxable. This risk, although generally considered low, is somewhat higher for investments that have been structured as municipal money market securities than for other types of municipal money market

Financial Notes (continued)
 
4. Risk Factors (continued):
 
securities. Any defensive investments in taxable securities or securities whose interest is subject to the AMT could generate taxable income.
 
Liquidity risk exists when particular investments are difficult to purchase or sell. The market for certain investments may become illiquid due to specific adverse changes in the conditions of a particular issuer or under adverse market or economic conditions independent of the issuer. A fund’s investments in illiquid securities may reduce the returns of the fund because it may be unable to sell the illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price. Further, transactions in illiquid securities may entail transactions costs that are higher than those for transactions in liquid securities.
 
A fund may experience periods of heavy redemptions that could cause the fund to liquidate its assets at inopportune times or at a loss or depressed value, particularly during periods of declining or illiquid markets. Redemptions by a few large investors in a fund may have a significant adverse effect on the fund’s ability to maintain a stable $1.00 share price. In the event any money market fund fails to maintain a stable net asset value, other money market funds, including the funds, could face a market-wide risk of increased redemption pressures, potentially jeopardizing the stability of their $1.00 share prices.
 
The funds are not designed to offer capital appreciation. In exchange for their emphasis on stability and liquidity, money market investments may offer lower long-term performance than stock or bond investments.
 
Please refer to the funds’ prospectus for a more complete description of the principal risks of investing in the funds.
 
5. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions:
 
Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (“CSIM” or the “investment adviser”), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Charles Schwab Corporation, serves as each fund’s investment adviser and administrator pursuant to an Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement (“Advisory Agreement”) between CSIM and the trust.
 
For its advisory and administrative services to the funds, CSIM is entitled to receive an annual fee, payable monthly, based on a percentage of each fund’s average daily net assets as follows:
 
         
Average Daily Net Assets
   
 
First $1 billion
    0.35%  
More than $1 billion but not exceeding $10 billion
    0.32%  
More than $10 billion but not exceeding $20 billion
    0.30%  
More than $20 billion but not exceeding $40 billion
    0.27%  
Over $40 billion
    0.25%  
 
The Board of Trustees has adopted a Shareholder Servicing and Sweep Administration Plan (the “Plan”) on behalf of the funds. The Plan enables each fund to bear expenses relating to the provision by service providers, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (a broker-dealer affiliate of CSIM, “Schwab”), of certain account maintenance, customer liaison and shareholder services to the current shareholders of the funds. Schwab serves as the funds’ paying agent under the Plan for making payments of the shareholder service fee due to the service providers (other than Schwab) under the Plan. All shareholder service fees paid by the funds to Schwab in its capacity as the funds’ paying agent will be passed through to the service providers, and Schwab will not retain any portion of such fees. The Plan also enables the funds to pay Schwab for certain sweep administration services, such as processing of automatic purchases and redemptions it provides to fund shareholders invested in the funds.
 
Pursuant to the Plan, each fund’s shares are subject to an annual shareholder servicing fee and an annual sweep administration fee up to the amount set forth in the table below. The shareholder servicing fee paid to a particular service provider is made pursuant to its written agreement with Schwab (or, in the case of payments made to Schwab, pursuant to Schwab’s written agreement with the funds), and the funds will pay no more than the amounts listed in the table below of the average annual daily net asset value of the funds shares owned by shareholders holding shares through such service providers. The sweep administration fee paid to Schwab is based on the average daily net asset value of the fund shares owned by shareholders holding shares through Schwab. Payments under the Plan are made as described above regardless of Schwab’s or the service provider’s

Contractual Expense Limitation
 
Although these agreements specify certain fees for these services, CSIM and Schwab have made an additional agreement (“expense limitation”) with each fund to limit the total annual fund operating expenses, excluding interest, taxes, and certain non-routine expenses, as follows:
 
                 
    Schwab
  Schwab
    Municipal
  AMT Tax-Free

    0.24%       n/a  
 
     
*
  CSIM and Schwab have agreed to limit this share class’s expenses as described above for so long as CSIM serves as the investment adviser to the fund, which may only be amended or terminated with the approval of the fund’s Board of Trustees.
**
  Select Shares and Institutional Shares are only offered by Schwab Municipal Money Fund. CSIM and Schwab have agreed to limit this share class’s expenses as described above through April 29, 2013.
 
In addition, effective January 1, 2011 through December 31, 2011, CSIM and Schwab agreed to waive an additional amount of the Schwab Municipal Money Fund’s Select Shares, Value Advantage Shares and Sweep Shares expenses and the Schwab AMT Tax-Free Fund’s Value Advantage Shares and Sweep Shares expenses equal to 0.005% of each fund’s or share class’s average daily net assets.
 
Voluntary Expense Waiver/Reimbursement
 
In addition to the contractual expense limitation agreements noted above, Schwab and the investment adviser also may waive and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to maintain a positive net yield for each fund or each class of a fund. Schwab and the investment adviser may recapture from a fund any of these expenses or fees they have waived and/or reimbursed until the third anniversary of the end of the fiscal year in which such waiver and/or reimbursement occurs, subject to certain limitations. The reimbursement payments by a fund to Schwab and/or the investment adviser are considered “non-routine expenses” and are not subject to any net operating expense limitations in effect at the time of such payment. This recapture could negatively affect a fund’s future yield. There were no prior year amounts recaptured. As of December 31, 2011, the balance of recoupable expenses is as follows:

Financial Notes (continued)
 
5. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions (continued):
 
The funds may engage in direct transactions with certain other Schwab Funds when practical. When one fund is seeking to sell a security that another is seeking to buy, an interfund transaction can allow both funds to benefit by reducing transaction costs. This practice is limited to funds that share the same investment adviser, trustees and/or officers. For the period ended December 31, 2011, each fund’s total aggregate security transactions with other Schwab Funds were as follows:
 
         
Schwab Municipal Money Fund
    $1,134,362,000  
Schwab AMT Tax-Free Money Fund
    440,798,958  
 
Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the funds may enter into interfund borrowing and lending transactions with other Schwab Funds. All loans are for temporary or emergency purposes only. The interest rate charged on the loan is the average of the overnight repurchase agreement rate and the short-term bank loan rate. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review of the Board of Trustees of the Schwab Funds. The funds had no interfund borrowing or lending activity during the period.
 
6. Transfer Agent Services:
 
Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. (“BFDS”) provides transfer agent services for each fund.
 
7. Board of Trustees:
 
Trustees may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The trust did not pay any of these interested persons for their services as trustees, but it did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted in each fund’s Statement of Operations.
 
8. Borrowing from Banks:
 
The funds have access to custodian overdraft facilities, a committed line of credit of $150 million with State Street Bank and Trust (“State Street”), an uncommitted line of credit of $100 million with Bank of America, N.A. and an uncommitted line of credit of $50 million with Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. The funds pay interest on the amounts they borrow at rates that are negotiated periodically. The funds also pay an annual fee to State Street for the committed line of credit.
 
There were no borrowings from the lines of credit by the funds during the period. However, the funds may have utilized their overdraft facility and incurred interest expense, which is disclosed in the Statement of Operations, if any. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.
 
9. Federal Income Taxes:
 
As of December 31, 2011, the funds had no distributable earnings on a tax basis.
 
Capital loss carryforwards may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. As of December 31, 2011, the funds had no capital loss carryforwards.
 
For tax purposes, realized net capital losses incurred after October 31 may be deferred and treated as occurring on the first day of the following year. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the funds had no capital losses deferred and no capital losses utilized.

Ordinary income
    721,184       239,858  
Long-term capital gains
    883,353       39,977  
 
Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income and net realized gains determined on a tax basis, which may differ from net investment income and net realized gains for financial reporting purposes; there were no such differences in the current year. The fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year in which the net investment income and net realized gains are recorded by the funds for financial reporting purposes. The funds may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.
 
Permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between capital account and other accounts as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. As of December 31, 2011, the funds made the following reclassifications:
 
                 
    Schwab
  Schwab
    Municipal
  AMT Tax-Free
   
Money Fund

Capital shares
    $777,117       $205,901  
Net realized capital gains and losses
    (777,117 )     (205,901 )
 
As of December 31, 2011, management has reviewed the tax positions for open periods (for federal purposes, three years from the date of filing and for state purposes, four years from the date of filing) as applicable to the funds, and has determined that no provision for income tax is required in the funds’ financial statements. The funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period ended December 31, 2011, the funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
 
On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (“the Act”) was signed by the President. The Act is the first major piece of legislation affecting Regulated Investment Companies (“RICs”) since 1986 and it modernizes several of the federal income and excise tax provisions related to RICs.
 
Certain of the enacted provisions include:
 
Post-enactment capital losses may now be carried forward indefinitely, but must retain the character of the original loss. Under pre-enactment law, capital losses could be carried forward for eight years, and carried forward as short-term capital, irrespective of the character of the original loss. The Act contains simplification provisions, which are aimed at preventing disqualification of a RIC for “inadvertent” failures of the asset diversification and/or qualifying income tests. Additionally, the Act exempts RICs from the preferential dividend rule, and repeals the 60-day designation requirement for certain types of pay-through income and gains.
 
Finally, the Act contains several provisions aimed at preserving the character of distributions made by a fiscal year RIC during the portion of its taxable year ending after October 31 or December 31, reducing the circumstances under which a RIC might be required to file amended Forms 1099 to restate previously reported distributions.
 
Except for the simplification provisions related to RIC qualification, the Act is effective for taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010. The provisions related to RIC qualification are effective for taxable years for which the extended due date of the tax return is after December 22, 2010.

To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of:
Schwab Municipal Money Fund
Schwab AMT Tax-Free Money Fund
 
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio holdings, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Schwab Municipal Money Fund and Schwab AMT Tax-Free Money Fund (two of the portfolios constituting The Charles Schwab Family of Funds, hereafter referred to as the “Funds”) at December 31, 2011, and the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2011 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The Schwab Funds® retirement policy requires that independent trustees elected after January 1, 2000 retire at age 72 or after twenty years as a trustee, whichever comes first. In addition, the Schwab Funds retirement policy also requires any independent trustee of the Schwab Funds who also serves as an independent trustee of the Laudus Funds to retire from the Boards of the Schwab Funds upon their required retirement date from either the Boards of Trustees of the Schwab Funds or the Laudus Funds, whichever comes first.

Glossary
 
 
Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) A federal income tax designed to limit the extent to which high-income taxpayers (including individuals, estates, trusts and corporations) can benefit from certain deductions and exemptions. For example, some types of income that are exempt from regular federal income tax are not exempt from the AMT.
 
Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index A broad-based benchmark that measures the investment grade, U.S. dollar-denominated, fixed-rate taxable bond market, including Treasuries, government-related and corporate securities, mortgage-back securities (agency fixed-rate and hybrid ARM passthroughs), asset-backed securities, and commercial mortgage-backed securities.
 
Barclays Capital U.S. TIPS Index (Series-L) A rules-based, market value-weighted index that tracks inflation-protected securities issued by the U.S. Treasury that have at least one year remaining to maturity, are rated investment grade and have $250 million or more of outstanding face value.
 
bond A security representing a loan from the investor to the issuer. A bond typically pays interest at a fixed rate (the “coupon rate”) until a specified date (the “maturity date”), at which time the issuer returns the money borrowed (“principal” or “face value”) to the bond holder. Because of their structure, bonds are sometimes called “fixed income securities” or “debt securities.” An individual bond is subject to the credit risk of the issuer. Changes in interest rates can affect a bond’s market value prior to call or maturity. There is no guarantee that a bond’s yield to call or maturity will provide a positive return over the rate of inflation.
 
bond anticipation notes Obligations sold by a state or local government on a short-term basis in anticipation of the issuance of a longer-term bond in the future.
 
capital gain, capital loss The difference between the amount paid for an investment and its value at a later time. If the investment has been sold, the capital gain or loss is considered a realized gain or loss. If the investment is still held, the gain or loss is still “on paper” and is considered unrealized.
 
commercial paper Promissory notes issued by banks, corporations and other entities to finance short-term credit needs. These securities generally are structured on a discounted basis but sometimes may be interest-bearing notes. Commercial paper, which may be unsecured, is subject to credit risk.
 
credit-enhanced securities Securities that are backed by the credit of an entity other than the issuer (such as a financial institution). Credit enhancements, which can equal up to 100% of the security’s value, are designed to help lower the risk of default on a security and may also make the security more liquid.
 
credit quality The capacity of an issuer to make its interest and principal payments. Federal regulations strictly regulate the credit quality of the securities a money market fund can buy.
 
credit ratings Debt issuers, including corporations, states and municipalities, may arrange with a recognized independent rating organization, such as Standard & Poor’s, Fitch, Inc. and Moody’s Investor Service, to rate their creditworthiness and/or the creditworthiness of their debt issues. For example, an issuer may obtain a long-term rating within the investment grade rating category, which is, from high to low, AAA, AA, A and BBB for Standard & Poor’s and Fitch, and Aaa, Aa, A and Baa for Moody’s.
 
credit risk The risk that a debt issuer may be unable to pay interest or repay principal to its debt holders.
 
dollar-weighted average maturity (DWAM) See weighted average maturity.
 
effective yield A measurement of a fund’s yield that assumes that all interest income is reinvested in additional shares of the fund.
 
expense ratio The amount that is taken from a mutual fund’s assets each year to cover the fund’s operating expenses. An expense ratio of 0.50% means that a fund’s expenses amount to half of one percent of its average net assets for the year.
 
face value The value of a bond, note, mortgage or other security as given on the certificate or instrument. Face value is also referred to as par value or nominal value.
 
fixed rate notes A security with a fixed rate or coupon and a short maturity (typically within thirteen months). For example, bond, revenue or tax anticipation notes.
 
illiquid securities Securities are generally considered illiquid if they cannot be disposed of promptly (typically within seven days) and in the ordinary course of business at approximately the amount at which a fund has valued the instruments.
 
interest Payments to holders of debt securities as compensation for loaning a security’s principal to the issuer.
 
liquidity-enhanced security The security’s structure includes a liquidity arrangement that requires an entity other than the issuer (such as a large financial institution) to provide funds to pay a tender under most circumstances. Liquidity enhancements are often used on variable-rate securities where the portfolio manager has an option to tender the securities for repayment within a specified time period (usually one day or one week) at any time prior to their final maturity.
 
maturity The date a debt security is scheduled to be “retired” and its principal amount repaid. The Maturity of an investment will generally reflect the security’s final maturity date unless the security’s structure includes a maturity-shortening provision such as an interest rate reset, demand feature or put feature (the “Effective Maturity Date”). For those securities with a maturity-shortening provision, including variable-rate demand securities, the Maturity is determined by using the Effective Maturity Date, as permitted by Rule 2a-7.
 
money market securities High-quality, short-term debt securities that may be issued by states and local governments and their agencies. Money market securities must have an effective maturity of no longer than 397 days. Examples include bond and tax anticipation notes, commercial paper, variable-rate demand obligations and tender option bonds.
 
MSCI EAFE (Europe, Australasia, Far East) Index A free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets, excluding the US & Canada.
 
municipal securities Debt securities issued by a state, its counties, municipalities, authorities and other subdivisions, or the territories and possessions of the United States and the District of Columbia, including their subdivisions, agencies and instrumentalities and corporations. These securities may be issued to obtain money for various public purposes, including the construction of a wide range of public facilities such as
 
 
 
 91


 

airports, bridges, highways, housing, hospitals, mass transportation, public utilities, schools, streets, and water and sewer works.
 
net asset value per share (NAV) The value of one share of a mutual fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets, subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding. Money funds seek to maintain a steady NAV of $1.00.
 
outstanding shares, shares outstanding When speaking of a company or mutual fund, indicates all shares currently held by investors.
 
restricted securities Securities that are subject to contractual restrictions on resale. These securities are often purchased in private placement transactions.
 
revenue anticipation notes Obligations that are issued in expectation of the receipt of revenue, such as income taxes, property taxes, etc.
 
S&P 500 Index A market capitalization index that is designed to measure the performance of 500 leading publicly held companies in leading industries of the U.S. economy.
 
section 3c7 securities Section 3c7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) exempts certain issuers from many regulatory requirements applicable to investment companies under the 1940 Act. An issuer whose outstanding securities are exclusively owned by “qualified purchasers” and who is not making or proposing to make a public offering of the securities may qualify for this exemption.
 
section 4(2)/144A securities Securities exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. These securities may be sold only to qualified institutional buyers under Securities Act Rule 144A.
 
taxable-equivalent yield The yield an investor would need to get from a taxable investment in order to match the yield paid by a given tax-exempt investment, once the effect of all applicable taxes is taken into account. For example, if your tax rate were 25%, a tax-exempt investment paying 4.5% would have a taxable-equivalent yield for you of 6.0% (4.5% ¸ [1 − 0.25%] = 6.0%).
 
tax anticipation notes Notes that typically are sold to finance the cash flow needs of municipalities in anticipation of the receipt of taxes on a future date.
 
tender option bond A security which is created by a financial institution by combining a long-term municipal bond with a liquidity facility which converts the long-term bond into a money-market eligible security. Tender option bonds are issued as section 144A securities.
 
Tier 1, Tier 2 Tier 1 is the highest category of credit quality, Tier 2 the second highest. A security’s tier can be established either by an independent rating organization or by a determination of the investment adviser. Money market fund shares and U.S. government securities are automatically considered Tier 1 securities. The Schwab Money Funds only purchase securities which are considered to be Tier 1; however, they may hold Tier 2 securities as a result of a downgrade of a portfolio security.
 
total return The percentage that an investor would have earned or lost on an investment in the fund assuming dividends and distributions were reinvested.
 
variable rate demand obligations (VRDOs) Securities that have long maturities but which, because of their structure, require them to repay principal plus accrued interest within a specified timeframe (usually one or seven days) upon the demand of the bond holder. Depending on their structure, the repayment may be made by the bond issuer or by a financial institution, such as a highly rated bank.
 
variable rate demand preferred shares (VRDP) Variable rate demand securities that are issued by single state or national closed-end municipal bond funds, which, in turn, invest primarily in portfolios of tax-exempt municipal bonds. It is anticipated that the interest on VRDPs will be exempt from federal income tax. These securities are considered “municipal money market securities” for purposes of the fund’s investment policy as stated in the prospectus.
 
weighted average life (WAL) For money market mutual funds as per rule 2a-7, the weighted average life calculation takes into account either the final maturity date for each security held in the portfolio or, when relevant, the date of the next demand feature (when the fund is scheduled to receive payment of principal and interest after a demand). Money funds are required to maintain a weighted average life of no more than 120 days. Weighted average life for all Schwab money market funds is available in each fund’s monthly schedule of portfolio holdings at www.schwabfunds.com/prospectus and also available in each fund’s Form N-MFP on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov 60 days after the end of the month to which the information pertains.
 
weighted average maturity (WAM) For money market mutual funds as per rule 2a-7, the maturity date or Effective Maturity Date (see definition of maturity) of all the debt securities in its portfolio, or the date the interest rate on those securities is reset, or the date those securities can be redeemed through demand, calculated as a weighted average. As a rule, the longer a fund’s weighted average maturity, the greater its interest rate risk. Money funds are required to maintain a weighted average maturity of no more than 60 days.
 
yield The income paid out by an investment, expressed as a percentage of the investments market value.

Dear Shareholder,
 
As President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for allowing us to serve your investment needs, and for reading this important communication concerning the performance of the Schwab money market funds. Although the investment environment has been challenging, recent signs suggest the potential for improvement.
 
During the year ended December 31, 2011, geopolitical unrest, natural disasters, legislative gridlock in the U.S., S&P’s downgrade of long-term U.S. sovereign debt, the euro zone’s ongoing debt crisis, and a shifting outlook regarding economic prospects resulted in a frequently volatile investment environment. Amid the market turbulence, bonds generated solid returns and money market securities continued to help investors preserve their hard-earned capital. On the equity side, U.S. stocks finished mixed after a year that generally favored defensive shares, dividend-paying stocks, and some of the largest blue-chip names. Record corporate profits and historically appealing levels for financial metrics such as price-to-earnings ratios served as part of the backdrop for the stock market’s performance, as did a fourth-quarter rally. The Dow Jones Industrial Average returned 8.38%, outpacing the 2.11% return of the S&P 500 Index, and the -4.18% loss posted by the small-cap Russell 2000 Index.
 
Early year optimism that U.S. economic growth would reach self-sustaining levels ultimately met with disappointing results. Inflation-adjusted U.S. economic activity (real GDP) expanded at a lackluster 0.4% annual pace in the first quarter of 2011. Although growth accelerated to a 2.8% annualized rate in the fourth quarter (advance estimate), the year’s overall level of activity represented a deceleration from the 3.0% pace achieved in 2010. As a result, companies remained reluctant to add employees at a consistently meaningful pace and the unemployment rate hovered around 9.0% for most of 2011, before trending lower during the final months of the year.
 
Attempting to right the unsettled economic landscape, the Federal Reserve (the Fed) implemented a variety of conventional and unconventional monetary operations. On the more conventional side, the Fed kept the federal funds rate target at a historically low 0-0.25%, where rates have held since they were first cut to that level in December 2008. Less conventionally, the Fed completed a second round of quantitative easing in June, purchasing approximately $600 billion of long-term Treasuries over roughly a 10-month period. This effort was designed to spark a faster rate of expansion by keeping long-term interest rates low. In late September, the Fed began “Operation Twist,” an attempt to further reduce long-term interest rates and help the still-troubled U.S. housing sector, while essentially holding short-term rates steady.
 
This collective backdrop paved the way for solid returns by fixed-income securities. U.S. Treasuries turned in particularly strong performances, thanks in part to intermittent bouts of investors looking for a safe haven. The U.S. Treasury sector of the Barclays Aggregate U.S. Bond Index returned 9.81% for the 12 months, the U.S. Agency sector returned 4.82%, and the Corporate sector returned 8.15%, while the longer maturities in each of these categories easily outperformed shorter maturities. The rally also pushed down the yield of the 10-year Treasury bond to only 1.89% by

the end of 2011, marking the first time in more than three decades that the yield on the benchmark bond finished a calendar year below 2.0%.
 
