“For too long, a lack of money has forced organisations fighting for women’s rights into a defensive posture while the enemies of progress play offense. I want to help even the match.”
Melinda recently announced her departure from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to pursue a “new chapter of her philanthropy.” Her organisation, Pivotal Ventures, combines charitable giving, investments, and advocacy to accelerate social progress. As part of this new chapter, she is committing an additional $1 billion through 2026 to advance women’s power globally.
