The William J. Clinton Foundation focuses on worldwide issues that demand urgent action, solutions, and measurable results — global climate change, HIV/AIDS in the developing world, childhood obesity and economic opportunity in the United States, and economic development in Africa and Latin America.

After he left the White House, President Clinton wanted the Clinton Foundation to focus on the areas where he could make the most difference as a private citizen. The Foundation has grown into a global 501©(3) nongovernmental organization with 1,100 staff and volunteers in more than 40 countries and with offices in New York City, Little Rock, Ark., Boston, Mass., and other cities around the world. The Foundation, working in collaboration with governments and other partners, makes a significant impact in the lives of hundreds of millions of people around the world through its seven initiatives:

• Alliance for a Healthier Generation
• Clinton Climate Initiative
• Clinton Economic Opportunity Initiative
• Clinton Giustra Sustainable Growth Initiative
• Clinton Global Initiative
• Clinton HIV/AIDS Initiative
• Clinton Hunter Development Initiative