Money market instruments continued to offer a compelling means of achieving capital preservation for investors, even while posting near-zero returns. The historically low interest rate environment and periodic flights to safety drove up demand for short-term, highly liquid investments, a process that further reduced the already low yields on money market securities.

State Investment Environment
 
 
California’s budget for fiscal 2012 (7/1/11-6/30/12) was signed by Governor Jerry Brown on June 30, 2011, resolving a budget gap originally projected at over $26 billion. To help close the final gap, the State Legislature added $4 billion to the revenue estimate, coupled with up to $2.5 billion of automatic cuts that would be triggered if the state later determined that the revenues were unlikely to be received. In December 2011, the state announced a projected revenue shortfall of $2.2 billion for the year which triggered $980 million of cuts to various programs. In addition, the Governor projected that some of the budgeted spending cuts may not be achieved, including some of the cuts to the state’s Medicaid program. Absent further corrective action, the state expects to end fiscal 2012 with a $4.1 billion deficit, which is equal to about 4.8% of annual spending.
 
On January 5, 2012, Governor Brown introduced his spending plan for fiscal 2013, which begins on July 1, 2012. The plan identified a projected budget gap of $9.2 billion, marking a significant improvement relative to the $26 billion deficit projected for the last budget. The Governor’s plan closes the gap with $4.7 billion of new revenues, mostly by asking voters to pass temporary increases in personal income tax rates on higher income residents and the state sales tax; $4.2 billion of additional spending cuts; and $1.4 billion of other solutions. The tax initiative would not be considered until the November 2012 election and the budget proposes $5.4 billion of automatic reductions that would be implemented if the measure fails. The state’s school districts would feel the greatest impact of a failed tax initiative, with automatic cuts in state funding of over $4.6 billion. School districts rely on state funds for nearly 60% of their operating revenues.
 
As in other states, many of the state’s cities, counties, school districts, as well as water and sewer systems, public and private universities, and non-profit health systems issue bonds. California’s recent budget cuts have had varying impacts on the credit quality of these issuers. While California school districts and community college districts receive, in aggregate, over 50% of their total funding from the state, their general obligation bonds are secured by dedicated local property tax levies. While many local property tax bases have been stable, the areas that experienced the most development in recent years have reported substantial tax base declines. Most counties have responded to state cuts in health and social service programs by passing the cuts on to their clients. Through the report period, San Diego, Los Angeles, and Santa Clara Counties have maintained their strong financial profiles, making their own budget reductions in response to state cuts and still weak local revenue growth. Fitch downgraded Riverside County’s rating to a still strong AA- in September 2011 on tax base contraction and use of reserves. California’s cities continued to face weakness in sales, business, and property taxes while struggling to maintain public safety programs and keep up with pension commitments. Moody’s downgraded its rating on the City of Los Angeles in July 2011 to a still strong Aa3 to reflect these stresses.
 
In contrast, California’s essential service enterprises and healthcare providers, such as the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California, the East Bay Municipal Utility District, the Bay Area Toll Authority and Kaiser Permanente are generally insulated from the state’s financial difficulties as they pay off their bonds with revenues received from the services they provide to customers.
 
California’s economy is emerging from a deep and long recession, the sharpest since the Great Depression. The state gained 233,100 jobs from November 2010 to November 2011, a 1.7% increase, which marks a significant improvement relative to the 188,300 jobs lost in 2010. However, California’s unemployment rate was still very high at 11.3% in November 2011, though down from 12.5% in November 2010. That rate placed the state at the second highest level in the country, behind only Nevada, and well above the national average of 8.6%.
 
State general obligations bond payments have a constitutional priority over most state spending. However, as of December 31, 2011, the Schwab municipal money funds did not hold any unenhanced State of California general obligation or appropriation securities.
 
Despite its diversified economy and high wealth indicators, California remains a weak investment-grade credit due primarily to its ongoing structural budget problems. The state’s general obligation ratings were A1 from Moody’s Investors Service and A- from Fitch Ratings and Standard & Poor’s Corp. at the end of the reporting period.

Schwab California Municipal Money Fund
 
 
The Schwab California Municipal Money Fund (the fund) seeks the highest current income that is consistent with stability of capital and liquidity, and is exempt from federal and California personal income tax. To pursue its goal, the fund invests in municipal money market securities from California issuers and municipal agencies around the country, as well as from U.S. territories and possessions.
 
The fund’s investment adviser and its affiliates voluntarily waived certain fees or expenses for the 12 months ended December 31, 2011, to help the fund maintain a positive net yield and a net asset value of $1.00 per share.* For more information about the fund’s yield and other important characteristics, please review the charts and footnotes that follow this discussion.
 
Market Highlights. In a year fraught with volatility and extraordinary events (discussed in the President’s Letter on page 4), the supply of short-term municipal securities declined, while softer demand helped the market achieve an uneasy balance. One source that decreased the availability of securities came from municipalities that locked in affordable long-term financing by issuing bonds, rather than shorter-term securities (which require more frequent replacement at prevailing rates). The euro zone’s ongoing credit crisis and Japan’s tsunami also crimped supply by reducing the number of companies able to provide top-quality credit enhancements to short-term municipal borrowers. The growing use of direct loans between banks and municipalities—a developing trend—reduced supply as well.
 
On the demand side, non-traditional municipal investors that move large volumes of money to take advantage of perceived interest rate opportunities heavily influenced the market early in the year. A reduction in the supply of short-term Treasury bills combined with the more stringent requirements for extremely liquid securities to be held by taxable money market funds also enhanced the comparative appeal of municipal money market securities.
 
Yields of municipal money market securities continued to decline in that environment, as already rock bottom rates were squeezed lower still. Illustrating this outcome, the Security Industry and Financial Markets Association Municipal Swap Index—a widely used benchmark for municipal floating-rate securities—averaged between 0.23% and 0.30% early in 2011, but fell steadily after August to end the year at roughly 0.10%.
 
Positioning and Strategies. Given the market environment described above, the investment adviser focused on safety and high credit quality, while keeping the fund’s weighted average maturity (WAM) longer than many other municipal money market funds throughout 2011. Within that strategy, the fund’s WAM was kept particularly long through mid-April to help cushion the impact of volatile but relatively range-bound yields. Facing seasonal supply and demand issues associated with municipal securities maturing and new notes being issued, the fund’s WAM was allowed to shorten in April and May before being extended again in June and July as municipal notes were purchased at what were considered attractive levels.

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
 
 Examples for a $1,000 Investment
 
As a fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: transaction costs, such as redemption fees; and, ongoing costs, such as management fees, transfer agent and shareholder services fees, and other fund expenses.
 
The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare this cost with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for six months beginning July 1, 2011 and held through December 31, 2011.
 
Actual Return lines in the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value ¸ $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund or share class under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period.”
 
Hypothetical Return lines in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a fund’s or share class’ actual expense ratio and an assumed return of 5% per year before expenses. Because the return used is not an actual return, it may not be used to estimate the actual ending account value or expenses you paid for the period.
 
You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
 
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only, and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees. If these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

For fixed rate obligations, the rate shown is the coupon rate (the rate established when the obligation was issued) and if the coupon rate is not available, the effective yield at the time of purchase is shown. For variable-rate obligations, the rate shown is the interest rate as of the report date. If the security’s structure includes one of a number of maturity-shortening provisions set forth in Rule 2a-7, such as an interest rate reset, demand feature or put feature, the effective maturity date is disclosed. In addition, the second maturity date shown is either the date on which the principal amount must be paid or the date payment must be made pursuant to a demand feature. If the effective maturity and maturity date are the same, the date will appear in the maturity date column.

A monthly schedule of portfolio holdings is also available by visiting the fund’s website at www.schwabfunds.com/prospectus along with a link to the fund’s Form N-MFP filings on the SEC’s website.
 
For fixed rate obligations, the rate shown is the coupon rate (the rate established when the obligation was issued) and if the coupon rate is not available, the effective yield at the time of purchase is shown. For variable-rate obligations, the rate shown is the interest rate as of the report date. If the security’s structure includes one of a number of maturity-shortening provisions set forth in Rule 2a-7, such as an interest rate reset, demand feature or put feature, the effective maturity date is disclosed.

Schwab California Municipal Money Fund offers two share classes: Sweep Shares and Value Advantage Shares. Shares of each class represent interest in the same portfolio, but each class has different expenses and investment minimums. Schwab California AMT Tax-Free Money Fund currently offers one share of class: Value Advantage Shares.
 
Shares are bought and sold at closing net asset value (“NAV”), which is the price for all outstanding shares of the funds. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the Board of Trustees may authorize the issuance of as many shares as necessary.
 
Each fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, each fund may also keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities law.
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
 
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds use in their preparation of financial statements. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
 
(a) Security Valuation:
 
Securities in the funds are valued at amortized cost (which approximates market value) as permitted in accordance with Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act. In the event that security valuations do not approximate market value, securities may be valued as determined in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees.
 
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the funds disclose the fair value of their investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). If the funds determine that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to estimate fair value.
 
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
 
  •  Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities — Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and whose values are therefore classified as Level 1 prices, include active listed equities. The funds do not adjust the quoted prices for such investments, even in situations where the funds hold a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted prices.
 
  •  Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) — Investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but whose values are based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or valuations provided by alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified as Level 2 prices. These generally include U.S. government and sovereign obligations, most government agency securities, investment-grade corporate bonds, certain mortgage products, less liquid listed equities, and

  state, municipal and provincial obligations. As investments whose values are classified as Level 2 prices include positions that are not traded in active markets and/or are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations may be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, which are generally based on available market information. Securities held by money funds operating under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act are valued at amortized cost which approximates current market value and are considered to be valued using Level 2 inputs.
 
  •  Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) — Investments whose values are classified as Level 3 prices have significant unobservable inputs, as they may trade infrequently or not at all. When observable prices are not available for these securities, the funds use one or more valuation techniques for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used by the funds in estimating the value of Level 3 prices may include the original transaction price, quoted prices for similar securities or assets in active markets, completed or pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows. Level 3 prices may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by the funds in the absence of market information. Assumptions used by the funds due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the funds’ results of operations.
 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. At December 31, 2011, all of the funds’ investment securities were classified as Level 2. The breakdown of the funds’ investments into major categories is disclosed on the portfolio holdings.
 
The funds’ policy is to recognize transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 as of the beginning of the fiscal year. There were no significant transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 for the period ended December 31, 2011.
 
(b) Accounting Policies for certain Portfolio Investments (if held):
 
Delayed-Delivery Transactions: The funds may buy securities at a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place after the customary settlement period for that type of security. The funds will assume the rights and risks of ownership at the time of purchase, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations. Typically, no interest will accrue to a fund until the security is delivered. The funds will earmark or segregate appropriate liquid assets to cover its delayed-delivery purchase obligations.
 
(c) Security Transactions:
 
Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains or losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved.
 
(d) Investment Income:
 
Interest income is recorded as it accrues. If a fund buys a debt security at a discount (less than face value) or a premium (more than face value), it amortizes the discount or premium from the current date up to maturity. The fund then increases (in the case of discounts) or reduces (in the case of premiums) the income it records from the security. If the security is callable (meaning that the issuer has the option to pay it off before its maturity date), then the fund amortizes the premium to the security’s call date and price, rather than the maturity date and price.
 
(e) Expenses:
 
Expenses that are specific to a fund are charged directly to the fund. Expenses that are common to all funds within the trust generally are allocated among the funds in proportion to their average daily net assets.
 
For funds offering multiple share classes, the net investment income, other than class specific expenses, and the realized and unrealized gains or losses, are allocated daily to each class in proportion to their average daily net assets.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
(f) Distributions to Shareholders:
 
The funds declare distributions from net investment income, if any, every day they are open for business. These distributions, which are substantially equal to the funds’ net investment income for that day, are paid out to shareholders once a month. The funds make distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, once a year.
 
(g) Custody Credit:
 
The funds have an arrangement with their custodian bank, State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”), under which the funds receive a credit for their uninvested cash balance to offset their custody fees and accounting fees. The credit amounts, if any, are disclosed in the Statement of Operations as a reduction to the funds’ operating expenses.
 
(h) Accounting Estimates:
 
The accounting policies described in this report conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It’s possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates and these differences may be material.
 
(i) Federal Income Taxes:
 
The funds intend to meet federal income and excise tax requirements for regulated investment companies. Accordingly, the funds distribute substantially all of their net investment income and realized net capital gains, if any, to their respective shareholders each year. As long as a fund meets the tax requirements, it is not required to pay federal income tax.
 
(j) Indemnification:
 
Under the funds’ organizational documents, the officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal course of business the funds enter into contracts with their vendors and others that provide general indemnifications. The funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the funds. However, based on experience, the funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
 
(k) New Accounting Pronouncements:
 
In April 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) related to accounting for repurchase agreements and similar agreements that both entitle and obligate a transferor to repurchase or redeem financial assets before their maturity. The ASU modifies the criteria for determining effective control of transferred assets and as a result certain agreements may now be accounted for as secured borrowings. The ASU is effective prospectively for new and existing transfers that are modified in the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011.
 
In May 2011, the FASB issued an update to requirements relating to “Fair Value Measurement which represents amendments to achieve common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in US GAAP and IFRS.” The amendments include (i) those that clarify the FASB’s intent about the application of existing fair value measurement and disclosure requirements and (ii) those that change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. The amendments that change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or disclosing information about fair value measurements relate to (i) measuring the fair value of the financial instruments that are managed within a portfolio; (ii) application of premium and discount in a fair value measurement; and (iii) additional disclosures about fair value measurements. The update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 with early adoption prohibited.
 
At this time, management is evaluating the implications of these changes and their impact on the financial statements.
 
3. Credit and Liquidity Enhancements: 
 
A substantial portion of the funds’ investments are in securities with credit enhancements and/or liquidity enhancements from financial institutions or corporations. These enhancements are employed by the issuers of the securities to reduce credit risk

and provide liquidity for the purchaser. The following table provides detail on the approximate percentage of each fund’s investments in securities with these types of enhancements, as well as the name of the entity providing the largest proportion of enhancements in each fund.

4. Risk Factors:
 
An investment in a fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the funds seek to preserve the value of a shareholder’s investment at $1 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the funds.
 
Interest rates rise and fall over time. As with any investment whose yield reflects current interest rates, a fund’s yield will change over time. During periods when interest rates are low, a fund’s yield (and total return) also will be low. In addition, to the extent a fund makes any reimbursement payments to the investment adviser and/or its affiliates, the fund’s yield would be lower.
 
A fund is subject to the risk that a decline in the credit quality of a portfolio investment could cause the fund to lose money or underperform. A fund could lose money if the issuer of a portfolio investment fails to make timely principal or interest payments or if a guarantor or liquidity provider of a portfolio investment fails to honor its obligations. For fixed rate investments, the negative perceptions of the ability of an issuer, guarantor or liquidity provider to make such payments or otherwise honor its obligations, as applicable, could also cause the price of that investment to decline. The credit quality of a fund’s portfolio holdings can change rapidly in certain market environments and any downgrade or default on the part of a single portfolio investment could cause the fund’s share price or yield to fall. The fund’s investments in securities with credit or liquidity enhancements provided by foreign entities may involve certain risks that are greater than those associated with investments in securities with credit or liquidity enhancement provided by U.S. entities. These include risks of adverse changes in foreign economic, political, regulatory and other conditions; differing accounting, auditing, financial reporting and legal standards and practices; differing securities market structures; and higher transaction costs. In addition, sovereign risk, or the risk that a government may become unwilling or unable to meet its loan obligations or guarantees, could increase the credit risk of financial institutions connected to that particular country.
 
Any actively managed mutual fund is subject to the risk that its investment adviser will make poor security selections. A fund’s investment adviser applies its own investment techniques and risk analyses in making investment decisions for the fund, but there can be no guarantee that they will produce the desired results. The investment adviser’s maturity decisions will also affect a fund’s yield, and in unusual circumstances potentially could affect its share price. To the extent that the investment adviser anticipates interest rate trends imprecisely, a fund’s yield at times could lag those of other money market funds.
 
The funds invest primarily in securities issued by the State of California and its municipalities. Any reduction in the credit ratings of obligations of these issuers could adversely affect the market values and marketability of such securities, and, consequently, the value of a fund’s portfolio. Further, a fund’s share price and performance could be affected by local, state and regional factors, including erosion of the tax base and changes in the economic climate. Certain California constitutional amendments, legislative measures, executive orders, administrative regulations and voter initiatives could result in adverse consequences affecting the State of California and/or its municipalities. The possibility exists that a natural disaster, including an earthquake, could create a major dislocation of the California economy and significantly affects the ability of state and local governments to raise money to pay principal and interest on their municipal securities. National governmental actions, such as elimination of tax-exempt status, also could affect performance. To the extent that a fund invests a substantial portion of its assets in municipal securities financing similar projects, the fund may be more sensitive to adverse economic, business or political developments. A change that affects one project, such as proposed legislation on the financing of the project, a shortage

4. Risk Factors (continued):
 
of materials needed for the project, or a declining need for the project, would likely affect all similar projects and the overall municipal securities market.
 
Some of a fund’s income could be taxable. If certain types of investments a fund buys as tax-exempt are later ruled to be taxable, a portion of the fund’s income could become taxable. This risk, although generally considered low, is somewhat higher for investments that have been structured as municipal money market securities than for other types of municipal money market securities. Any defensive investments in taxable securities or securities whose interest is subject to the AMT could generate taxable income.
 
Liquidity risk exists when particular investments are difficult to purchase or sell. The market for certain investments may become illiquid due to specific adverse changes in the conditions of a particular issuer or under adverse market or economic conditions independent of the issuer. A fund’s investments in illiquid securities may reduce the returns of the fund because it may be unable to sell the illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price. Further, transactions in illiquid securities may entail transactions costs that are higher than those for transactions in liquid securities.
 
A fund may experience periods of heavy redemptions that could cause the fund to liquidate its assets at inopportune times or at a loss or depressed value, particularly during periods of declining or illiquid markets. Redemptions by a few large investors in a fund may have a significant adverse effect on the fund’s ability to maintain a stable $1.00 share price. In the event any money market fund fails to maintain a stable net asset value, other money market funds, including the funds, could face a market-wide risk of increased redemption pressures, potentially jeopardizing the stability of their $1.00 share prices.
 
The funds are not designed to offer capital appreciation. In exchange for their emphasis on stability and liquidity, money market investments may offer lower long-term performance than stock or bond investments.
 
Please refer to the funds’ prospectus for a more complete description of the principal risks of investing in the funds.
 
5. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions:
 
Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (“CSIM” or the “investment adviser”), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Charles Schwab Corporation, serves as each fund’s investment adviser and administrator pursuant to an Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement (“Advisory Agreement”) between CSIM and the trust.
 
For its advisory and administrative services to the funds, CSIM is entitled to receive an annual fee, payable monthly, based on a percentage of each fund’s average daily net assets as follows:
 
         
Average Daily Net Assets
   
 
First $1 billion
    0.35%  
More than $1 billion but not exceeding $10 billion
    0.32%  
More than $10 billion but not exceeding $20 billion
    0.30%  
More than $20 billion but not exceeding $40 billion
    0.27%  
Over $40 billion
    0.25%  
 
The Board of Trustees has adopted a Shareholder Servicing and Sweep Administration Plan (the “Plan”) on behalf of the funds. The Plan enables each fund to bear expenses relating to the provision by service providers, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (a broker-dealer affiliate of CSIM, “Schwab”), of certain account maintenance, customer liaison and shareholder services to the current shareholders of the funds. Schwab serves as the funds’ paying agent under the Plan for making payments of the shareholder service fee due to the service providers (other than Schwab) under the Plan. All shareholder service fees paid by the funds to Schwab in its capacity as the funds’ paying agent will be passed through to the service providers, and Schwab will not retain any portion of such fees. The Plan also enables the Schwab California Municipal Money Fund to pay Schwab for certain sweep administration services, such as processing of automatic purchases and redemptions it provides to fund shareholders invested in the fund.
 
Pursuant to the Plan, each fund’s shares are subject to an annual shareholder servicing fee up to the amount set forth in the table below. The shareholder servicing fee paid to a particular service provider is made pursuant to its written agreement with Schwab (or, in the case of payments made to Schwab, pursuant to Schwab’s written agreement with the funds), and the funds will pay no more than the amounts listed in the table below of the average annual daily net asset value of the funds shares

owned by shareholders holding shares through such service providers. Shares of the Schwab California Municipal Money Fund are also subject to an annual sweep administration fee of up to the amount set forth below. The swap administration fee paid to Schwab is based on the average daily net asset value of the fund shares owned by shareholders holding shares through Schwab. Payments under the Plan are made as described above regardless of Schwab’s or the service provider’s actual cost of providing the services. If the cost of providing the services under the Plan is less than the payments received, the unexpended portion of the fees may be retained as profit by Schwab or the service provider.

Contractual Expense Limitation
 
Although these agreements specify certain fees for these services, CSIM and Schwab have made an additional agreement (“expense limitation”) with each fund, for so long as CSIM serves as the investment adviser to the funds, which may only be amended or terminated with the approval of the funds’ Board of Trustees, to limit the total annual fund operating expenses, excluding interest, taxes, and certain non-routine expenses, as follows:
 
         
Sweep Shares*
    0.60%  
Value Advantage Shares
    0.45%  
 
     
*
  Sweep Shares are only offered by Schwab California Municipal Money Fund.
 
In addition, effective January 1, 2011 through December 31, 2011, CSIM and Schwab agreed to waive an additional amount of the funds’ expenses equal to 0.005% of the funds’ average daily assets.
 
Voluntary Expense Waiver/Reimbursement
 
In addition to the contractual expense limitation agreements noted above, Schwab and the investment adviser also may waive and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to maintain a positive net yield for each fund or each class of a fund. Schwab and the investment adviser may recapture from a fund any of these expenses or fees they have waived and/or reimbursed until the third anniversary of the end of the fiscal year in which such waiver and/or reimbursement occurs, subject to certain limitations. The reimbursement payments by a fund to Schwab and/or the investment adviser are considered “non-routine expenses” and are not subject to any net operating expense limitations in effect at the time of such payment. This recapture could negatively affect a fund’s future yield. There were no prior year amounts recaptured. As of December 31, 2011, the balance of recoupable expenses is as follows:

The funds may engage in direct transactions with certain other Schwab Funds when practical. When one fund is seeking to sell a security that another is seeking to buy, an interfund transaction can allow both funds to benefit by reducing transaction costs. This practice is limited to funds that share the same investment adviser, trustees and/or officers. For the period ended December 31, 2011, each fund’s total aggregate security transactions with other Schwab Funds were as follows:

5. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions (continued):
 
Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the funds may enter into interfund borrowing and lending transactions with other Schwab Funds. All loans are for temporary or emergency purposes only. The interest rate charged on the loan is the average of the overnight repurchase agreement rate and the short-term bank loan rate. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review of the Board of Trustees of the Schwab Funds. The funds had no interfund borrowing or lending activity during the period.
 
