Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation

We are optimists, aiding in removing the barriers that limit people from reaching their full potential. In developing countries, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation focuses on improving people’s health and giving them the chance to lift themselves out of hunger and extreme poverty. In the United States, it seeks to ensure that all people—especially those with the fewest resources—have access to the opportunities they need to succeed in school and life.