6. Transfer Agent Services:
 
Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. (“BFDS”) provides transfer agent services for each fund.
 
7. Board of Trustees:
 
Trustees may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The trust did not pay any of these interested persons for their services as trustees, but it did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted in each fund’s Statement of Operations.
 
8. Borrowing from Banks:
 
The funds have access to custodian overdraft facilities, a committed line of credit of $150 million with State Street Bank and Trust (“State Street”), an uncommitted line of credit of $100 million with Bank of America, N.A. and an uncommitted line of credit of $50 million with Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. The funds pay interest on the amounts they borrow at rates that are negotiated periodically. The funds also pay an annual fee to State Street for the committed line of credit.
 
There were no borrowings from the lines of credit by the funds during the period. However, the funds may have utilized their overdraft facility and incurred interest expense, which is disclosed in the Statement of Operations, if any. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.
 
9. Federal Income Taxes:
 
As of December 31, 2011, the funds had no distributable earnings on a tax basis.
 
Capital loss carryforwards may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. As of December 31, 2011, the funds had no capital loss carryforwards.
 
For tax purposes, realized net capital losses incurred after October 31 may be deferred and treated as occurring on the first day of the following year. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the funds had no capital losses deferred and no capital losses utilized.
 
The tax-basis components of distributions paid during the current and prior fiscal years were:

the current year. The fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year in which the net investment income and net realized gains are recorded by the funds for financial reporting purposes. The funds may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.
 
Permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between capital account and other accounts as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. As of December 31, 2011, the funds made the following reclassifications:
 
                 
    Schwab
  Schwab
    California Municipal
  California AMT Tax-Free
   
Money Fund
 
Money Fund
 
Capital shares
    $151,818       $4,521  
Net realized capital gains and losses
    (151,818 )     (4,521 )
 
As of December 31, 2011, management has reviewed the tax positions for open periods (for federal purposes, three years from the date of filing and for state purposes, four years from the date of filing) as applicable to the funds, and has determined that no provision for income tax is required in the funds’ financial statements. The funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period ended December 31, 2011, the funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
 
On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (“the Act”) was signed by the President. The Act is the first major piece of legislation affecting Regulated Investment Companies (“RICs”) since 1986 and it modernizes several of the federal income and excise tax provisions related to RICs.
 
Certain of the enacted provisions include:
 
Post-enactment capital losses may now be carried forward indefinitely, but must retain the character of the original loss. Under pre-enactment law, capital losses could be carried forward for eight years, and carried forward as short-term capital, irrespective of the character of the original loss. The Act contains simplification provisions, which are aimed at preventing disqualification of a RIC for “inadvertent” failures of the asset diversification and/or qualifying income tests. Additionally, the Act exempts RICs from the preferential dividend rule, and repeals the 60-day designation requirement for certain types of pay-through income and gains.
 
Finally, the Act contains several provisions aimed at preserving the character of distributions made by a fiscal year RIC during the portion of its taxable year ending after October 31 or December 31, reducing the circumstances under which a RIC might be required to file amended Forms 1099 to restate previously reported distributions.
 
Except for the simplification provisions related to RIC qualification, the Act is effective for taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010. The provisions related to RIC qualification are effective for taxable years for which the extended due date of the tax return is after December 22, 2010.
 
10. Subsequent Events:
 
Management has determined there are no subsequent events or transactions through the date the financial statements were issued that would have materially impacted the financial statements as presented.

To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of:
Schwab California Municipal Money Fund
Schwab California AMT Tax-Free Money Fund
 
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio holdings, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Schwab California Municipal Money Fund and Schwab California AMT Tax-Free Money Fund (two of the portfolios constituting The Charles Schwab Family of Funds, hereafter referred to as the “Funds”) at December 31, 2011, and the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2011 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Glossary
 
 
Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) A federal income tax designed to limit the extent to which high-income taxpayers (including individuals, estates, trusts and corporations) can benefit from certain deductions and exemptions. For example, some types of income that are exempt from regular federal income tax are not exempt from the AMT.
 
Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index A broad-based benchmark that measures the investment grade, U.S. dollar-denominated, fixed-rate taxable bond market, including Treasuries, government-related and corporate securities, mortgage-back securities (agency fixed-rate and hybrid ARM passthroughs), asset-backed securities, and commercial mortgage-backed securities.
 
Barclays Capital U.S. TIPS Index (Series-L) A rules-based, market value-weighted index that tracks inflation-protected securities issued by the U.S. Treasury that have at least one year remaining to maturity, are rated investment grade and have $250 million or more of outstanding face value.
 
bond A security representing a loan from the investor to the issuer. A bond typically pays interest at a fixed rate (the “coupon rate”) until a specified date (the “maturity date”), at which time the issuer returns the money borrowed (“principal” or “face value”) to the bond holder. Because of their structure, bonds are sometimes called “fixed income securities” or “debt securities.” An individual bond is subject to the credit risk of the issuer. Changes in interest rates can affect a bond’s market value prior to call or maturity. There is no guarantee that a bond’s yield to call or maturity will provide a positive return over the rate of inflation.
 
bond anticipation notes Obligations sold by a state or local government on a short-term basis in anticipation of the issuance of a longer-term bond in the future.
 
capital gain, capital loss The difference between the amount paid for an investment and its value at a later time. If the investment has been sold, the capital gain or loss is considered a realized gain or loss. If the investment is still held, the gain or loss is still “on paper” and is considered unrealized.
 
commercial paper Promissory notes issued by banks, corporations and other entities to finance short-term credit needs. These securities generally are structured on a discounted basis but sometimes may be interest-bearing notes. Commercial paper, which may be unsecured, is subject to credit risk.
 
credit-enhanced securities Securities that are backed by the credit of an entity other than the issuer (such as a financial institution). Credit enhancements, which can equal up to 100% of the security’s value, are designed to help lower the risk of default on a security and may also make the security more liquid.
 
credit quality The capacity of an issuer to make its interest and principal payments. Federal regulations strictly regulate the credit quality of the securities a money market fund can buy.
 
credit ratings Debt issuers, including corporations, states and municipalities, may arrange with a recognized independent rating organization, such as Standard & Poor’s, Fitch, Inc. and Moody’s Investor Service, to rate their creditworthiness and/or the creditworthiness of their debt issues. For example, an issuer may obtain a long-term rating within the investment grade rating category, which is, from high to low, AAA, AA, A and BBB for Standard & Poor’s and Fitch, and Aaa, Aa, A and Baa for Moody’s.
 
credit risk The risk that a debt issuer may be unable to pay interest or repay principal to its debt holders.
 
dollar-weighted average maturity (DWAM) See weighted average maturity.
 
effective yield A measurement of a fund’s yield that assumes that all interest income is reinvested in additional shares of the fund.
 
expense ratio The amount that is taken from a mutual fund’s assets each year to cover the fund’s operating expenses. An expense ratio of 0.50% means that a fund’s expenses amount to half of one percent of its average net assets for the year.
 
face value The value of a bond, note, mortgage or other security as given on the certificate or instrument. Face value is also referred to as par value or nominal value.
 
fixed rate notes A security with a fixed rate or coupon and a short maturity (typically within thirteen months). For example, bond, revenue or tax anticipation notes.
 
illiquid securities Securities are generally considered illiquid if they cannot be disposed of promptly (typically within seven days) and in the ordinary course of business at approximately the amount at which a fund has valued the instruments.
 
interest Payments to holders of debt securities as compensation for loaning a security’s principal to the issuer.
 
liquidity-enhanced security The security’s structure includes a liquidity arrangement that requires an entity other than the issuer (such as a large financial institution) to provide funds to pay a tender under most circumstances. Liquidity enhancements are often used on variable-rate securities where the portfolio manager has an option to tender the securities for repayment within a specified time period (usually one day or one week) at any time prior to their final maturity.
 
maturity The date a debt security is scheduled to be “retired” and its principal amount repaid. The Maturity of an investment will generally reflect the security’s final maturity date unless the security’s structure includes a maturity-shortening provision such as an interest rate reset, demand feature or put feature (the “Effective Maturity Date”). For those securities with a maturity-shortening provision, including variable-rate demand securities, the Maturity is determined by using the Effective Maturity Date, as permitted by Rule 2a-7.
 
money market securities High-quality, short-term debt securities that may be issued by states and local governments and their agencies. Money market securities must have an effective maturity of no longer than 397 days. Examples include bond and tax anticipation notes, commercial paper, variable-rate demand obligations and tender option bonds.
 
MSCI EAFE (Europe, Australasia, Far East) Index A free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets, excluding the US & Canada.
 
municipal securities Debt securities issued by a state, its counties, municipalities, authorities and other subdivisions, or the territories and possessions of the United States and the District of Columbia, including their subdivisions, agencies and instrumentalities and corporations. These securities may be issued to obtain money for various public purposes, including the construction of a wide range of public facilities such as
 
 
 
56 


 

airports, bridges, highways, housing, hospitals, mass transportation, public utilities, schools, streets, and water and sewer works.
 
net asset value per share (NAV) The value of one share of a mutual fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets, subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding. Money funds seek to maintain a steady NAV of $1.00.
 
outstanding shares, shares outstanding When speaking of a company or mutual fund, indicates all shares currently held by investors.
 
restricted securities Securities that are subject to contractual restrictions on resale. These securities are often purchased in private placement transactions.
 
revenue anticipation notes Obligations that are issued in expectation of the receipt of revenue, such as income taxes, property taxes, etc.
 
S&P 500 Index A market capitalization index that is designed to measure the performance of 500 leading publicly held companies in leading industries of the U.S. economy.
 
section 3c7 securities Section 3c7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) exempts certain issuers from many regulatory requirements applicable to investment companies under the 1940 Act. An issuer whose outstanding securities are exclusively owned by “qualified purchasers” and who is not making or proposing to make a public offering of the securities may qualify for this exemption.
 
section 4(2)/144A securities Securities exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. These securities may be sold only to qualified institutional buyers under Securities Act Rule 144A.
 
taxable-equivalent yield The yield an investor would need to get from a taxable investment in order to match the yield paid by a given tax-exempt investment, once the effect of all applicable taxes is taken into account. For example, if your tax rate were 25%, a tax-exempt investment paying 4.5% would have a taxable-equivalent yield for you of 6.0% (4.5% ¸ [1 − 0.25%] = 6.0%).
 
tax anticipation notes Notes that typically are sold to finance the cash flow needs of municipalities in anticipation of the receipt of taxes on a future date.
 
tender option bond A security which is created by a financial institution by combining a long-term municipal bond with a liquidity facility which converts the long-term bond into a money-market eligible security. Tender option bonds are issued as section 144A securities.
 
Tier 1, Tier 2 Tier 1 is the highest category of credit quality, Tier 2 the second highest. A security’s tier can be established either by an independent rating organization or by a determination of the investment adviser. Money market fund shares and U.S. government securities are automatically considered Tier 1 securities. The Schwab Money Funds only purchase securities which are considered to be Tier 1; however, they may hold Tier 2 securities as a result of a downgrade of a portfolio security.
 
total return The percentage that an investor would have earned or lost on an investment in the fund assuming dividends and distributions were reinvested.
 
variable rate demand obligations (VRDOs) Securities that have long maturities but which, because of their structure, require them to repay principal plus accrued interest within a specified timeframe (usually one or seven days) upon the demand of the bond holder. Depending on their structure, the repayment may be made by the bond issuer or by a financial institution, such as a highly rated bank.
 
variable rate demand preferred shares (VRDP) Variable rate demand securities that are issued by single state or national closed-end municipal bond funds, which, in turn, invest primarily in portfolios of tax-exempt municipal bonds. It is anticipated that the interest on VRDPs will be exempt from federal income tax. These securities are considered “municipal money market securities” for purposes of the fund’s investment policy as stated in the prospectus.
 
weighted average life (WAL) For money market mutual funds as per rule 2a-7, the weighted average life calculation takes into account either the final maturity date for each security held in the portfolio or, when relevant, the date of the next demand feature (when the fund is scheduled to receive payment of principal and interest after a demand). Money funds are required to maintain a weighted average life of no more than 120 days. Weighted average life for all Schwab money market funds is available in each fund’s monthly schedule of portfolio holdings at www.schwabfunds.com/prospectus and also available in each fund’s Form N-MFP on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov 60 days after the end of the month to which the information pertains.
 
weighted average maturity (WAM) For money market mutual funds as per rule 2a-7, the maturity date or Effective Maturity Date (see definition of maturity) of all the debt securities in its portfolio, or the date the interest rate on those securities is reset, or the date those securities can be redeemed through demand, calculated as a weighted average. As a rule, the longer a fund’s weighted average maturity, the greater its interest rate risk. Money funds are required to maintain a weighted average maturity of no more than 60 days.
 
yield The income paid out by an investment, expressed as a percentage of the investments market value.

Marie Chandoha is President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. and the funds covered in this report.

 
Dear Shareholder,
 
As President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for allowing us to serve your investment needs, and for reading this important communication concerning the performance of the Schwab money market funds. Although the investment environment has been challenging, recent signs suggest the potential for improvement.
 
During the year ended December 31, 2011, geopolitical unrest, natural disasters, legislative gridlock in the U.S., S&P’s downgrade of long-term U.S. sovereign debt, the euro zone’s ongoing debt crisis, and a shifting outlook regarding economic prospects resulted in a frequently volatile investment environment. Amid the market turbulence, bonds generated solid returns and money market securities continued to help investors preserve their hard-earned capital. On the equity side, U.S. stocks finished mixed after a year that generally favored defensive shares, dividend-paying stocks, and some of the largest blue-chip names. Record corporate profits and historically appealing levels for financial metrics such as price-to-earnings ratios served as part of the backdrop for the stock market’s performance, as did a fourth-quarter rally. The Dow Jones Industrial Average returned 8.38%, outpacing the 2.11% return of the S&P 500 Index, and the -4.18% loss posted by the small-cap Russell 2000 Index.
 
Early year optimism that U.S. economic growth would reach self-sustaining levels ultimately met with disappointing results. Inflation-adjusted U.S. economic activity (real GDP) expanded at a lackluster 0.4% annual pace in the first quarter of 2011. Although growth accelerated to a 2.8% annualized rate in the fourth quarter (advance estimate), the year’s overall level of activity represented a deceleration from the 3.0% pace achieved in 2010. As a result, companies remained reluctant to add employees at a consistently meaningful pace and the unemployment rate hovered around 9.0% for most of 2011, before trending lower during the final months of the year.
 
Attempting to right the unsettled economic landscape, the Federal Reserve (the Fed) implemented a variety of conventional and unconventional monetary operations. On the more conventional side, the Fed kept the federal funds rate target at a historically low 0-0.25%, where rates have held since they were first cut to that level in December 2008. Less conventionally, the Fed completed a second round of quantitative easing in June, purchasing approximately $600 billion of long-term Treasuries over roughly a 10-month period. This effort was designed to spark a faster rate of expansion by keeping long-term interest rates low. In late September, the Fed began “Operation Twist,” an attempt to further reduce long-term interest rates and help the still-troubled U.S. housing sector, while essentially holding short-term rates steady.
 
This collective backdrop paved the way for solid returns by fixed-income securities. U.S. Treasuries turned in particularly strong performances, thanks in part to intermittent bouts of investors looking for a safe haven. The U.S. Treasury sector of the Barclays Aggregate U.S. Bond Index returned 9.81% for the 12 months, the U.S. Agency sector returned 4.82%, and the Corporate sector returned 8.15%, while the longer maturities in each of these categories easily outperformed shorter maturities. The rally also pushed down the yield of the 10-year Treasury bond to only 1.89% by

the end of 2011, marking the first time in more than three decades that the yield on the benchmark bond finished a calendar year below 2.0%.
 
Money market instruments continued to offer a compelling means of achieving capital preservation for investors, even while posting near-zero returns. The historically low interest rate environment and periodic flights to safety drove up demand for short-term, highly liquid investments, a process that further reduced the already low yields on money market securities.

State Investment Environment
 
 
New York
 
The State of New York’s $88 billion state funds budget generally remained in balance through its first three fiscal quarters ending December 2011. Revenues were slightly under budget, primarily due to slower than expected consumption and personal income tax withholding, which will require about $350 million of gap closing actions by fiscal year end. These follow the roughly $9 billion in cuts that were made to balance the current year budget.
 
Governor Andrew Cuomo indicated in his 2013 Executive Budget message that New York faces a roughly $3.5 billion deficit for the upcoming fiscal year beginning April 1, 2012. His budget proposal includes $1.5 billion in new personal income tax revenues and $2 billion in spending cuts, primarily from state agency operations and funding for local assistance.
 
The State’s actions to balance its budget will impact securities issued by the state, but also those issued by counties, cities, towns, villages and school districts, all of whom receive some amount of state funding in support of operations. However, for the first time in several years, the state does not expect to delay aid payments to school districts into its new fiscal year. This will eliminate one pressure with which the schools have had to contend in recent years. However, local governments, including cities, counties and school districts, are grappling with the impact of legislation which has capped local property tax growth to 2% per year unless local voters approve a higher tax rate. This limit on revenue growth has occurred simultaneously with cuts in state aid to these governmental units. Both of these actions will require local governments to reduce their own budgets in order to maintain fiscal stability.
 
There are many state and local agencies, such as the New York Power Authority and the New York City Municipal Water Finance Authority, which do not rely on the state for funding. Securities issued by these agencies are repaid solely with revenues generated by the services these agencies provide to their customers.
 
While New York State’s economy continued to move out of the recession with unemployment of 8.0% in November 2011, below the national average of 8.6%, the financial services sector experienced substantial losses in the third quarter of 2011 which are expected to result in both job losses and lower bonuses for remaining employees. While Wall Street profits impact New York City most directly, there is a significant ripple throughout the downstate region.
 
New York remains a solid investment-grade credit due to its deep and diverse economy and its high personal wealth levels which give it great financial flexibility. As of the date of this report, the state’s general obligation debt was rated Aa2 by Moody’s and AA by both Fitch and Standard & Poor’s. Standard & Poor’s has assigned a positive outlook to the state’s rating.
 
New Jersey
 
New Jersey’s economy grew modestly in the second half of 2011, boosting state revenues to $7.68 billion for the five months ending November 2011. While state revenues were up about 5% over year-ago levels, they were still approximately 2% below budget expectations. Revenues were lower than anticipated in part due to harsh weather conditions including Hurricane Irene, which had a temporary negative impact on retail sales. Weak sales tax revenues were partially offset by a rebound in gross income tax revenues, which were marginally above budget estimates.
 
Growth in income tax revenues has been solid despite job growth that has lagged the nation. As of November 2011, job growth was up a modest 1% from the prior year as private sector job growth was partially offset by continued job cuts in the government sector. The unemployment rate, at 9.1% as of November 2011, declined only marginally versus a year ago, reflecting growth in the number of people re-entering the labor pool. Nevertheless, the state continues to benefit from high personal income levels. State personal income reached a new peak in the third quarter of 2011 and remains among the highest in the United States on a per capita basis.
 
New Jersey’s general obligation debt was rated Aa3 by Moody’s and AA- by Standard & Poor’s and Fitch as of the date of this report. Fitch downgraded the state in August 2011 from AA largely due to factors related to its underfunded pension system and post-retirement benefit obligations, which remain sizable despite pension reform measures approved by the State Legislature in June 2011. All three rating agencies now carry a stable outlook at the current rating levels.
 
Local governments in New Jersey remained under budgetary pressure in 2011 as they contended with continued reductions in state aid and tighter limits on property tax revenue growth. New Jersey municipalities, counties and school districts operate under a state-mandated cap on the amount that they can increase their annual tax levy, subject to certain exclusions. That cap was lowered to 2% from 4% in mid-2010. Similar to New York, local voters may approve a higher tax rate. Local governments are expected to continue facing tight budgets for the remainder of fiscal 2012 as overall state aid funding remains flat under the state budget and property tax growth remains limited by the levy cap.
 
Pennsylvania
 
Pennsylvania’s financial picture showed improvement during fiscal 2011 as Commonwealth revenues exceeded budget, but revenues through the first half of fiscal 2012, ending December 2011, have fallen short of budget threatening to erode the reserve balance built up over the prior fiscal year.
 
 
 
Schwab Municipal Money Funds


 

 
State Investment Environment continued
 
Fiscal 2011 general fund revenue collections were $785.5 million, or 2.9%, above estimate fueled by better than expected collections of sales tax, personal income tax, and corporate tax. Following the solid fiscal 2011 results, the commonwealth’s fiscal 2012 (7/1/11-6/30/12) general fund budget of $27.2 billion assumed a 4.1% drop in state spending as $3.1 billion of federal stimulus funding received in fiscal 2011 was not available in fiscal 2012. Fiscal 2012 general fund revenues were expected to increase by 0.9% from the prior year, however over the first six months of the 2012 fiscal year, tax revenues have been below projections by $345.3 million, or 3.6%, with shortfalls in all major revenue categories. The six-month revenue shortfall threatens to reduce the general fund reserve balance of $1.07 billion at fiscal year end 2011 that was built up from negative $294 million at fiscal year end 2010.
 
Pennsylvania’s unemployment rate continues to compare favorably to the national level and income levels are consistent with the national average. Pennsylvania’s unemployment rate has consistently been better than the national rate over the past four years and improved to 7.9% as of November 2011 compared to the national average of 8.6% for the month. The state’s economy exhibits good employment diversification and while manufacturing remains an important part of the economy, it has fallen in overall and percentage terms over the past decade.
 
As of the date of this report, Pennsylvania’s general obligation debt was rated Aa1 by Moody’s, AA by Standard and Poor’s, and AA+ by Fitch. Both the Moody’s and Fitch ratings carry negative outlooks related to the state’s reduced financial flexibility.
 
There are numerous other municipal debt issuers in Pennsylvania, including state and local government agencies, counties, cities, school districts, colleges and universities, and healthcare providers. Many of these local governmental units, particularly school districts, cities and counties receive some type of state payments or support, and so are impacted by the Commonwealth’s financial condition. However, they all also maintain other unique and diversified revenue streams that account for the majority of their revenues and provide them with additional financial flexibility unrelated to the state’s condition.
 
Massachusetts
 
Massachusetts continued to benefit from its slowly but steadily improving job market. The latter part of 2011 saw modest increases in employment that translated into solid increases in tax revenue, a trend that began in fiscal 2011. Tax revenues in fiscal 2011 totaled $21 billion, or 6% greater than estimated driven by strong personal income tax revenue. This improved performance enabled Massachusetts to deposit over $700 million into its budget stabilization fund that boosted its balance to $1.4 billion, the third largest balance amongst the 50 states, behind Alaska and Texas.
 
Following this strong performance, the first half of fiscal 2012 (7/1/11—6/30/12) was slightly below benchmarks for revenue estimates, although tax revenue collection was stronger than the same period in 2011. For the first six months of fiscal 2012 tax revenues, totaling almost $10 billion, are approximately $252 million greater than the same period in the prior year, the equivalent of a 3% increase.
 
The Commonwealth’s deep and diverse economy is anchored by its well-established base of educational, healthcare, and information technology employment and also includes a variety of finance and real estate-related businesses. Unemployment levels remained below those of the nation and the gap has widened due to Massachusetts’ stronger job growth compared to the nation. In November 2011, the state unemployment rate was 7.0% relative to the nation’s 8.7%, an improvement from the prior November when they were 8.3% and 9.8%, respectively. Income levels also consistently measured at about 125% national averages and are lower only than New Jersey and Connecticut.
 
Massachusetts local governments, along with state agencies, private institutions of higher education and non-profit healthcare providers, also issue tax-exempt debt. While the local governments, primarily cities and school districts, receive some level of state assistance, they also have their own revenue streams that comprise the bulk of their revenues and in many cases, also have dedicated taxes to repay their debt.
 
Massachusetts remained a solid investment-grade credit due to its deep and diverse economy, its high personal-wealth levels, and its solid financial management as demonstrated by its sound financial position. As of the date of this report, the Commonwealth’s credit ratings were Aa1 from Moody’s, AA from Standard & Poor’s, and AA+ from Fitch and were affirmed in December 2011. In September 2011, S&P upgraded its rating from AA.

Schwab New York AMT Tax-Free Money Fund™
 
 
The Schwab New York AMT Tax-Free Money Fund (the fund) seeks the highest current income that is consistent with stability of capital and liquidity, and is exempt from federal and New York state and local income tax. To pursue its goal, the fund invests in municipal money market securities from New York issuers and municipal agencies around the country, as well as from U.S. territories and possessions.
 
The fund’s investment adviser and its affiliates voluntarily waived certain fees or expenses for the 12 months ended December 31, 2011, to help the fund maintain a positive net yield and a net asset value of $1.00 per share.* For more information about the fund’s yield and other important characteristics, please review the charts and footnotes that follow this discussion.
 
Market Highlights. In a year fraught with volatility and extraordinary events (discussed in the President’s Letter on page 3), the supply of short-term municipal securities declined, while softer demand helped the market achieve an uneasy balance. One source that decreased the availability of securities came from municipalities that locked in affordable long-term financing by issuing bonds, rather than shorter-term securities (which require more frequent replacement at prevailing rates). The euro zone’s ongoing credit crisis and Japan’s tsunami also crimped supply by reducing the number of companies able to provide top-quality credit enhancements to short-term municipal borrowers. The growing use of direct loans between banks and municipalities—a developing trend—reduced supply as well.
 
On the demand side, non-traditional municipal investors that move large volumes of money to take advantage of perceived interest rate opportunities heavily influenced the market early in the year. A reduction in the supply of short-term Treasury bills combined with the more stringent requirements for extremely liquid securities to be held by taxable money market funds also enhanced the comparative appeal of municipal money market securities.
 
Yields of municipal money market securities continued to decline in that environment, as already rock bottom rates were squeezed lower still. Illustrating this outcome, the Security Industry and Financial Markets Association Municipal Swap Index—a widely used benchmark for municipal floating-rate securities—averaged between 0.23% and 0.30% early in 2011, but fell steadily after August to end the year at roughly 0.10%.
 
Positioning and Strategies. Given the market environment described above, the investment adviser focused on safety and high credit quality, while keeping the fund’s weighted average maturity (WAM) longer than many other municipal money market funds throughout 2011. Within that strategy, the fund’s WAM was kept particularly long through March to help cushion the impact of volatile but relatively range-bound yields. Later in the year the fund’s WAM stayed within a narrow range due to the intermittent availability and issuance of attractively priced fixed-rate municipal notes that carried state tax exemptions.

2 Minimum initial investment for IRA and custodial accounts is $15,000. Municipal money funds are generally not appropriate investments for IRAs and other tax-deferred accounts. Please consult with your tax advisor about your situation.
3 Yield reflects the effect of the fund’s agreement with the investment adviser and its affiliates to limit each share class’s total annual operating expenses to certain levels (contractual expense limitation). In addition, the investment adviser and its affiliates have voluntarily waived expenses in excess of the contractual expense limitation to maintain a positive net yield for certain share classes of the fund (voluntary expense waiver). Without the contractual expense limitation and the voluntary expense waiver, the fund’s yield would have been lower. For additional details, see financial note 5.
4 Yield does not reflect the effect of the contractual expense limitation, but does reflect the effect of the voluntary expense waiver. The voluntary expense waiver added 0.48% and 0.28% to the seven-day yields of the Sweep Shares and Value Advantage Shares, respectively.

2 Yield reflects the effect of the fund’s agreement with the investment adviser and its affiliates to limit each share class’s total annual operating expenses to certain levels (contractual expense limitation). In addition, the investment adviser and its affiliates have voluntarily waived expenses in excess of the contractual expense limitation to maintain a positive net yield for the fund (voluntary expense waiver). Without the contractual expense limitation and the voluntary expense waiver, the fund’s yield would have been lower. For additional details, see financial note 5.
3 Yield does not reflect the effect of the contractual expense limitation, but does reflect the effect of the voluntary expense waiver. The voluntary expense waiver added 0.48% to the seven-day yield.
4 Taxable-equivalent effective yield assumes a 2011 maximum combined federal regular income and New Jersey state personal income tax rate of 40.83%. Investment income may be subject to the Alternative Minimum Tax.

Schwab Pennsylvania Municipal Money Fund™
 
 
The Schwab Pennsylvania Municipal Money Fund (the fund) seeks the highest current income that is consistent with stability of capital and liquidity, and is exempt from federal and Pennsylvania personal income tax. To pursue its goal, the fund invests in municipal money market securities from Pennsylvania issuers and municipal agencies around the country, as well as from U.S. territories and possessions.
 
The fund’s investment adviser and its affiliates voluntarily waived certain fees or expenses for the 12 months ended December 31, 2011, to help the fund maintain a positive net yield and a net asset value of $1.00 per share.* For more information about the fund’s yield and other important characteristics, please review the charts and footnotes that follow this discussion.
 
Market Highlights. In a year fraught with volatility and extraordinary events (discussed in the President’s Letter on page 3), the supply of short-term municipal securities declined, while softer demand helped the market achieve an uneasy balance. One source that decreased the availability of securities came from municipalities that locked in affordable long-term financing by issuing bonds, rather than shorter-term securities (which require more frequent replacement at prevailing rates). The euro zone’s ongoing credit crisis and Japan’s tsunami also crimped supply by reducing the number of companies able to provide top-quality credit enhancements to short-term municipal borrowers. The growing use of direct loans between banks and municipalities—a developing trend—reduced supply as well.
 
On the demand side, non-traditional municipal investors that move large volumes of money to take advantage of perceived interest rate opportunities heavily influenced the market early in the year. A reduction in the supply of short-term Treasury bills combined with the more stringent requirements for extremely liquid securities to be held by taxable money market funds also enhanced the comparative appeal of municipal money market securities.
 
Yields of municipal money market securities continued to decline in that environment, as already rock bottom rates were squeezed lower still. Illustrating this outcome, the Security Industry and Financial Markets Association Municipal Swap Index—a widely used benchmark for municipal floating-rate securities—averaged between 0.23% and 0.30% early in 2011, but fell steadily after August to end the year at roughly 0.10%.
 
Positioning and Strategies. Given the market environment described above, the investment adviser focused on safety and high credit quality, while keeping the fund’s weighted average maturity (WAM) longer than many other municipal money market funds throughout 2011. Within that strategy, the fund’s WAM was kept particularly long through mid-April to help cushion the impact of volatile but relatively range-bound yields. Later in the year the fund’s WAM stayed within a narrow range due to the intermittent availability and issuance of attractively priced fixed-rate municipal notes that carried state tax exemptions.

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
 
 Examples for a $1,000 Investment
 
As a fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: transaction costs, such as redemption fees; and, ongoing costs, such as management fees, transfer agent and shareholder services fees, and other fund expenses.
 
The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare this cost with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for six months beginning July 1, 2011 and held through December 31, 2011.
 
Actual Return lines in the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value ¸ $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund or share class under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period.”
 
Hypothetical Return lines in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a fund’s or share class’ actual expense ratio and an assumed return of 5% per year before expenses. Because the return used is not an actual return, it may not be used to estimate the actual ending account value or expenses you paid for the period.
 
You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
 
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only, and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees. If these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Portfolio Holdings as of December 31, 2011
 
 
This section shows all the securities in the fund’s portfolio and their values as of the report date.
 
The fund files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarter of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. The fund’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be viewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C. Call 1-800-SEC-0330 for information on the operation of the Public Reference Room. The fund also files a complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC monthly on Form N-MFP which is available 60 days after the end of the month to which the information pertains. A monthly schedule of portfolio holdings is also available by visiting the fund’s website at www.schwabfunds.com/prospectus along with a link to the fund’s Form N-MFP filings on the SEC’s website.
 
For fixed rate obligations, the rate shown is the coupon rate (the rate established when the obligation was issued) and if the coupon rate is not available, the effective yield at the time of purchase is shown. For variable-rate obligations, the rate shown is the interest rate as of the report date. If the security’s structure includes one of a number of maturity-shortening provisions set forth in Rule 2a-7, such as an interest rate reset, demand feature or put feature, the effective maturity date is disclosed. In addition, the second maturity date shown is either the date on which the principal amount must be paid or the date payment must be made pursuant to a demand feature. If the effective maturity and maturity date are the same, the date will appear in the maturity date column.

Portfolio Holdings as of December 31, 2011
 
 
This section shows all the securities in the fund’s portfolio and their values as of the report date.
 
The fund files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarter of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. The fund’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be viewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C. Call 1-800-SEC-0330 for information on the operation of the Public Reference Room.

A monthly schedule of portfolio holdings is also available by visiting the fund’s website at www.schwabfunds.com/prospectus along with a link to the fund’s Form N-MFP filings on the SEC’s website.
 
For fixed rate obligations, the rate shown is the coupon rate (the rate established when the obligation was issued) and if the coupon rate is not available, the effective yield at the time of purchase is shown. For variable-rate obligations, the rate shown is the interest rate as of the report date. If the security’s structure includes one of a number of maturity-shortening provisions set forth in Rule 2a-7, such as an interest rate reset, demand feature or put feature, the effective maturity date is disclosed. In addition, the second maturity date shown is either the date on which the principal amount must be paid or the date payment must be made pursuant to a demand feature. If the effective maturity and maturity date are the same, the date will appear in the maturity date column.

This section shows all the securities in the fund’s portfolio and their values as of the report date.
 
The fund files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarter of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. The fund’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be viewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C.

A monthly schedule of portfolio holdings is also available by visiting the fund’s website at www.schwabfunds.com/prospectus along with a link to the fund’s Form N-MFP filings on the SEC’s website.
 
For fixed rate obligations, the rate shown is the coupon rate (the rate established when the obligation was issued) and if the coupon rate is not available, the effective yield at the time of purchase is shown. For variable-rate obligations, the rate shown is the interest rate as of the report date. If the security’s structure includes one of a number of maturity-shortening provisions set forth in Rule 2a-7, such as an interest rate reset, demand feature or put feature, the effective maturity date is disclosed. In addition, the second maturity date shown is either the date on which the principal amount must be paid or the date payment must be made pursuant to a demand feature. If the effective maturity and maturity date are the same, the date will appear in the maturity date column.

Portfolio Holdings as of December 31, 2011
 
 
This section shows all the securities in the fund’s portfolio and their values as of the report date.
 
The fund files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarter of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. The fund’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be viewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C. Call 1-800-SEC-0330 for information on the operation of the Public Reference Room. The fund also files a complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC monthly on Form N-MFP which is available 60 days after the end of the month to which the information pertains. A monthly schedule of portfolio holdings is also available by visiting the fund’s website at www.schwabfunds.com/prospectus along with a link to the fund’s Form N-MFP filings on the SEC’s website.
 
For fixed rate obligations, the rate shown is the coupon rate (the rate established when the obligation was issued) and if the coupon rate is not available, the effective yield at the time of purchase is shown. For variable-rate obligations, the rate shown is the interest rate as of the report date. If the security’s structure includes one of a number of maturity-shortening provisions set forth in Rule 2a-7, such as an interest rate reset, demand feature or put feature, the effective maturity date is disclosed. In addition, the second maturity date shown is either the date on which the principal amount must be paid or the date payment must be made pursuant to a demand feature. If the effective maturity and maturity date are the same, the date will appear in the maturity date column.

1. Business Structure of the Funds:
 
Each of the funds discussed in this report is a series of The Charles Schwab Family of Funds (the “trust”), a no-load, open-end management investment company. The trust is organized as a Massachusetts business trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The list below shows all the funds in the trust as of the end of the period, including the funds discussed in this report, which are highlighted:
 
         
 
The Charles Schwab Family of Funds (organized October 20, 1989)
 
Schwab Municipal Money Fund
   
Schwab Money Market Fund
 
Schwab AMT Tax-Free Money Fund
   
Schwab Government Money Fund

Schwab Retirement Advantage Money Fund
 
Schwab Massachusetts AMT Tax-Free Money Fund
   
Schwab Investor Money Fund
       
 
 
Schwab New York AMT Tax-Free Money Fund offers two share classes: Sweep Shares and Value Advantage Shares. Shares of each class represent interest in the same portfolio, but each class has different expenses and investment minimums. Schwab New Jersey AMT Tax-Free Money Fund, Schwab Pennsylvania Municipal Money Fund, and Schwab Massachusetts AMT Tax-Free Money Fund each offer one share class: Sweep Shares.
 
Shares are bought and sold at closing net asset value (“NAV”), which is the price for all outstanding shares of the funds. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the Board of Trustees may authorize the issuance of as many shares as necessary.
 
Each fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, each fund may also keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities law.
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
 
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the funds use in their preparation of financial statements. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
 
(a) Security Valuation:
 
Securities in the funds are valued at amortized cost (which approximates market value) as permitted in accordance with Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act. In the event that security valuations do not approximate market value, securities may be valued as determined in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees.
 
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the funds disclose the fair value of their investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). If the funds determine that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to estimate fair value.
 
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
 
  •  Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities — Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and whose values are therefore classified as Level 1 prices, include active listed equities. The funds do not adjust the quoted prices for such investments, even in situations where the funds hold a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted prices.
 
  •  Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) — Investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but whose values are based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or valuations provided by alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified as Level 2 prices. These generally include U.S. government and sovereign obligations, most

 Schwab Municipal Money Funds
 

 
Financial Notes (continued)
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
  government agency securities, investment-grade corporate bonds, certain mortgage products, less liquid listed equities, and state, municipal and provincial obligations. As investments whose values are classified as Level 2 prices include positions that are not traded in active markets and/or are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations may be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, which are generally based on available market information. Securities held by money funds operating under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act are valued at amortized cost which approximates current market value and are considered to be valued using Level 2 inputs.
 
  •  Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) — Investments whose values are classified as Level 3 prices have significant unobservable inputs, as they may trade infrequently or not at all. When observable prices are not available for these securities, the funds use one or more valuation techniques for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used by the funds in estimating the value of Level 3 prices may include the original transaction price, quoted prices for similar securities or assets in active markets, completed or pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows. Level 3 prices may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by the funds in the absence of market information. Assumptions used by the funds due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the funds’ results of operations.
 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. At December 31, 2011, all of the funds’ investment securities were classified as Level 2. The breakdown of the funds’ investments into major categories is disclosed on the portfolio holdings.
 
The funds’ policy is to recognize transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 as of the beginning of the fiscal year. There were no significant transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 for the period ended December 31, 2011.
 
(b) Accounting Policies for certain Portfolio Investments (if held):
 
Delayed-Delivery Transactions: The funds may buy securities at a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place after the customary settlement period for that type of security. The funds will assume the rights and risks of ownership at the time of purchase, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations. Typically, no interest will accrue to a fund until the security is delivered. The funds will earmark or segregate appropriate liquid assets to cover its delayed-delivery purchase obligations.
 
(c) Security Transactions:
 
Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains or losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved.
 
(d) Investment Income:
 
Interest income is recorded as it accrues. If a fund buys a debt security at a discount (less than face value) or a premium (more than face value), it amortizes the discount or premium from the current date up to maturity. The fund then increases (in the case of discounts) or reduces (in the case of premiums) the income it records from the security. If the security is callable (meaning that the issuer has the option to pay it off before its maturity date), then the fund amortizes the premium to the security’s call date and price, rather than the maturity date and price.
 
(e) Expenses:
 
Expenses that are specific to a fund are charged directly to the fund. Expenses that are common to all funds within the trust generally are allocated among the funds in proportion to their average daily net assets.
 
For funds offering multiple share classes, the net investment income, other than class specific expenses, and the realized and unrealized gains or losses, are allocated daily to each class in proportion to their average daily net assets.

 Schwab Municipal Money Funds
 

 
Financial Notes (continued)
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
(f) Distributions to Shareholders:
 
The funds declare distributions from net investment income, if any, every day they are open for business. These distributions, which are substantially equal to the funds’ net investment income for that day, are paid out to shareholders once a month. The funds make distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, once a year.
 
(g) Custody Credit:
 
The funds have an arrangement with their custodian bank, State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”), under which the funds receive a credit for their uninvested cash balance to offset their custody fees and accounting fees. The credit amounts, if any, are disclosed in the Statement of Operations as a reduction to the funds’ operating expenses.
 
(h) Accounting Estimates:
 
The accounting policies described in this report conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It’s possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates and these differences may be material.
 
(i) Federal Income Taxes:
 
The funds intend to meet federal income and excise tax requirements for regulated investment companies. Accordingly, the funds distribute substantially all of their net investment income and realized net capital gains, if any, to their respective shareholders each year. As long as a fund meets the tax requirements, it is not required to pay federal income tax.
 
(j) Indemnification:
 
Under the funds’ organizational documents, the officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal course of business the funds enter into contracts with their vendors and others that provide general indemnifications. The funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the funds. However, based on experience, the funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
 
(k) New Accounting Pronouncements:
 
In April 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) related to accounting for repurchase agreements and similar agreements that both entitle and obligate a transferor to repurchase or redeem financial assets before their maturity. The ASU modifies the criteria for determining effective control of transferred assets and as a result certain agreements may now be accounted for as secured borrowings. The ASU is effective prospectively for new and existing transfers that are modified in the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011.
 
In May 2011, the FASB issued an update to requirements relating to “Fair Value Measurement which represents amendments to achieve common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in US GAAP and IFRS.” The amendments include (i) those that clarify the FASB’s intent about the application of existing fair value measurement and disclosure requirements and (ii) those that change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. The amendments that change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or disclosing information about fair value measurements relate to (i) measuring the fair value of the financial instruments that are managed within a portfolio; (ii) application of premium and discount in a fair value measurement; and (iii) additional disclosures about fair value measurements. The update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 with early adoption prohibited.
 
At this time, management is evaluating the implications of these changes and their impact on the financial statements.
 
3. Credit and Liquidity Enhancements:
 
A substantial portion of the funds’ investments are in securities with credit enhancements and/or liquidity enhancements from financial institutions or corporations. These enhancements are employed by the issuers of the securities to reduce credit risk

4. Risk Factors:
 
An investment in a fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the funds seek to preserve the value of a shareholder’s investment at $1 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the funds.
 
Interest rates rise and fall over time. As with any investment whose yield reflects current interest rates, a fund’s yield will change over time. During periods when interest rates are low, a fund’s yield (and total return) also will be low. In addition, to the extent a fund makes any reimbursement payments to the investment adviser and/or its affiliates, the fund’s yield would be lower.
 
A fund is subject to the risk that a decline in the credit quality of a portfolio investment could cause the fund to lose money or underperform. A fund could lose money if the issuer of a portfolio investment fails to make timely principal or interest payments or if a guarantor or liquidity provider of a portfolio investment fails to honor its obligations. For fixed rate investments, the negative perceptions of the ability of an issuer, guarantor or liquidity provider to make such payments or otherwise honor its obligations, as applicable, could also cause the price of that investment to decline. The credit quality of a fund’s portfolio holdings can change rapidly in certain market environments and any downgrade or default on the part of a single portfolio investment could cause the fund’s share price or yield to fall. The fund’s investments in securities with credit or liquidity enhancements provided by foreign entities may involve certain risks that are greater than those associated with investments in securities with credit or liquidity enhancement provided by U.S. entities. These include risks of adverse changes in foreign economic, political, regulatory and other conditions; differing accounting, auditing, financial reporting and legal standards and practices; differing securities market structures; and higher transaction costs. In addition, sovereign risk, or the risk that a government may become unwilling or unable to meet its loan obligations or guarantees, could increase the credit risk of financial institutions connected to that particular country.
 
Any actively managed mutual fund is subject to the risk that its investment adviser will make poor security selections. A fund’s investment adviser applies its own investment techniques and risk analyses in making investment decisions for the fund, but there can be no guarantee that they will produce the desired results. The investment adviser’s maturity decisions will also affect a fund’s yield, and in unusual circumstances potentially could affect its share price. To the extent that the investment adviser anticipates interest rate trends imprecisely, a fund’s yield at times could lag those of other money market funds.
 
State and regional factors could affect a fund’s performance. To the extent that a fund invests in securities from a given state or geographic region, its share price and performance could be affected by local, state and regional factors, including erosion of the tax base and changes in the economic climate. Certain state constitutional amendments, legislative measures, executive orders, administrative regulations and voter initiatives could result in adverse consequences affecting the state and/or its municipalities. National governmental actions, such as elimination of tax-exempt status, also could affect performance. To the extent that a fund invests a substantial portion of its assets in municipal securities financing similar projects, the fund may be more sensitive to adverse economic, business or political developments. A change that affects one project, such as proposed legislation on the
 
 
 
54 


 

 
 Schwab Municipal Money Funds
 

 
Financial Notes (continued)
 
4. Risk Factors (continued):
 
financing of the project, a shortage of materials needed for the project, or a declining need for the project, would likely affect all similar projects and the overall municipal securities market.
 
Some of a fund’s income could be taxable. If certain types of investments a fund buys as tax-exempt are later ruled to be taxable, a portion of the fund’s income could become taxable. This risk, although generally considered low, is somewhat higher for investments that have been structured as municipal money market securities than for other types of municipal money market securities. Any defensive investments in taxable securities or securities whose interest is subject to the AMT could generate taxable income.
 
Liquidity risk exists when particular investments are difficult to purchase or sell. The market for certain investments may become illiquid due to specific adverse changes in the conditions of a particular issuer or under adverse market or economic conditions independent of the issuer. A fund’s investments in illiquid securities may reduce the returns of the fund because it may be unable to sell the illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price. Further, transactions in illiquid securities may entail transactions costs that are higher than those for transactions in liquid securities.
 
A fund may experience periods of heavy redemptions that could cause the fund to liquidate its assets at inopportune times or at a loss or depressed value, particularly during periods of declining or illiquid markets. Redemptions by a few large investors in a fund may have a significant adverse effect on the fund’s ability to maintain a stable $1.00 share price. In the event any money market fund fails to maintain a stable net asset value, other money market funds, including the funds, could face a market-wide risk of increased redemption pressures, potentially jeopardizing the stability of their $1.00 share prices.
 
The funds are not designed to offer capital appreciation. In exchange for their emphasis on stability and liquidity, money market investments may offer lower long-term performance than stock or bond investments.
 
Please refer to the funds’ prospectus for a more complete description of the principal risks of investing in the funds.
 
5. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions:
 
Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (“CSIM” or the “investment adviser”), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Charles Schwab Corporation, serves as each fund’s investment adviser and administrator pursuant to an Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement (“Advisory Agreement”) between CSIM and the trust.
 
For its advisory and administrative services to the funds, CSIM is entitled to receive an annual fee, payable monthly, based on a percentage of each fund’s average daily net assets as follows:
 
         
Average Daily Net Assets
   
 
First $1 billion
    0.35%  
More than $1 billion but not exceeding $10 billion
    0.32%  
More than $10 billion but not exceeding $20 billion
    0.30%  
More than $20 billion but not exceeding $40 billion
    0.27%  
Over $40 billion
    0.25%  
 
The Board of Trustees has adopted a Shareholder Servicing and Sweep Administration Plan (the “Plan”) on behalf of the funds. The Plan enables each fund to bear expenses relating to the provision by service providers, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (a broker-dealer affiliate of CSIM, “Schwab”), of certain account maintenance, customer liaison and shareholder services to the current shareholders of the funds. Schwab serves as the funds’ paying agent under the Plan for making payments of the shareholder service fee due to the service providers (other than Schwab) under the Plan. All shareholder service fees paid by the funds to Schwab in its capacity as the funds’ paying agent will be passed through to the service providers, and Schwab will not retain any portion of such fees. The Plan also enables the funds to pay Schwab for certain sweep administration services, such as processing of automatic purchases and redemptions it provides to fund shareholders invested in the funds.
 
Pursuant to the Plan, each fund’s shares are subject to an annual shareholder servicing fee and an annual sweep administration fee up to the amount set forth in the table below. The shareholder servicing fee paid to a particular service provider is made pursuant to its written agreement with Schwab (or, in the case of payments made to Schwab, pursuant to Schwab’s written agreement with the funds), and the funds will pay no more than the amounts listed in the table below of the average annual daily net asset value of the funds shares owned by shareholders holding shares through such service providers. The sweep

5. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions (continued):
 
administration fee paid to Schwab is based on the average daily net asset value of the fund shares owned by shareholders holding shares through Schwab. Payments under the Plan are made as described above regardless of Schwab’s or the service provider’s actual cost of providing the services. If the cost of providing the services under the Plan is less than the payments received, the unexpended portion of the fees may be retained as profit by Schwab or the service provider.

Contractual Expense Limitation
 
Although these agreements specify certain fees for these services, CSIM and Schwab have made an additional agreement (“expense limitation”) with each fund, for so long as CSIM serves as the investment adviser to the funds, which may only be amended or terminated with the approval of the funds’ Board of Trustees, to limit the total annual fund operating expenses, excluding interest, taxes, and certain non-routine expenses, as follows:

In addition, effective January 1, 2011 through December 31, 2011, CSIM and Schwab agreed to waive an additional amount of the funds’ expenses equal to 0.005% of the funds’ average daily assets.
 
Voluntary Expense Waiver/Reimbursement
 
In addition to the contractual expense limitation agreements noted above, Schwab and the investment adviser also may waive and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to maintain a positive net yield for each fund or each class of a fund. Schwab and the investment adviser may recapture from a fund any of these expenses or fees they have waived and/or reimbursed until the third anniversary of the end of the fiscal year in which such waiver and/or reimbursement occurs, subject to certain limitations. The reimbursement payments by a fund to Schwab and/or the investment adviser are considered “non-routine expenses” and are not subject to any net operating expense limitations in effect at the time of such payment. This recapture could negatively affect a fund’s future yield. There were no prior year amounts recaptured. As of December 31, 2011, the balance of recoupable expenses is as follows:

The funds may engage in direct transactions with certain other Schwab Funds when practical. When one fund is seeking to sell a security that another is seeking to buy, an interfund transaction can allow both funds to benefit by reducing transaction costs.

5. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions (continued):
 
This practice is limited to funds that share the same investment adviser, trustees and/or officers. For the period ended December 31, 2011, each fund’s total aggregate security transactions with other Schwab Funds were as follows:
 
         
Schwab New York AMT Tax-Free Money Fund
    $371,755,863  
Schwab New Jersey AMT Tax-Free Money Fund
    167,065,000  
Schwab Pennsylvania Municipal Money Fund
    184,170,000  
Schwab Massachusetts AMT Tax-Free Money Fund
    91,528,206  
 
Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the funds may enter into interfund borrowing and lending transactions with other Schwab Funds. All loans are for temporary or emergency purposes only. The interest rate charged on the loan is the average of the overnight repurchase agreement rate and the short-term bank loan rate. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review of the Board of Trustees of the Schwab Funds. The funds had no interfund borrowing or lending activity during the period.
 
6. Transfer Agent Services:
 
Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. (“BFDS”) provides transfer agent services for each fund.
 
7. Board of Trustees:
 
Trustees may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The trust did not pay any of these interested persons for their services as trustees, but it did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted in each fund’s Statement of Operations.
 
8. Borrowing from Banks:
 
The funds have access to custodian overdraft facilities, a committed line of credit of $150 million with State Street Bank and Trust (“State Street”), an uncommitted line of credit of $100 million with Bank of America, N.A. and an uncommitted line of credit of $50 million with Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. The funds pay interest on the amounts they borrow at rates that are negotiated periodically. The funds also pay an annual fee to State Street for the committed line of credit.
 
There were no borrowings from the lines of credit by the funds during the period. However, the funds may have utilized their overdraft facility and incurred interest expense, which is disclosed in the Statement of Operations, if any. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.
 
9. Federal Income Taxes:
 
As of December 31, 2011, the funds had no distributable earnings on a tax basis.
 
Capital loss carryforwards may be used to offset future realized capital gains, for federal income tax purposes. As of December 31, 2011, the following funds had capital loss carryforwards available to offset future net capital gains before the expiration dates:

For tax purposes, realized net capital losses incurred after October 31 may be deferred and treated as occurring on the first day of the following year. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the funds had no capital losses deferred and no capital losses utilized.

Long-term capital gains
    456,379       38,038       27,889       106,463  
 
Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income and net realized gains determined on a tax basis, which may differ from net investment income and net realized gains for financial reporting purposes; there were no such differences in the current year. The fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year in which the net investment income and net realized gains are recorded by the funds for financial reporting purposes. The funds may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.
 
Permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between capital account and other accounts as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. As of December 31, 2011, the funds made the following reclassifications:

As of December 31, 2011, management has reviewed the tax positions for open periods (for federal purposes, three years from the date of filing and for state purposes, four years from the date of filing) as applicable to the funds, and has determined that no provision for income tax is required in the funds’ financial statements. The funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period ended December 31, 2011, the funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
 
On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (“the Act”) was signed by the President. The Act is the first major piece of legislation affecting Regulated Investment Companies (“RICs”) since 1986 and it modernizes several of the federal income and excise tax provisions related to RICs.
 
Certain of the enacted provisions include:
 
Post-enactment capital losses may now be carried forward indefinitely, but must retain the character of the original loss. Under pre-enactment law, capital losses could be carried forward for eight years, and carried forward as short-term capital, irrespective of the character of the original loss. The Act contains simplification provisions, which are aimed at preventing disqualification of a RIC for “inadvertent” failures of the asset diversification and/or qualifying income tests. Additionally, the Act exempts RICs from the preferential dividend rule, and repeals the 60-day designation requirement for certain types of pay-through income and gains.
 
Finally, the Act contains several provisions aimed at preserving the character of distributions made by a fiscal year RIC during the portion of its taxable year ending after October 31 or December 31, reducing the circumstances under which a RIC might be required to file amended Forms 1099 to restate previously reported distributions.

Except for the simplification provisions related to RIC qualification, the Act is effective for taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010. The provisions related to RIC qualification are effective for taxable years for which the extended due date of the tax return is after December 22, 2010.

To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of:
Schwab New York AMT Tax-Free Money Fund
Schwab New Jersey AMT Tax-Free Money Fund
Schwab Pennsylvania Municipal Money Fund
Schwab Massachusetts AMT Tax-Free Money Fund
 
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio holdings, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Schwab New York AMT Tax-Free Money Fund, Schwab New Jersey AMT Tax-Free Money Fund, Schwab Pennsylvania Municipal Money Fund and Schwab Massachusetts AMT Tax-Free Money Fund (four of the portfolios constituting The Charles Schwab Family of Funds, hereafter referred to as the “Funds”) at December 31, 2011, and the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2011 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

1 Trustees remain in office until they resign, retire or are removed by shareholder vote. The Schwab Funds® retirement policy requires that independent trustees elected after January 1, 2000 retire at age 72 or after twenty years as a trustee, whichever comes first. In addition, the Schwab Funds retirement policy also requires any independent trustee of the Schwab Funds who also serves as an independent trustee of the Laudus Funds to retire from the Boards of the Schwab Funds upon their required retirement date from either the Boards of Trustees of the Schwab Funds or the Laudus Funds, whichever comes first.
2 Mr. Schwab and Mr. Bettinger are Interested Trustees because they are employees of Schwab and/or the investment adviser. In addition to their employment with Schwab and/or the investment adviser, Messrs. Schwab and Bettinger also own stock of The Charles Schwab Corporation.

Glossary
 
 
Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) A federal income tax designed to limit the extent to which high-income taxpayers (including individuals, estates, trusts and corporations) can benefit from certain deductions and exemptions. For example, some types of income that are exempt from regular federal income tax are not exempt from the AMT.
 
Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index A broad-based benchmark that measures the investment grade, U.S. dollar-denominated, fixed-rate taxable bond market, including Treasuries, government-related and corporate securities, mortgage-back securities (agency fixed-rate and hybrid ARM passthroughs), asset-backed securities, and commercial mortgage-backed securities.
 
Barclays Capital U.S. TIPS Index (Series-L) A rules-based, market value-weighted index that tracks inflation-protected securities issued by the U.S. Treasury that have at least one year remaining to maturity, are rated investment grade and have $250 million or more of outstanding face value.
 
bond A security representing a loan from the investor to the issuer. A bond typically pays interest at a fixed rate (the “coupon rate”) until a specified date (the “maturity date”), at which time the issuer returns the money borrowed (“principal” or “face value”) to the bond holder. Because of their structure, bonds are sometimes called “fixed income securities” or “debt securities.” An individual bond is subject to the credit risk of the issuer. Changes in interest rates can affect a bond’s market value prior to call or maturity. There is no guarantee that a bond’s yield to call or maturity will provide a positive return over the rate of inflation.
 
bond anticipation notes Obligations sold by a state or local government on a short-term basis in anticipation of the issuance of a longer-term bond in the future.
 
capital gain, capital loss The difference between the amount paid for an investment and its value at a later time. If the investment has been sold, the capital gain or loss is considered a realized gain or loss. If the investment is still held, the gain or loss is still “on paper” and is considered unrealized.
 
commercial paper Promissory notes issued by banks, corporations and other entities to finance short-term credit needs. These securities generally are structured on a discounted basis but sometimes may be interest-bearing notes. Commercial paper, which may be unsecured, is subject to credit risk.
 
credit-enhanced securities Securities that are backed by the credit of an entity other than the issuer (such as a financial institution). Credit enhancements, which can equal up to 100% of the security’s value, are designed to help lower the risk of default on a security and may also make the security more liquid.
 
credit quality The capacity of an issuer to make its interest and principal payments. Federal regulations strictly regulate the credit quality of the securities a money market fund can buy.
 
credit ratings Debt issuers, including corporations, states and municipalities, may arrange with a recognized independent rating organization, such as Standard & Poor’s, Fitch, Inc. and Moody’s Investor Service, to rate their creditworthiness and/or the creditworthiness of their debt issues. For example, an issuer may obtain a long-term rating within the investment grade rating category, which is, from high to low, AAA, AA, A and BBB for Standard & Poor’s and Fitch, and Aaa, Aa, A and Baa for Moody’s.
 
credit risk The risk that a debt issuer may be unable to pay interest or repay principal to its debt holders.
 
dollar-weighted average maturity (DWAM) See weighted average maturity.
 
effective yield A measurement of a fund’s yield that assumes that all interest income is reinvested in additional shares of the fund.
 
expense ratio The amount that is taken from a mutual fund’s assets each year to cover the fund’s operating expenses. An expense ratio of 0.50% means that a fund’s expenses amount to half of one percent of its average net assets for the year.
 
face value The value of a bond, note, mortgage or other security as given on the certificate or instrument. Face value is also referred to as par value or nominal value.
 
fixed rate notes A security with a fixed rate or coupon and a short maturity (typically within thirteen months). For example, bond, revenue or tax anticipation notes.
 
illiquid securities Securities are generally considered illiquid if they cannot be disposed of promptly (typically within seven days) and in the ordinary course of business at approximately the amount at which a fund has valued the instruments.
 
interest Payments to holders of debt securities as compensation for loaning a security’s principal to the issuer.
 
liquidity-enhanced security The security’s structure includes a liquidity arrangement that requires an entity other than the issuer (such as a large financial institution) to provide funds to pay a tender under most circumstances. Liquidity enhancements are often used on variable-rate securities where the portfolio manager has an option to tender the securities for repayment within a specified time period (usually one day or one week) at any time prior to their final maturity.
 
maturity The date a debt security is scheduled to be “retired” and its principal amount repaid. The Maturity of an investment will generally reflect the security’s final maturity date unless the security’s structure includes a maturity-shortening provision such as an interest rate reset, demand feature or put feature (the “Effective Maturity Date”). For those securities with a maturity-shortening provision, including variable-rate demand securities, the Maturity is determined by using the Effective Maturity Date, as permitted by Rule 2a-7.
 
money market securities High-quality, short-term debt securities that may be issued by states and local governments and their agencies. Money market securities must have an effective maturity of no longer than 397 days. Examples include bond and tax anticipation notes, commercial paper, variable-rate demand obligations and tender option bonds.
 
MSCI EAFE (Europe, Australasia, Far East) Index A free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets, excluding the US & Canada.
 
municipal securities Debt securities issued by a state, its counties, municipalities, authorities and other subdivisions, or the territories and possessions of the United States and the District of Columbia, including their subdivisions, agencies and instrumentalities and corporations. These securities may be issued to obtain money for various public purposes, including the construction of a wide range of public facilities such as
 
 
 
66 


 

airports, bridges, highways, housing, hospitals, mass transportation, public utilities, schools, streets, and water and sewer works.
 
net asset value per share (NAV) The value of one share of a mutual fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets, subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding. Money funds seek to maintain a steady NAV of $1.00.
 
outstanding shares, shares outstanding When speaking of a company or mutual fund, indicates all shares currently held by investors.
 
restricted securities Securities that are subject to contractual restrictions on resale. These securities are often purchased in private placement transactions.
 
revenue anticipation notes Obligations that are issued in expectation of the receipt of revenue, such as income taxes, property taxes, etc.
 
S&P 500 Index A market capitalization index that is designed to measure the performance of 500 leading publicly held companies in leading industries of the U.S. economy.
 
section 3c7 securities Section 3c7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) exempts certain issuers from many regulatory requirements applicable to investment companies under the 1940 Act. An issuer whose outstanding securities are exclusively owned by “qualified purchasers” and who is not making or proposing to make a public offering of the securities may qualify for this exemption.
 
section 4(2)/144A securities Securities exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. These securities may be sold only to qualified institutional buyers under Securities Act Rule 144A.
 
taxable-equivalent yield The yield an investor would need to get from a taxable investment in order to match the yield paid by a given tax-exempt investment, once the effect of all applicable taxes is taken into account. For example, if your tax rate were 25%, a tax-exempt investment paying 4.5% would have a taxable-equivalent yield for you of 6.0% (4.5% ¸ [1 − 0.25%] = 6.0%).
 
tax anticipation notes Notes that typically are sold to finance the cash flow needs of municipalities in anticipation of the receipt of taxes on a future date.
 
tender option bond A security which is created by a financial institution by combining a long-term municipal bond with a liquidity facility which converts the long-term bond into a money-market eligible security. Tender option bonds are issued as section 144A securities.
 
Tier 1, Tier 2 Tier 1 is the highest category of credit quality, Tier 2 the second highest. A security’s tier can be established either by an independent rating organization or by a determination of the investment adviser. Money market fund shares and U.S. government securities are automatically considered Tier 1 securities. The Schwab Money Funds only purchase securities which are considered to be Tier 1; however, they may hold Tier 2 securities as a result of a downgrade of a portfolio security.
 
total return The percentage that an investor would have earned or lost on an investment in the fund assuming dividends and distributions were reinvested.
 
variable rate demand obligations (VRDOs) Securities that have long maturities but which, because of their structure, require them to repay principal plus accrued interest within a specified timeframe (usually one or seven days) upon the demand of the bond holder. Depending on their structure, the repayment may be made by the bond issuer or by a financial institution, such as a highly rated bank.
 
variable rate demand preferred shares (VRDP) Variable rate demand securities that are issued by single state or national closed-end municipal bond funds, which, in turn, invest primarily in portfolios of tax-exempt municipal bonds. It is anticipated that the interest on VRDPs will be exempt from federal income tax. These securities are considered “municipal money market securities” for purposes of the fund’s investment policy as stated in the prospectus.
 
weighted average life (WAL) For money market mutual funds as per rule 2a-7, the weighted average life calculation takes into account either the final maturity date for each security held in the portfolio or, when relevant, the date of the next demand feature (when the fund is scheduled to receive payment of principal and interest after a demand). Money funds are required to maintain a weighted average life of no more than 120 days. Weighted average life for all Schwab money market funds is available in each fund’s monthly schedule of portfolio holdings at www.schwabfunds.com/prospectus and also available in each fund’s Form N-MFP on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov 60 days after the end of the month to which the information pertains.
 
weighted average maturity (WAM) For money market mutual funds as per rule 2a-7, the maturity date or Effective Maturity Date (see definition of maturity) of all the debt securities in its portfolio, or the date the interest rate on those securities is reset, or the date those securities can be redeemed through demand, calculated as a weighted average. As a rule, the longer a fund’s weighted average maturity, the greater its interest rate risk. Money funds are required to maintain a weighted average maturity of no more than 60 days.
 
yield The income paid out by an investment, expressed as a percentage of the investments market value.

From the President

Marie Chandoha is President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. and the fund covered in this report.

 
Dear Shareholder,
 
As President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for allowing us to serve your investment needs, and for reading this important communication concerning the performance of the Schwab money market funds. Although the investment environment has been challenging, recent signs suggest the potential for improvement.
 
During the year ended December 31, 2011, geopolitical unrest, natural disasters, legislative gridlock in the U.S., S&P’s downgrade of long-term U.S. sovereign debt, the euro zone’s ongoing debt crisis, and a shifting outlook regarding economic prospects resulted in a frequently volatile investment environment. Amid the market turbulence, bonds generated solid returns and money market securities continued to help investors preserve their hard-earned capital. On the equity side, U.S. stocks finished mixed after a year that generally favored defensive shares, dividend-paying stocks, and some of the largest blue-chip names. Record corporate profits and historically appealing levels for financial metrics such as price-to-earnings ratios served as part of the backdrop for the stock market’s performance, as did a fourth-quarter rally. The Dow Jones Industrial Average returned 8.38%, outpacing the 2.11% return of the S&P 500 Index, and the -4.18% loss posted by the small-cap Russell 2000 Index.
 
Early year optimism that U.S. economic growth would reach self-sustaining levels ultimately met with disappointing results. Inflation-adjusted U.S. economic activity (real GDP) expanded at a lackluster 0.4% annual pace in the first quarter of 2011. Although growth accelerated to a 2.8% annualized rate in the fourth quarter (advance estimate), the year’s overall level of activity represented a deceleration from the 3.0% pace achieved in 2010. As a result, companies remained reluctant to add employees at a consistently meaningful pace and the unemployment rate hovered around 9.0% for most of 2011, before trending lower during the final months of the year.
 
Attempting to right the unsettled economic landscape, the Federal Reserve (the Fed) implemented a variety of conventional and unconventional monetary operations. On the more conventional side, the Fed kept the federal funds rate target at a historically low 0-0.25%, where rates have held since they were first cut to that level in December 2008. Less conventionally, the Fed completed a second round of quantitative easing in June, purchasing approximately $600 billion of long-term Treasuries over roughly a 10-month period. This effort was designed to spark a faster rate of expansion by keeping long-term interest rates low. In late September, the Fed began “Operation Twist,” an attempt to further reduce long-term interest rates and help the still-troubled U.S. housing sector, while essentially holding short-term rates steady.
 
This collective backdrop paved the way for solid returns by fixed-income securities. U.S. Treasuries turned in particularly strong performances, thanks in part to intermittent bouts of investors looking for a safe haven. The U.S. Treasury sector of the Barclays Aggregate U.S. Bond Index returned 9.81% for the 12 months, the U.S. Agency sector returned 4.82%, and the Corporate sector returned 8.15%, while the longer maturities in each of these categories easily outperformed shorter maturities. The rally also pushed down the yield of the 10-year Treasury bond to only 1.89% by

the end of 2011, marking the first time in more than three decades that the yield on the benchmark bond finished a calendar year below 2.0%.
 
Money market instruments continued to offer a compelling means of achieving capital preservation for investors, even while posting near-zero returns. The historically low interest rate environment and periodic flights to safety drove up demand for short-term, highly liquid investments, a process that further reduced the already low yields on money market securities.
 
Thank you for investing in the Schwab money market funds. Please review the following pages for details about the fund’s characteristics, investment performance, and objectives.
 
We encourage you to review your investment portfolio regularly to make sure it meets your current financial plan. For answers to questions you may have or to consult our website for more information, please visit www.schwabfunds.com. We are also happy to hear from you at 1-800-435-4000.
 
Sincerely,

Schwab Money Market Fund 5


 

 
Schwab Money Market Fund
 
 
The Schwab Money Market Fund (the fund) seeks the highest current income consistent with stability of capital and liquidity. To pursue its goal, the fund invests in high-quality short-term money market investments issued by U.S. and foreign issuers. Examples of these securities include commercial paper, certificates of deposit, repurchase agreements, variable-rate debt securities, and obligations issued by the U.S. government, its agencies, or instrumentalities. Since December 2008, when the Federal Reserve (the Fed) first cut short-term interest rates to present-day levels, yields on money market securities have remained historically low. This trend continued during the report period.
 
As a result, the fund’s investment adviser and its affiliates voluntarily waived certain fees or expenses for the 12 months ended December 31, 2011, to help the fund maintain a positive net yield.* For more information about the fund’s yield and other important characteristics, please review the charts and footnotes that follow this discussion.
 
Market Highlights. Robust demand combined with limited supply continued to drive yields on taxable money market securities lower. Concern that the euro zone’s sovereign debt crisis could spread from Greece, Ireland, and Portugal to larger European countries featured prominently in that mix. Additionally, the downgrade of long-term U.S. debt by Standard & Poor’s heightened investors’ appetite for money market instruments, sparking a flight to quality. Amid that backdrop, investors turned to regions such as Canada and Australia as well, pressuring yields lower in these regions in the process.
 
From a supply standpoint, issuance declined across several money market sectors, including commercial paper, Treasury bills, and government agency discount notes. The Fed concluded its Supplemental Financing Program as the government ran up against budgetary constraints, removing approximately $200 billion of Treasury bills from the market. Issuance of government agency discount notes from the Federal Home Loan Bank System declined sharply as well.
 
Positioning and Strategies. The fund’s investment adviser focused on stability of capital and ensured robust liquidity amid the volatile market backdrop, and strategically managed the portfolio based upon developing conditions. For example, the fund’s weighted average maturity (WAM) was proactively reduced from roughly 43 days early in the second half of 2011 to approximately 39 days by the end of August, as the euro zone’s debt crisis again took center stage. In addition, the fund’s holdings in Spain and Italy were eliminated as the crisis began to spread. Exposure to some European banks, most specifically those in the euro zone, were also selectively pared back. As a result of these changes and in an effort to maintain a stable net asset value, the adviser reduced the fund’s WAM to 33 days by the end of 2011.

2 Yield reflects the effect of the fund’s agreement with the investment adviser and its affiliates to limit each share class’s total annual operating expenses to certain levels (contractual expense limitation). In addition, the investment adviser and its affiliates have voluntarily waived expenses in excess of the contractual expense limitation to maintain a positive net yield for the fund (voluntary expense waiver). Without the contractual expense limitation and the voluntary expense waiver, the fund’s yield would have been lower. For additional details, see financial note 4.
3 Yield does not reflect the effect of the contractual expense limitation, but does reflect the effect of the voluntary expense waiver. The voluntary expense waiver added 0.46% to the seven-day yield.

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
 
 Examples for a $1,000 Investment
 
As a fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: transaction costs, such as redemption fees; and, ongoing costs, such as management fees, transfer agent and shareholder services fees, and other fund expenses.
 
The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare this cost with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for six months beginning July 1, 2011 and held through December 31, 2011.
 
Actual Return lines in the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value ¸ $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund or share class under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period.”
 
Hypothetical Return lines in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a fund’s or share class’ actual expense ratio and an assumed return of 5% per year before expenses. Because the return used is not an actual return, it may not be used to estimate the actual ending account value or expenses you paid for the period.
 
You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
 
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only, and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees. If these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Portfolio Holdings as of December 31, 2011
 
 
This section shows all the securities in the fund’s portfolio and their values as of the report date.
 
The fund files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarter of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. The fund’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be viewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C. Call 1-800-SEC-0330 for information on the operation of the Public Reference Room. The fund also files a complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC monthly on Form N-MFP which is available 60 days after the end of the month to which the information pertains. A monthly schedule of portfolio holdings is also available by visiting the fund’s website at www.schwabfunds.com/prospectus along with a link to the fund’s Form N-MFP filings on the SEC’s website.
 
For fixed rate obligations, the rate shown is the coupon rate (the rate established when the obligation was issued) and if the coupon rate is not available, the effective yield at the time of purchase is shown. For variable-rate obligations, the rate shown is the interest rate as of the report date. If the security’s structure includes one of a number of maturity-shortening provisions set forth in Rule 2a-7, such as an interest rate reset, demand feature or put feature, the effective maturity date is disclosed. In addition, the second maturity date shown is either the date on which the principal amount must be paid or the date payment must be made pursuant to a demand feature. If the effective maturity and maturity date are the same, the date will appear in the maturity date column.

1. Business Structure of the Fund:
 
Schwab Money Market Fund is a series of The Charles Schwab Family of Funds (the “trust”), a no-load, open-end management investment company. The trust is organized as a Massachusetts business trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The list below shows all the funds in the trust as of the end of the period, including the fund discussed in this report, which is highlighted:

Schwab Money Market Fund offers one share class. Shares are bought and sold at closing net asset value (“NAV”), which is the price for all outstanding shares of the fund. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the Board of Trustees may authorize the issuance of as many shares as necessary.
 
The fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, the fund may also keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities law.
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
 
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the fund uses in its preparation of financial statements. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
 
(a) Security Valuation:
 
Securities in the fund are valued at amortized cost (which approximates market value) as permitted in accordance with Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act. In the event that security valuations do not approximate market value, securities may be valued as determined in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees.
 
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the fund discloses the fair value of its investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). If the fund determines that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to estimate fair value.
 
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
 
  •  Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities — Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and whose values are therefore classified as Level 1 prices, include active listed equities. The fund does not adjust the quoted prices for such investments, even in situations where the fund holds a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted price.
 
  •  Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) — Investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but whose values are based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or valuations provided by alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified as Level 2 prices. These generally include U.S. government and sovereign obligations, most government agency securities, investment-grade corporate bonds, certain mortgage products, less liquid listed equities, and state, municipal and provincial obligations. As investments whose values are classified as Level 2 prices include positions that are not traded in active markets and/or are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations may be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, which are generally based on available market information. Securities held by money

Financial Notes (continued)
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
  funds operating under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act are valued at amortized cost which approximates current market value and are considered to be valued using Level 2 inputs.
 
  •  Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumption in determining the fair value of investments) — Investments whose values are classified as Level 3 prices have significant unobservable inputs, as they may trade infrequently or not at all. When observable prices are not available for these securities, the fund uses one or more valuation techniques for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used by the fund in estimating the value of Level 3 prices may include the original transaction price, quoted prices for similar securities or assets in active markets, completed or pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows. Level 3 prices may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by the fund in the absence of market information. Assumptions used by the fund due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the fund’s results of operations.
 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. At December 31, 2011, all of the fund’s investment securities were classified as Level 2. The breakdown of the fund’s investments into major categories is disclosed on the portfolio holdings.
 
The fund’s policy is to recognize transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 as of the beginning of the fiscal year. There were no significant transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 for the period ended December 31, 2011.
 
(b) Accounting Policies for certain Portfolio Investments (if held):
 
Repurchase Agreements: In a repurchase agreement, a fund buys a security from another party (usually a financial institution) with the agreement that it be sold back in the future. Repurchase agreements subject a fund to counterparty risk, meaning that the fund could lose money if the other party fails to perform under the terms of the agreement. The fund mitigates this risk by ensuring that a fund’s repurchase agreements are collateralized by cash, U.S. government securities, fixed income securities, equity securities or other types of securities. All collateral is held by the fund’s custodian (or, with tri-party agreements, the agent’s bank) and is monitored daily to ensure that its market value is at least equal to the repurchase price under the agreement. Investments in repurchase agreements are also based on a review of the credit quality of the repurchase agreement counterparty.
 
Delayed-Delivery Transactions: The fund may buy securities at a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place after the customary settlement period for that type of security. The fund will assume the rights and risks of ownership at the time of purchase, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations. Typically, no interest will accrue to a fund until the security is delivered. The fund will earmark or segregate appropriate liquid assets to cover its delayed-delivery purchase obligations.
 
(c) Security Transactions:
 
Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains or losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved.
 
(d) Investment Income:
 
Interest income is recorded as it accrues. If a fund buys a debt security at a discount (less than face value) or a premium (more than face value), it amortizes the discount or premium from the current date up to maturity. The fund then increases (in the case of discounts) or reduces (in the case of premiums) the income it records from the security. If the security is callable (meaning that the issuer has the option to pay it off before its maturity date), then the fund amortizes the premium to the security’s call date and price, rather than the maturity date and price.
 
(e) Expenses:
 
Expenses that are specific to a fund are charged directly to the fund. Expenses that are common to all funds within the trust generally are allocated among the funds in proportion to their average daily net assets.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
(f) Distributions to Shareholders:
 
The fund declares distributions from net investment income, if any, every day it is open for business. These distributions, which are substantially equal to a fund’s net investment income for that day, are paid out to shareholders once a month. The fund declares distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, once a year.
 
(g) Custody Credit:
 
The fund has an arrangement with its custodian bank, State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”), under which the fund receives a credit for its uninvested cash balance to offset its custody fees and accounting fees. The credit amounts, if any, are disclosed in the Statement of Operations as a reduction to the fund’s operating expenses.
 
(h) Accounting Estimates:
 
The accounting policies described in this report conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It’s possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates and these differences may be material.
 
(i) Federal Income Taxes:
 
The fund intends to meet federal income and excise tax requirements for regulated investment companies. Accordingly, the fund distributes substantially all of its net investment income and realized net capital gains, if any, to its respective shareholders each year. As long as a fund meets the tax requirements, it is not required to pay federal income tax.
 
(j) Indemnification:
 
Under the fund’s organizational documents, the officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the fund. In addition, in the normal course of business the fund enters into contracts with its vendors and others that provide general indemnifications. The fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the fund. However, based on experience, the fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.
 
(k) New Accounting Pronouncements:
 
In April 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) related to accounting for repurchase agreements and similar agreements that both entitle and obligate a transferor to repurchase or redeem financial assets before their maturity. The ASU modifies the criteria for determining effective control of transferred assets and as a result certain agreements may now be accounted for as secured borrowings. The ASU is effective prospectively for new and existing transfers that are modified in the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011.
 
In May 2011, the FASB issued an update to requirements relating to “Fair Value Measurement which represents amendments to achieve common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in US GAAP and IFRS.” The amendments include (i) those that clarify the FASB’s intent about the application of existing fair value measurement and disclosure requirements and (ii) those that change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. The amendments that change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or disclosing information about fair value measurements relate to (i) measuring the fair value of the financial instruments that are managed within a portfolio; (ii) application of premium and discount in a fair value measurement; and (iii) additional disclosures about fair value measurements. The update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 with early adoption prohibited.
 
At this time, management is evaluating the implications of these changes and their impact on the financial statements.

3. Risk Factors:
 
An investment in the fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the fund seeks to preserve the value of a shareholder’s investment at $1 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the fund.
 
Interest rates rise and fall over time. As with any investment whose yield reflects current interest rates, the fund’s yield will change over time. During periods when interest rates are low, the fund’s yield (and total return) also will be low. In addition, to the extent the fund makes any reimbursement payments to the investment adviser and/or its affiliates, the fund’s yield would be lower.
 
The fund is subject to the risk that a decline in the credit quality of a portfolio investment could cause the fund to lose money or underperform. The fund could lose money if the issuer of a portfolio investment fails to make timely principal or interest payments or if a guarantor, liquidity provider or counterparty of a portfolio investment fails to otherwise honor its obligations. Even though the fund’s investments in repurchase agreements are collateralized at all times, there is some risk to the fund if the other party should default on its obligations and the fund is delayed or prevented from recovering or disposing of the collateral. The negative perceptions of the ability of an issuer, guarantor, liquidity provider or counterparty to make payments or otherwise honor its obligations, as applicable, could also cause the price of that investment to decline. The credit quality of a fund’s portfolio holdings can change rapidly in certain market environments and any downgrade or default on the part of a single portfolio investment could cause the fund’s share price or yield to fall.
 
Many of the U.S. government securities that the fund invests in are not backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government, which means they are neither issued nor guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. There can be no assurance that the U.S. government will provide financial support to securities of its agencies and instrumentalities if it is not obligated to do so under law. Also, any government guarantees on securities a fund owns do not extend to the shares of the fund itself.
 
The fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers or securities with credit or liquidity enhancements provided by foreign entities may involve certain risks that are greater than those associated with investments in securities of U.S. issuers or securities with credit or liquidity enhancements provided by U.S. entities. These include risks of adverse changes in foreign economic, political, regulatory and other conditions; differing accounting, auditing, financial reporting and legal standards and practices; differing securities market structures; and higher transaction costs. In addition, sovereign risk, or the risk that a government may become unwilling or unable to meet its loan obligations or guarantees, could increase the credit risk of financial institutions connected to that particular country.
 
Any actively managed mutual fund is subject to the risk that its investment adviser will make poor security selections. The fund’s investment adviser applies its own investment techniques and risk analyses in making investment decisions for the fund, but there can be no guarantee that they will produce the desired results. The investment adviser’s maturity decisions will also affect the fund’s yield, and in unusual circumstances potentially could affect its share price. To the extent that the investment adviser anticipates interest rate trends imprecisely, the fund’s yield at times could lag those of other money market funds.
 
Liquidity risk exists when particular investments are difficult to purchase or sell. The market for certain investments may become illiquid due to specific adverse changes in the conditions of a particular issuer or under adverse market or economic conditions independent of the issuer. The fund’s investments in illiquid securities may reduce the returns of the fund because it may be unable to sell the illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price. Further, transactions in illiquid securities may entail transaction costs that are higher than those for transactions in liquid securities.
 
The fund may experience periods of heavy redemptions that could cause the fund to liquidate its assets at inopportune times or at a loss or depressed value, particularly during periods of declining or illiquid markets. Redemptions by a few large investors in the fund may have a significant adverse effect on the fund’s ability to maintain a stable $1.00 share price. In the event any money market fund fails to maintain a stable net asset value, other money market funds, including the fund, could face a market-wide risk of increased redemption pressures, potentially jeopardizing the stability of their $1.00 share prices.
 
The fund is not designed to offer capital appreciation. In exchange for their emphasis on stability and liquidity, money market investments may offer lower long-term performance than stock or bond investments.
 
Please refer to the fund’s prospectus for a more complete description of the principal risks of investing in the fund.

 Schwab Money Market Fund
 

 
Financial Notes (continued)
 
4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions:
 
Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (“CSIM” or the “investment adviser”), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Charles Schwab Corporation, serves as the fund’s investment adviser and administrator pursuant to an Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement (“Advisory Agreement”) between CSIM and the trust.
 
For its advisory and administrative services to the fund, CSIM is entitled to receive an annual fee, payable monthly, based on a percentage of the fund’s average daily net assets as follows:
 
         
Average Daily Net Assets
   
 
First $1 billion
    0.35%  
More than $1 billion but not exceeding $10 billion
    0.32%  
More than $10 billion but not exceeding $20 billion
    0.30%  
More than $20 billion but not exceeding $40 billion
    0.27%  
Over $40 billion
    0.25%  
 
The Board of Trustees has adopted a Shareholder Servicing and Sweep Administration Plan (the “Plan”) on behalf of the fund. The Plan enables the fund to bear expenses relating to the provision by service providers, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (a broker-dealer affiliate of CSIM, “Schwab”), of certain account maintenance, customer liaison and shareholder services to the current shareholders of the fund. Schwab serves as the fund’s paying agent under the Plan for making payments of the shareholder service fee due to the service providers (other than Schwab) under the Plan. All shareholder service fees paid by the fund to Schwab in its capacity as the fund’s paying agent will be passed through to the service providers, and Schwab will not retain any portion of such fees. The Plan also enables the fund to pay Schwab for certain sweep administration services, such as processing of automatic purchases and redemptions it provides to fund shareholders invested in the fund.
 
Pursuant to the Plan, the fund’s shares are subject to an annual shareholder servicing fee of up to 0.25%. The shareholder servicing fee paid to a particular service provider is made pursuant to its written agreement with Schwab (or, in the case of payments made to Schwab, pursuant to Schwab’s written agreement with the fund), and the fund will pay no more than 0.25% of the average annual daily net asset value of the fund shares owned by shareholders holding shares through Schwab. Pursuant to the Plan, the fund’s shares are subject to an annual sweep administration fee of up to 0.15%. The sweep administration fee paid to Schwab is based on the average daily net asset value of the fund shares owned by shareholders holding shares through Schwab. Payments under the Plan are made as described above regardless of Schwab’s or the service provider’s actual cost of providing the services. If the cost of providing the services under the Plan is less than the payment received, the unexpended portion of the fees may be retained as profit by Schwab or the service provider.
 
Contractual Expense Limitation
 
Although these agreements specify certain fees for these services, CSIM and Schwab have made an additional agreement (“expense limitation”) with the fund, for so long as CSIM serves as the investment adviser to the fund, which may only be amended or terminated with the approval of the fund’s Board of Trustees, to limit the total annual fund operating expenses, excluding interest, taxes, and certain non-routine expenses to 0.71%.
 
In addition, effective January 1, 2011 through December 31, 2011, CSIM and Schwab agreed to waive an additional amount of the fund’s expenses equal to 0.035% of the fund’s average daily net assets.
 
Voluntary Expense Waiver/Reimbursement
 
In addition to the contractual expense limitation agreements noted above, Schwab and the investment adviser also may waive and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to maintain a positive net yield for the fund. Schwab and the investment adviser may recapture from the fund any of these expenses or fees they have waived and/or reimbursed until the third anniversary of the end of the fiscal year in which such waiver and/or reimbursement occurs, subject to certain limitations. These reimbursement payments by the fund to Schwab and/or the investment adviser are considered “non-routine expenses” and are not subject to any net operating expense limitations in effect at the time of such payment. This recapture could negatively affect

the fund’s future yield. There were no prior year amounts recaptured. As of December 31, 2011, the balance of recoupable expenses is as follows:

Schwab Money Market Fund
    $26,653,803       $47,297,540       $59,017,389       $132,968,732  
 
The fund may engage in direct transactions with certain other Schwab Funds when practical. When one fund is seeking to sell a security that another is seeking to buy, an interfund transaction can allow both funds to benefit by reducing transaction costs. This practice is limited to funds that share the same investment adviser, trustees and/or officers. For the period ended December 31, 2011, the fund’s aggregate security transactions with other Schwab Funds were $50,000,000.
 
Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the fund may enter into interfund borrowing and lending transactions with other Schwab Funds. All loans are for temporary or emergency purposes only. The interest rate charged on the loan is the average of the overnight repurchase agreement rate and the short-term bank loan rate. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review of the Board of Trustees of the Schwab Funds. The fund had no interfund borrowing or lending activity during the period.
 
On September 14, 2010, The Charles Schwab Corporation made a payment of $22,341,858 to Schwab Money Market Fund to cover the net remaining losses recognized as a result of its investment in a single structured investment vehicle that defaulted in 2008. This payment represented 0.2% of the fund’s net assets on that date.
 
5. Transfer Agent Services:
 
Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. (“BFDS”) provides transfer agent services for the fund.
 
6. Board of Trustees:
 
Trustees may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The trust did not pay any of these interested persons for their services as trustees, but it did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted in the fund’s Statement of Operations.
 
7. Borrowing from Banks:
 
The fund has access to custodian overdraft facilities, a committed line of credit of $150 million with State Street Bank and Trust (“State Street”), an uncommitted line of credit of $100 million with Bank of America, N.A. and an uncommitted line of credit of $50 million with Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. The fund pays interest on the amount it borrows at rates that are negotiated periodically. The fund also pays an annual fee to State Street for the committed line of credit.
 
There were no borrowings from the lines of credit by the fund during the period. However, the fund may have utilized its overdraft facility and incurred interest expense, which is disclosed in the Statement of Operations, if any. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.
 
8. Federal Income Taxes:
 
As of December 31, 2011, the fund had no distributable earnings on a tax basis.
 
Capital loss carryforwards may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. As of December 31, 2011, the fund had capital loss carryforwards of $2,081,303 available to offset net capital gains before the expiration date of December 31, 2017.
 
For tax purposes, realized net capital losses incurred after October 31 may be deferred and treated as occurring on the first day of the following year. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the fund had no capital losses deferred and had $10,045 capital losses utilized.

 Schwab Money Market Fund
 

 
Financial Notes (continued)
 
8. Federal Income Taxes (continued):
 
The tax-basis components of distributions paid during the current and prior fiscal years were:
 
         
Current period distributions
Ordinary income
    $1,393,031  
 
Prior period distributions
Ordinary income
    $1,381,046  
 
Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income and net realized gains determined on a tax basis, which may differ from net investment income and net realized gains for financial reporting purposes; there were no such differences in the current year. The fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year in which the net investment income and net realized gains are recorded by the fund for financial reporting purposes. The fund may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.
 
Permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between capital account and other accounts as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. As of December 31, 2011, the fund made the following reclassifications:
 
         
Undistributed net investment income
    ($4,712 )
Net realized capital gains and losses
    4,712  
 
As of December 31, 2011, management has reviewed the tax positions for open periods (for federal purposes, three years from the date of filing and for state purposes, four years from the date of filing) as applicable to the fund, and has determined that no provision for income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements. The fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period ended December 31, 2011, the fund did not incur any interest or penalties.
 
On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (“the Act”) was signed by the President. The Act is the first major piece of legislation affecting Regulated Investment Companies (“RICs”) since 1986 and it modernizes several of the federal income and excise tax provisions related to RICs.
 
Certain of the enacted provisions include:
 
Post-enactment capital losses may now be carried forward indefinitely, but must retain the character of the original loss. Under pre-enactment law, capital losses could be carried forward for eight years, and carried forward as short-term capital, irrespective of the character of the original loss. The Act contains simplification provisions, which are aimed at preventing disqualification of a RIC for “inadvertent” failures of the asset diversification and/or qualifying income tests. Additionally, the Act exempts RICs from the preferential dividend rule, and repeals the 60-day designation requirement for certain types of pay-through income and gains.
 
Finally, the Act contains several provisions aimed at preserving the character of distributions made by a fiscal year RIC during the portion of its taxable year ending after October 31 or December 31, reducing the circumstances under which a RIC might be required to file amended Forms 1099 to restate previously reported distributions.
 
Except for the simplification provisions related to RIC qualification, the Act is effective for taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010. The provisions related to RIC qualification are effective for taxable years for which the extended due date of the tax return is after December 22, 2010.
 
9. Subsequent Events:
 
Management has determined there are no subsequent events or transactions through the date the financial statements were issued that would have materially impacted the financial statements as presented.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
 
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of:
Schwab Money Market Fund
 
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio holdings, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Schwab Money Market Fund (one of the portfolios constituting The Charles Schwab Family of Funds, hereafter referred to as the “Fund”) at December 31, 2011, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2011 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Glossary
 
 
agency discount notes Notes issued by federal agencies—known as Government Sponsored Enterprises, or GSEs—at a discount to their value at maturity. An agency discount note is a short-term investment alternative offering a high degree of credit quality.
 
asset-backed commercial paper A short-term investment that is typically issued by a bank or other financial institution. The notes represent an interest in financial assets such as trade receivables, credit card receivables, auto receivables, etc. and are generally used for the short-term financing needs of companies.
 
Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index A broad-based benchmark that measures the investment grade, U.S. dollar-denominated, fixed-rate taxable bond market, including Treasuries, government-related and corporate securities, mortgage-back securities (agency fixed-rate and hybrid ARM passthroughs), asset-backed securities, and commercial mortgage-backed securities.
 
Barclays Capital U.S. TIPS Index (Series-L) A rules-based, market value-weighted index that tracks inflation-protected securities issued by the U.S. Treasury that have at least one year remaining to maturity, are rated investment grade and have $250 million or more of outstanding face value.
 
capital gain, capital loss The difference between the amount paid for an investment and its value at a later time. If the investment has been sold, the capital gain or loss is considered a realized gain or loss. If the investment is still held, the gain or loss is still “on paper” and is considered unrealized.
 
commercial paper Promissory notes issued by banks, corporations and other entities to finance short-term credit needs. These securities generally are structured on a discounted basis but sometimes may be interest-bearing notes. Commercial paper, which may be unsecured, is subject to credit risk.
 
corporate note An unsecured debt security issued by a corporation that is subject to the credit risk of the issuer.
 
credit-enhanced securities Securities that are backed by the credit of an entity other than the issuer (such as a financial institution). Credit enhancements, which can equal up to 100% of the security’s value, are designed to help lower the risk of default on a security and may also make the security more liquid.
 
credit quality The capacity of an issuer to make its interest and principal payments. Federal regulations strictly regulate the credit quality of the securities a money market fund can buy.
 
credit ratings Debt issuers, including corporations, states and municipalities, may arrange with a recognized independent rating organization, such as Standard & Poor’s, Fitch, Inc. and Moody’s Investor Service, to rate their creditworthiness and/or the creditworthiness of their debt issues. For example, an issuer may obtain a long-term rating within the investment grade rating category, which is, from high to low, AAA, AA, A and BBB for Standard & Poor’s and Fitch, and Aaa, Aa, A and Baa for Moody’s.
 
credit risk The risk that a debt issuer may be unable to pay interest or repay principal to its debt holders.
 
dollar-weighted average maturity (DWAM) See weighted average maturity.
 
effective yield A measurement of a fund’s yield that assumes that all interest income is reinvested in additional shares of the fund.
 
expense ratio The amount that is taken from a mutual fund’s assets each year to cover the fund’s operating expenses. An expense ratio of 0.50% means that a fund’s expenses amount to half of one percent of its average net assets for the year.
 
face value The value of a bond, note, mortgage or other security as given on the certificate or instrument. Face value is also referred to as par value or nominal value.
 
illiquid securities Securities are generally considered illiquid if they cannot be disposed of promptly (typically within seven days) and in the ordinary course of business at approximately the amount at which a fund has valued the instruments.
 
interest Payments to holders of debt securities as compensation for loaning a security’s principal to the issuer.
 
liquidity-enhanced security The security’s structure includes a liquidity arrangement that requires an entity other than the issuer (such as a large financial institution) to provide funds to pay a tender under most circumstances. Liquidity enhancements are often used on variable-rate securities where the portfolio manager has an option to tender the securities for repayment within a specified time period (usually one day or one week) at any time prior to their final maturity.
 
maturity The date a debt security is scheduled to be “retired” and its principal amount repaid. The Maturity of an investment will generally reflect the security’s final maturity date unless the security’s structure includes a maturity-shortening provision such as an interest rate reset, demand feature or put feature (the “Effective Maturity Date”). For those securities with a maturity-shortening provision, including variable-rate demand securities, the Maturity is determined by using the Effective Maturity Date, as permitted by Rule 2a-7.
 
MSCI EAFE (Europe, Australasia, Far East) Index A free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets, excluding the US & Canada.
 
municipal securities Debt securities issued by a state, its counties, municipalities, authorities and other subdivisions, or the territories and possessions of the United States and the District of Columbia, including their subdivisions, agencies and instrumentalities and corporations. These securities may be issued to obtain money for various public purposes, including the construction of a wide range of public facilities such as airports, bridges, highways, housing, hospitals, mass transportation, public utilities, schools, streets, and water and sewer works.
 
net asset value per share (NAV) The value of one share of a mutual fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets, subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding. Money funds seek to maintain a steady NAV of $1.00.
 
outstanding shares, shares outstanding When speaking of a company or mutual fund, indicates all shares currently held by investors.
 
restricted securities Securities that are subject to contractual restrictions on resale. These securities are often purchased in private placement transactions.
 
S&P 500 Index A market capitalization index that is designed to measure the performance of 500 leading publicly held companies in leading industries of the U.S. economy.

section 3c7 securities Section 3c7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) exempts certain issuers from many regulatory requirements applicable to investment companies under the 1940 Act. An issuer whose outstanding securities are exclusively owned by “qualified purchasers” and who is not making or proposing to make a public offering of the securities may qualify for this exemption.
 
section 4(2)/144A securities Securities exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. These securities may be sold only to qualified institutional buyers under Securities Act Rule 144A.
 
taxable-equivalent yield The yield an investor would need to get from a taxable investment in order to match the yield paid by a given tax-exempt investment, once the effect of all applicable taxes is taken into account. For example, if your tax rate were 25%, a tax-exempt investment paying 4.5% would have a taxable-equivalent yield for you of 6.0% (4.5% ¸ [1 − 0.25%] = 6.0%).
 
Tier 1, Tier 2 Tier 1 is the highest category of credit quality, Tier 2 the second highest. A security’s tier can be established either by an independent rating organization or by a determination of the investment adviser. Money market fund shares and U.S. government securities are automatically considered Tier 1 securities. The Schwab Money Funds only purchase securities which are considered to be Tier 1; however, they may hold Tier 2 securities as a result of a downgrade of a portfolio security.
 
total return The percentage that an investor would have earned or lost on an investment in the fund assuming dividends and distributions were reinvested.
 
weighted average life (WAL) For money market mutual funds as per rule 2a-7, the weighted average life calculation takes into account either the final maturity date for each security held in the portfolio or, when relevant, the date of the next demand feature (when the fund is scheduled to receive payment of principal and interest after a demand). Money funds are required to maintain a weighted average life of no more than 120 days. Weighted average life for all Schwab money market funds is available in each fund’s monthly schedule of portfolio holdings at www.schwabfunds.com/prospectus and also available in each fund’s Form N-MFP on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov 60 days after the end of the month to which the information pertains.
 
weighted average maturity (WAM) For money market mutual funds as per rule 2a-7, the maturity date or Effective Maturity Date (see definition of maturity) of all the debt securities in its portfolio, or the date the interest rate on those securities is reset, or the date those securities can be redeemed through demand, calculated as a weighted average. As a rule, the longer a fund’s weighted average maturity, the greater its interest rate risk. Money funds are required to maintain a weighted average maturity of no more than 60 days.
 
yield The income paid out by an investment, expressed as a percentage of the investments market value.

Marie Chandoha is President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. and the fund covered in this report.

 
Dear Shareholder,
 
As President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc., I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for allowing us to serve your investment needs, and for reading this important communication concerning the performance of the Schwab money market funds. Although the investment environment has been challenging, recent signs suggest the potential for improvement.
 
During the year ended December 31, 2011, geopolitical unrest, natural disasters, legislative gridlock in the U.S., S&P’s downgrade of long-term U.S. sovereign debt, the euro zone’s ongoing debt crisis, and a shifting outlook regarding economic prospects resulted in a frequently volatile investment environment. Amid the market turbulence, bonds generated solid returns and money market securities continued to help investors preserve their hard-earned capital. On the equity side, U.S. stocks finished mixed after a year that generally favored defensive shares, dividend-paying stocks, and some of the largest blue-chip names. Record corporate profits and historically appealing levels for financial metrics such as price-to-earnings ratios served as part of the backdrop for the stock market’s performance, as did a fourth-quarter rally. The Dow Jones Industrial Average returned 8.38%, outpacing the 2.11% return of the S&P 500 Index, and the -4.18% loss posted by the small-cap Russell 2000 Index.
 
Early year optimism that U.S. economic growth would reach self-sustaining levels ultimately met with disappointing results. Inflation-adjusted U.S. economic activity (real GDP) expanded at a lackluster 0.4% annual pace in the first quarter of 2011. Although growth accelerated to a 2.8% annualized rate in the fourth quarter (advance estimate), the year’s overall level of activity represented a deceleration from the 3.0% pace achieved in 2010. As a result, companies remained reluctant to add employees at a consistently meaningful pace and the unemployment rate hovered around 9.0% for most of 2011, before trending lower during the final months of the year.
 
Attempting to right the unsettled economic landscape, the Federal Reserve (the Fed) implemented a variety of conventional and unconventional monetary operations. On the more conventional side, the Fed kept the federal funds rate target at a historically low 0-0.25%, where rates have held since they were first cut to that level in December 2008. Less conventionally, the Fed completed a second round of quantitative easing in June, purchasing approximately $600 billion of long-term Treasuries over roughly a 10-month period. This effort was designed to spark a faster rate of expansion by keeping long-term interest rates low. In late September, the Fed began “Operation Twist,” an attempt to further reduce long-term interest rates and help the still-troubled U.S. housing sector, while essentially holding short-term rates steady.
 
This collective backdrop paved the way for solid returns by fixed-income securities. U.S. Treasuries turned in particularly strong performances, thanks in part to intermittent bouts of investors looking for a safe haven. The U.S. Treasury sector of the Barclays Aggregate U.S. Bond Index returned 9.81% for the 12 months, the U.S. Agency sector returned 4.82%, and the Corporate sector returned 8.15%, while the longer maturities in each of these categories easily outperformed shorter maturities. The rally also pushed down the yield of the 10-year Treasury bond to only 1.89% by

the end of 2011, marking the first time in more than three decades that the yield on the benchmark bond finished a calendar year below 2.0%.
 
Money market instruments continued to offer a compelling means of achieving capital preservation for investors, even while posting near-zero returns. The historically low interest rate environment and periodic flights to safety drove up demand for short-term, highly liquid investments, a process that further reduced the already low yields on money market securities.
 
Thank you for investing in the Schwab money market funds. Please review the following pages for details about the fund’s characteristics, investment performance, and objectives.
 
We encourage you to review your investment portfolio regularly to make sure it meets your current financial plan. For answers to questions you may have or to consult our website for more information, please visit www.schwabfunds.com. We are also happy to hear from you at 1-800-435-4000.
 
Sincerely,

Schwab Cash Reserves
 
 
Schwab Cash Reserves (the fund) seeks the highest current income consistent with stability of capital and liquidity. To pursue its goal, the fund invests in high-quality short-term money market investments issued by U.S. and foreign issuers. Examples of these securities include commercial paper, certificates of deposit, repurchase agreements, variable-rate debt securities, and obligations issued by the U.S. government, its agencies, or instrumentalities. Since December 2008, when the Federal Reserve (the Fed) first cut short-term interest rates to present-day levels, yields on money market securities have remained historically low. This trend continued during the report period.
 
As a result, the fund’s investment adviser and its affiliates voluntarily waived certain fees or expenses for the 12 months ended December 31, 2011, to help the fund maintain a positive net yield.* For more information about the fund’s yield and other important characteristics, please review the charts and footnotes that follow this discussion.
 
Market Highlights. Robust demand combined with limited supply continued to drive yields on taxable money market securities lower. Concern that the euro zone’s sovereign debt crisis could spread from Greece, Ireland, and Portugal to larger European countries featured prominently in that mix. Additionally, the downgrade of long-term U.S. debt by Standard & Poor’s heightened investors’ appetite for money market instruments, sparking a flight to quality. Amid that backdrop, investors turned to regions such as Canada and Australia as well, pressuring yields lower in these regions in the process.
 
From a supply standpoint, issuance declined across several money market sectors, including commercial paper, Treasury bills, and government agency discount notes. The Fed concluded its Supplemental Financing Program as the government ran up against budgetary constraints, removing approximately $200 billion of Treasury bills from the market. Issuance of government agency discount notes from the Federal Home Loan Bank System declined sharply as well.
 
Positioning and Strategies. The fund’s investment adviser focused on stability of capital and ensured robust liquidity amid the volatile market backdrop, and strategically managed the portfolio based upon developing conditions. For example, the fund’s weighted average maturity (WAM) was proactively reduced from roughly 45 days early in the second half of 2011 to approximately 39 days by the end of August, as the euro zone’s debt crisis again took center stage. In addition, the fund’s holdings in Spain and Italy were eliminated as the crisis began to spread. Exposure to some European banks, most specifically those in the euro zone, were also selectively pared back. As a result of these changes and in an effort to maintain a stable net asset value, the adviser reduced the fund’s WAM to 33 days by the end of 2011.

2 Yield reflects the effect of the fund’s agreement with the investment adviser and its affiliates to limit each share class’s total annual operating expenses to certain levels (contractual expense limitation). In addition, the investment adviser and its affiliates have voluntarily waived expenses in excess of the contractual expense limitation to maintain a positive net yield for the fund (voluntary expense waiver). Without the contractual expense limitation and the voluntary expense waiver, the fund’s yield would have been lower. For additional details, see financial note 4.
3 Yield does not reflect the effect of the contractual expense limitation, but does reflect the effect of the voluntary expense waiver. The voluntary expense waiver added 0.46% to the seven-day yield.

Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
 
 Examples for a $1,000 Investment
 
As a fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: transaction costs, such as redemption fees; and, ongoing costs, such as management fees, transfer agent and shareholder services fees, and other fund expenses.
 
The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare this cost with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for six months beginning July 1, 2011 and held through December 31, 2011.
 
Actual Return lines in the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value ¸ $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund or share class under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period.”
 
Hypothetical Return lines in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a fund’s or share class’ actual expense ratio and an assumed return of 5% per year before expenses. Because the return used is not an actual return, it may not be used to estimate the actual ending account value or expenses you paid for the period.
 
You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
 
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only, and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees. If these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

For fixed rate obligations, the rate shown is the coupon rate (the rate established when the obligation was issued) and if the coupon rate is not available, the effective yield at the time of purchase is shown. For variable-rate obligations, the rate shown is the interest rate as of the report date. If the security’s structure includes one of a number of maturity-shortening provisions set forth in Rule 2a-7, such as an interest rate reset, demand feature or put feature, the effective maturity date is disclosed. In addition, the second maturity date shown is either the date on which the principal amount must be paid or the date payment must be made pursuant to a demand feature. If the effective maturity and maturity date are the same, the date will appear in the maturity date column.

1. Business Structure of the Fund:
 
Schwab Cash Reserves is a series of The Charles Schwab Family of Funds (the “trust”), a no-load, open-end management investment company. The trust is organized as a Massachusetts business trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The list below shows all the funds in the trust as of the end of the period, including the fund discussed in this report, which is highlighted:

Schwab Cash Reserves offers one share class. Shares are bought and sold at closing net asset value (“NAV”), which is the price for all outstanding shares of the fund. Each share has a par value of 1/1,000 of a cent, and the Board of Trustees may authorize the issuance of as many shares as necessary.
 
The fund maintains its own account for purposes of holding assets and accounting, and is considered a separate entity for tax purposes. Within its account, the fund may also keep certain assets in segregated accounts, as required by securities law.
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
 
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies the fund uses in its preparation of financial statements. The accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
 
(a) Security Valuation:
 
Securities in the fund are valued at amortized cost (which approximates market value) as permitted in accordance with Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act. In the event that security valuations do not approximate market value, securities may be valued as determined in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees.
 
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the fund discloses the fair value of its investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). If the fund determines that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to estimate fair value.
 
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
 
  •  Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities — Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and whose values are therefore classified as Level 1 prices, include active listed equities. The fund does not adjust the quoted prices for such investments, even in situations where the fund holds a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted price.
 
  •  Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) — Investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but whose values are based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or valuations provided by alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified as Level 2 prices. These generally include U.S. government and sovereign obligations, most government agency securities, investment-grade corporate bonds, certain mortgage products, less liquid listed equities, and state, municipal and provincial obligations. As investments whose values are classified as Level 2 prices include positions that are not traded in active markets and/or are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations may be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, which are generally based on available market information. Securities held by money

Financial Notes (continued)
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
  funds operating under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act are valued at amortized cost which approximates current market value and are considered to be valued using Level 2 inputs.
 
  •  Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumption in determining the fair value of investments) — Investments whose values are classified as Level 3 prices have significant unobservable inputs, as they may trade infrequently or not at all. When observable prices are not available for these securities, the fund uses one or more valuation techniques for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used by the fund in estimating the value of Level 3 prices may include the original transaction price, quoted prices for similar securities or assets in active markets, completed or pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows. Level 3 prices may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by the fund in the absence of market information. Assumptions used by the fund due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the fund’s results of operations.
 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. At December 31, 2011, all of the fund’s investment securities were classified as Level 2. The breakdown of the fund’s investments into major categories is disclosed on the portfolio holdings.
 
The fund’s policy is to recognize transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 as of the beginning of the fiscal year. There were no significant transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 for the period ended December 31, 2011.
 
(b) Accounting Policies for certain Portfolio Investments (if held):
 
Repurchase Agreements: In a repurchase agreement, a fund buys a security from another party (usually a financial institution) with the agreement that it be sold back in the future. Repurchase agreements subject a fund to counterparty risk, meaning that the fund could lose money if the other party fails to perform under the terms of the agreement. The fund mitigates this risk by ensuring that a fund’s repurchase agreements are collateralized by cash, U.S. government securities, fixed income securities, equity securities or other types of securities. All collateral is held by the fund’s custodian (or, with tri-party agreements, the agent’s bank) and is monitored daily to ensure that its market value is at least equal to the repurchase price under the agreement. Investments in repurchase agreements are also based on a review of the credit quality of the repurchase agreement counterparty.
 
Delayed-Delivery Transactions: The fund may buy securities at a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place after the customary settlement period for that type of security. The fund will assume the rights and risks of ownership at the time of purchase, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations. Typically, no interest will accrue to a fund until the security is delivered. The fund will earmark or segregate appropriate liquid assets to cover its delayed-delivery purchase obligations.
 
(c) Security Transactions:
 
Security transactions are recorded as of the date the order to buy or sell the security is executed. Realized gains or losses from security transactions are based on the identified costs of the securities involved.
 
(d) Investment Income:
 
Interest income is recorded as it accrues. If a fund buys a debt security at a discount (less than face value) or a premium (more than face value), it amortizes the discount or premium from the current date up to maturity. The fund then increases (in the case of discounts) or reduces (in the case of premiums) the income it records from the security. If the security is callable (meaning that the issuer has the option to pay it off before its maturity date), then the fund amortizes the premium to the security’s call date and price, rather than the maturity date and price.
 
(e) Expenses:
 
Expenses that are specific to a fund are charged directly to the fund. Expenses that are common to all funds within the trust generally are allocated among the funds in proportion to their average daily net assets.

Financial Notes (continued)
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued):
 
(f) Distributions to Shareholders:
 
The fund declares distributions from net investment income, if any, every day it is open for business. These distributions, which are substantially equal to a fund’s net investment income for that day, are paid out to shareholders once a month. The fund declares distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, once a year.
 
(g) Custody Credit:
 
The fund has an arrangement with its custodian bank, State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”), under which the fund receives a credit for its uninvested cash balance to offset its custody fees and accounting fees. The credit amounts, if any, are disclosed in the Statement of Operations as a reduction to the fund’s operating expenses.
 
(h) Accounting Estimates:
 
The accounting policies described in this report conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Notwithstanding this, shareholders should understand that in order to follow these principles, fund management has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the information reported in the financial statements. It’s possible that once the results are known, they may turn out to be different from these estimates and these differences may be material.
 
(i) Federal Income Taxes:
 
The fund intends to meet federal income and excise tax requirements for regulated investment companies. Accordingly, the fund distributes substantially all of its net investment income and realized net capital gains, if any, to its respective shareholders each year. As long as a fund meets the tax requirements, it is not required to pay federal income tax.
 
(j) Indemnification:
 
Under the fund’s organizational documents, the officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the fund. In addition, in the normal course of business the fund enters into contracts with its vendors and others that provide general indemnifications. The fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the fund. However, based on experience, the fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.
 
(k) New Accounting Pronouncements:
 
In April 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) related to accounting for repurchase agreements and similar agreements that both entitle and obligate a transferor to repurchase or redeem financial assets before their maturity. The ASU modifies the criteria for determining effective control of transferred assets and as a result certain agreements may now be accounted for as secured borrowings. The ASU is effective prospectively for new and existing transfers that are modified in the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011.
 
In May 2011, the FASB issued an update to requirements relating to “Fair Value Measurement which represents amendments to achieve common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in US GAAP and IFRS.” The amendments include (i) those that clarify the FASB’s intent about the application of existing fair value measurement and disclosure requirements and (ii) those that change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. The amendments that change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or disclosing information about fair value measurements relate to (i) measuring the fair value of the financial instruments that are managed within a portfolio; (ii) application of premium and discount in a fair value measurement; and (iii) additional disclosures about fair value measurements. The update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 with early adoption prohibited.
 
At this time, management is evaluating the implications of these changes and their impact on the financial statements.

3. Risk Factors:
 
An investment in the fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the fund seeks to preserve the value of a shareholder’s investment at $1 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the fund.
 
Interest rates rise and fall over time. As with any investment whose yield reflects current interest rates, the fund’s yield will change over time. During periods when interest rates are low, the fund’s yield (and total return) also will be low. In addition, to the extent the fund makes any reimbursement payments to the investment adviser and/or its affiliates, the fund’s yield would be lower.
 
The fund is subject to the risk that a decline in the credit quality of a portfolio investment could cause the fund to lose money or underperform. The fund could lose money if the issuer of a portfolio investment fails to make timely principal or interest payments or if a guarantor, liquidity provider or counterparty of a portfolio investment fails to otherwise honor its obligations. Even though the fund’s investments in repurchase agreements are collateralized at all times, there is some risk to the fund if the other party should default on its obligations and the fund is delayed or prevented from recovering or disposing of the collateral. The negative perceptions of the ability of an issuer, guarantor, liquidity provider or counterparty to make payments or otherwise honor its obligations, as applicable, could also cause the price of that investment to decline. The credit quality of a fund’s portfolio holdings can change rapidly in certain market environments and any downgrade or default on the part of a single portfolio investment could cause the fund’s share price or yield to fall.
 
Many of the U.S. government securities that the fund invests in are not backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government, which means they are neither issued nor guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. There can be no assurance that the U.S. government will provide financial support to securities of its agencies and instrumentalities if it is not obligated to do so under law. Also, any government guarantees on securities a fund owns do not extend to the shares of the fund itself.
 
The fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers or securities with credit or liquidity enhancements provided by foreign entities may involve certain risks that are greater than those associated with investments in securities of U.S. issuers or securities with credit or liquidity enhancements provided by U.S. entities. These include risks of adverse changes in foreign economic, political, regulatory and other conditions; differing accounting, auditing, financial reporting and legal standards and practices; differing securities market structures; and higher transaction costs. In addition, sovereign risk, or the risk that a government may become unwilling or unable to meet its loan obligations or guarantees, could increase the credit risk of financial institutions connected to that particular country.
 
Any actively managed mutual fund is subject to the risk that its investment adviser will make poor security selections. The fund’s investment adviser applies its own investment techniques and risk analyses in making investment decisions for the fund, but there can be no guarantee that they will produce the desired results. The investment adviser’s maturity decisions will also affect the fund’s yield, and in unusual circumstances potentially could affect its share price. To the extent that the investment adviser anticipates interest rate trends imprecisely, the fund’s yield at times could lag those of other money market funds.
 
Liquidity risk exists when particular investments are difficult to purchase or sell. The market for certain investments may become illiquid due to specific adverse changes in the conditions of a particular issuer or under adverse market or economic conditions independent of the issuer. The fund’s investments in illiquid securities may reduce the returns of the fund because it may be unable to sell the illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price. Further, transactions in illiquid securities may entail transaction costs that are higher than those for transactions in liquid securities.
 
The fund may experience periods of heavy redemptions that could cause the fund to liquidate its assets at inopportune times or at a loss or depressed value, particularly during periods of declining or illiquid markets. Redemptions by a few large investors in the fund may have a significant adverse effect on the fund’s ability to maintain a stable $1.00 share price. In the event any money market fund fails to maintain a stable net asset value, other money market funds, including the fund, could face a market-wide risk of increased redemption pressures, potentially jeopardizing the stability of their $1.00 share prices.
 
The fund is not designed to offer capital appreciation. In exchange for their emphasis on stability and liquidity, money market investments may offer lower long-term performance than stock or bond investments.
 
Please refer to the fund’s prospectus for a more complete description of the principal risks of investing in the fund.

4. Affiliates and Affiliated Transactions:
 
Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc. (“CSIM” or the “investment adviser”), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Charles Schwab Corporation, serves as the fund’s investment adviser and administrator pursuant to an Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement (“Advisory Agreement”) between CSIM and the trust.
 
For its advisory and administrative services to the fund, CSIM is entitled to receive an annual fee, payable monthly, based on a percentage of the fund’s average daily net assets as follows:
 
         
Average Daily Net Assets
   
 
First $1 billion
    0.35%  
More than $1 billion but not exceeding $10 billion
    0.32%  
More than $10 billion but not exceeding $20 billion
    0.30%  
More than $20 billion but not exceeding $40 billion
    0.27%  
Over $40 billion
    0.25%  
 
The Board of Trustees has adopted a Shareholder Servicing and Sweep Administration Plan (the “Plan”) on behalf of the fund. The Plan enables the fund to bear expenses relating to the provision by service providers, including Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (a broker-dealer affiliate of CSIM, “Schwab”), of certain account maintenance, customer liaison and shareholder services to the current shareholders of the fund. Schwab serves as the fund’s paying agent under the Plan for making payments of the shareholder service fee due to the service providers (other than Schwab) under the Plan. All shareholder service fees paid by the fund to Schwab in its capacity as the fund’s paying agent will be passed through to the service providers, and Schwab will not retain any portion of such fees. The Plan also enables the fund to pay Schwab for certain sweep administration services, such as processing of automatic purchases and redemptions it provides to fund shareholders invested in the fund.
 
Pursuant to the Plan, the fund’s shares are subject to an annual shareholder servicing fee of up to 0.25%. The shareholder servicing fee paid to a particular service provider is made pursuant to its written agreement with Schwab (or, in the case of payments made to Schwab, pursuant to Schwab’s written agreement with the fund), and the fund will pay no more than 0.25% of the average annual daily net asset value of the fund shares owned by shareholders holding shares through Schwab. Pursuant to the Plan, the fund’s shares are subject to an annual sweep administration fee of up to 0.15%. The sweep administration fee paid to Schwab is based on the average daily net asset value of the fund shares owned by shareholders holding shares through Schwab. Payments under the Plan are made as described above regardless of Schwab’s or the service provider’s actual cost of providing the services. If the cost of providing the services under the Plan is less than the payment received, the unexpended portion of the fees may be retained as profit by Schwab or the service provider.
 
Contractual Expense Limitation
 
Although these agreements specify certain fees for these services, CSIM and Schwab have made an additional agreement (“expense limitation”) with the fund, for so long as CSIM serves as the investment adviser to the fund, which may only be amended or terminated with the approval of the fund’s Board of Trustees, to limit the total annual fund operating expenses, excluding interest, taxes, and certain non-routine expenses to 0.66%.
 
In addition, effective January 1, 2011 through December 31, 2011, CSIM and Schwab agreed to waive an additional amount of the fund’s expenses equal to 0.035% of the fund’s average daily net assets.
 
Voluntary Expense Waiver/Reimbursement
 
In addition to the contractual expense limitation agreements noted above, Schwab and the investment adviser also may waive and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to maintain a positive net yield for the fund. Schwab and the investment adviser may recapture from the fund any of these expenses or fees they have waived and/or reimbursed until the third anniversary of the end of the fiscal year in which such waiver and/or reimbursement occurs, subject to certain limitations. These reimbursement payments by the fund to Schwab and/or the investment adviser are considered “non-routine expenses” and are not subject to any net operating expense limitations in effect at the time of such payment. This recapture could negatively affect

the fund’s future yield. There were no prior year amounts recaptured. As of December 31, 2011, the balance of recoupable expenses is as follows:

    $55,069,426       $109,025,081       $138,970,477       $303,064,984  
 
The fund may engage in direct transactions with certain other Schwab Funds when practical. When one fund is seeking to sell a security that another is seeking to buy, an interfund transaction can allow both funds to benefit by reducing transaction costs. This practice is limited to funds that share the same investment adviser, trustees and/or officers. For the period ended December 31, 2011, the fund’s aggregate security transactions with other Schwab Funds were $174,000,000.
 
Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the fund may enter into interfund borrowing and lending transactions with other Schwab Funds. All loans are for temporary or emergency purposes only. The interest rate charged on the loan is the average of the overnight repurchase agreement rate and the short-term bank loan rate. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review of the Board of Trustees of the Schwab Funds. The fund had no interfund borrowing or lending activity during the period.
 
On September 14, 2010, The Charles Schwab Corporation made a payment of $24,987,098 to Schwab Cash Reserves to cover the net remaining losses recognized as a result of its investment in a single structured investment vehicle that defaulted in 2008. This payment represented 0.1% of the fund’s net assets on that date.
 
5. Transfer Agent Services:
 
Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. (“BFDS”) provides transfer agent services for the fund.
 
6. Board of Trustees:
 
Trustees may include people who are officers and/or directors of the investment adviser or its affiliates. Federal securities law limits the percentage of such “interested persons” who may serve on a trust’s board, and the trust was in compliance with these limitations throughout the report period. The trust did not pay any of these interested persons for their services as trustees, but it did pay non-interested persons (independent trustees), as noted in the fund’s Statement of Operations.
 
7. Borrowing from Banks:
 
The fund has access to custodian overdraft facilities, a committed line of credit of $150 million with State Street Bank and Trust (“State Street”), an uncommitted line of credit of $100 million with Bank of America, N.A. and an uncommitted line of credit of $50 million with Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. The fund pays interest on the amount it borrows at rates that are negotiated periodically. The fund also pays an annual fee to State Street for the committed line of credit.
 
There were no borrowings from the lines of credit by the fund during the period. However, the fund may have utilized its overdraft facility and incurred interest expense, which is disclosed in the Statement of Operations, if any. The interest expense is determined based on a negotiated rate above the current Federal Funds Rate.
 
8. Federal Income Taxes:
 
As of December 31, 2011, the fund had no distributable earnings on a tax basis.
 
Capital loss carryforwards may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. As of December 31, 2011, the fund had capital loss carryforwards of $1,674,450 available to offset net capital gains before the expiration date of December 31, 2017.
 
For tax purposes, realized net capital losses incurred after October 31 may be deferred and treated as occurring on the first day of the following year. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the fund had no capital losses deferred and had $4,990 capital losses utilized.

Financial Notes (continued)
 
8. Federal Income Taxes (continued):
 
The tax-basis components of distributions paid during the current and prior fiscal years were:
 
         
Current period distributions
Ordinary income
    $20,685,419  
 
Prior period distributions
Ordinary income
    $22,051,852  
 
Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income and net realized gains determined on a tax basis, which may differ from net investment income and net realized gains for financial reporting purposes; there were no such differences in the current year. The fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year in which the net investment income and net realized gains are recorded by the fund for financial reporting purposes. The fund may also designate a portion of the amount paid to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for tax purposes.
 
Permanent book and tax basis differences may result in reclassifications between capital account and other accounts as required. The adjustments will have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. As of December 31, 2011, no such reclassifications were required.
 
As of December 31, 2011, management has reviewed the tax positions for open periods (for federal purposes, three years from the date of filing and for state purposes, four years from the date of filing) as applicable to the fund, and has determined that no provision for income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements. The fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period ended December 31, 2011, the fund did not incur any interest or penalties.
 
On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (“the Act”) was signed by the President. The Act is the first major piece of legislation affecting Regulated Investment Companies (“RICs”) since 1986 and it modernizes several of the federal income and excise tax provisions related to RICs.
 
Certain of the enacted provisions include:
 
Post-enactment capital losses may now be carried forward indefinitely, but must retain the character of the original loss. Under pre-enactment law, capital losses could be carried forward for eight years, and carried forward as short-term capital, irrespective of the character of the original loss. The Act contains simplification provisions, which are aimed at preventing disqualification of a RIC for “inadvertent” failures of the asset diversification and/or qualifying income tests. Additionally, the Act exempts RICs from the preferential dividend rule, and repeals the 60-day designation requirement for certain types of pay-through income and gains.
 
Finally, the Act contains several provisions aimed at preserving the character of distributions made by a fiscal year RIC during the portion of its taxable year ending after October 31 or December 31, reducing the circumstances under which a RIC might be required to file amended Forms 1099 to restate previously reported distributions.
 
Except for the simplification provisions related to RIC qualification, the Act is effective for taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010. The provisions related to RIC qualification are effective for taxable years for which the extended due date of the tax return is after December 22, 2010.

Management has determined there are no subsequent events or transactions through the date the financial statements were issued that would have materially impacted the financial statements as presented.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
 
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of:
Schwab Cash Reserves
 
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio holdings, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Schwab Cash Reserves (one of the portfolios constituting The Charles Schwab Family of Funds, hereafter referred to as the “Fund”) at December 31, 2011, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2011 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

1 Trustees remain in office until they resign, retire or are removed by shareholder vote. The Schwab Funds® retirement policy requires that independent trustees elected after January 1, 2000 retire at age 72 or after twenty years as a trustee, whichever comes first. In addition, the Schwab Funds retirement policy also requires any independent trustee of the Schwab Funds who also serves as an independent trustee of the Laudus Funds to retire from the Boards of the Schwab Funds upon their required retirement date from either the Boards of Trustees of the Schwab Funds or the Laudus Funds, whichever comes first.
2 Mr. Schwab and Mr. Bettinger are Interested Trustees because they are employees of Schwab and/or the investment adviser. In addition to their employment with Schwab and/or the investment adviser, Messrs. Schwab and Bettinger also own stock of The Charles Schwab Corporation.
3 The President, Treasurer and Secretary hold office until their respective successors are chosen and qualified or until he or she sooner dies, resigns, is removed or becomes disqualified. Each of the other officers serves at the pleasure of the Board.

Glossary
 
 
agency discount notes Notes issued by federal agencies—known as Government Sponsored Enterprises, or GSEs—at a discount to their value at maturity. An agency discount note is a short-term investment alternative offering a high degree of credit quality.
 
asset-backed commercial paper A short-term investment that is typically issued by a bank or other financial institution. The notes represent an interest in financial assets such as trade receivables, credit card receivables, auto receivables, etc. and are generally used for the short-term financing needs of companies.
 
Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index A broad-based benchmark that measures the investment grade, U.S. dollar-denominated, fixed-rate taxable bond market, including Treasuries, government-related and corporate securities, mortgage-back securities (agency fixed-rate and hybrid ARM passthroughs), asset-backed securities, and commercial mortgage-backed securities.
 
Barclays Capital U.S. TIPS Index (Series-L) A rules-based, market value-weighted index that tracks inflation-protected securities issued by the U.S. Treasury that have at least one year remaining to maturity, are rated investment grade and have $250 million or more of outstanding face value.
 
capital gain, capital loss The difference between the amount paid for an investment and its value at a later time. If the investment has been sold, the capital gain or loss is considered a realized gain or loss. If the investment is still held, the gain or loss is still “on paper” and is considered unrealized.
 
commercial paper Promissory notes issued by banks, corporations and other entities to finance short-term credit needs. These securities generally are structured on a discounted basis but sometimes may be interest-bearing notes. Commercial paper, which may be unsecured, is subject to credit risk.
 
corporate note An unsecured debt security issued by a corporation that is subject to the credit risk of the issuer.
 
credit-enhanced securities Securities that are backed by the credit of an entity other than the issuer (such as a financial institution). Credit enhancements, which can equal up to 100% of the security’s value, are designed to help lower the risk of default on a security and may also make the security more liquid.
 
credit quality The capacity of an issuer to make its interest and principal payments. Federal regulations strictly regulate the credit quality of the securities a money market fund can buy.
 
credit ratings Debt issuers, including corporations, states and municipalities, may arrange with a recognized independent rating organization, such as Standard & Poor’s, Fitch, Inc. and Moody’s Investor Service, to rate their creditworthiness and/or the creditworthiness of their debt issues. For example, an issuer may obtain a long-term rating within the investment grade rating category, which is, from high to low, AAA, AA, A and BBB for Standard & Poor’s and Fitch, and Aaa, Aa, A and Baa for Moody’s.
 
credit risk The risk that a debt issuer may be unable to pay interest or repay principal to its debt holders.
 
dollar-weighted average maturity (DWAM) See weighted average maturity.
 
effective yield A measurement of a fund’s yield that assumes that all interest income is reinvested in additional shares of the fund.
 
expense ratio The amount that is taken from a mutual fund’s assets each year to cover the fund’s operating expenses. An expense ratio of 0.50% means that a fund’s expenses amount to half of one percent of its average net assets for the year.
 
face value The value of a bond, note, mortgage or other security as given on the certificate or instrument. Face value is also referred to as par value or nominal value.
 
illiquid securities Securities are generally considered illiquid if they cannot be disposed of promptly (typically within seven days) and in the ordinary course of business at approximately the amount at which a fund has valued the instruments.
 
interest Payments to holders of debt securities as compensation for loaning a security’s principal to the issuer.
 
liquidity-enhanced security The security’s structure includes a liquidity arrangement that requires an entity other than the issuer (such as a large financial institution) to provide funds to pay a tender under most circumstances. Liquidity enhancements are often used on variable-rate securities where the portfolio manager has an option to tender the securities for repayment within a specified time period (usually one day or one week) at any time prior to their final maturity.
 
maturity The date a debt security is scheduled to be “retired” and its principal amount repaid. The Maturity of an investment will generally reflect the security’s final maturity date unless the security’s structure includes a maturity-shortening provision such as an interest rate reset, demand feature or put feature (the “Effective Maturity Date”). For those securities with a maturity-shortening provision, including variable-rate demand securities, the Maturity is determined by using the Effective Maturity Date, as permitted by Rule 2a-7.
 
MSCI EAFE (Europe, Australasia, Far East) Index A free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets, excluding the US & Canada.
 
municipal securities Debt securities issued by a state, its counties, municipalities, authorities and other subdivisions, or the territories and possessions of the United States and the District of Columbia, including their subdivisions, agencies and instrumentalities and corporations. These securities may be issued to obtain money for various public purposes, including the construction of a wide range of public facilities such as airports, bridges, highways, housing, hospitals, mass transportation, public utilities, schools, streets, and water and sewer works.
 
net asset value per share (NAV) The value of one share of a mutual fund. NAV is calculated by taking the fund’s total assets, subtracting liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding. Money funds seek to maintain a steady NAV of $1.00.
 
outstanding shares, shares outstanding When speaking of a company or mutual fund, indicates all shares currently held by investors.
 
restricted securities Securities that are subject to contractual restrictions on resale. These securities are often purchased in private placement transactions.
 
S&P 500 Index A market capitalization index that is designed to measure the performance of 500 leading publicly held companies in leading industries of the U.S. economy.

section 3c7 securities Section 3c7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) exempts certain issuers from many regulatory requirements applicable to investment companies under the 1940 Act. An issuer whose outstanding securities are exclusively owned by “qualified purchasers” and who is not making or proposing to make a public offering of the securities may qualify for this exemption.
 
section 4(2)/144A securities Securities exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. These securities may be sold only to qualified institutional buyers under Securities Act Rule 144A.
 
taxable-equivalent yield The yield an investor would need to get from a taxable investment in order to match the yield paid by a given tax-exempt investment, once the effect of all applicable taxes is taken into account. For example, if your tax rate were 25%, a tax-exempt investment paying 4.5% would have a taxable-equivalent yield for you of 6.0% (4.5% ¸ [1 − 0.25%] = 6.0%).
 
Tier 1, Tier 2 Tier 1 is the highest category of credit quality, Tier 2 the second highest. A security’s tier can be established either by an independent rating organization or by a determination of the investment adviser. Money market fund shares and U.S. government securities are automatically considered Tier 1 securities. The Schwab Money Funds only purchase securities which are considered to be Tier 1; however, they may hold Tier 2 securities as a result of a downgrade of a portfolio security.
 
total return The percentage that an investor would have earned or lost on an investment in the fund assuming dividends and distributions were reinvested.
 
weighted average life (WAL) For money market mutual funds as per rule 2a-7, the weighted average life calculation takes into account either the final maturity date for each security held in the portfolio or, when relevant, the date of the next demand feature (when the fund is scheduled to receive payment of principal and interest after a demand). Money funds are required to maintain a weighted average life of no more than 120 days. Weighted average life for all Schwab money market funds is available in each fund’s monthly schedule of portfolio holdings at www.schwabfunds.com/prospectus and also available in each fund’s Form N-MFP on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov 60 days after the end of the month to which the information pertains.
 
weighted average maturity (WAM) For money market mutual funds as per rule 2a-7, the maturity date or Effective Maturity Date (see definition of maturity) of all the debt securities in its portfolio, or the date the interest rate on those securities is reset, or the date those securities can be redeemed through demand, calculated as a weighted average. As a rule, the longer a fund’s weighted average maturity, the greater its interest rate risk. Money funds are required to maintain a weighted average maturity of no more than 60 days.
 
yield The income paid out by an investment, expressed as a percentage of the investments market value.
