Dear Friend,
These are times that put us to the test. And these are times that demand we recommit to help each other.
In his statement following the tragic death of George Floyd, President Clinton asked us all to think about how we can see each other as equally deserving of life, liberty, respect, and dignity — regardless of the color of one’s skin; how we can expand the definition of us and shrink the definition of them; and how we can move past the "divide and conquer" world we’re living in to work together and make a difference.
We have considerable work to do as a country. We may never be perfect, but we can — and must — be better, and the Clinton Foundation is committed to being part of that.
In the coming months, with your help, the Foundation along with World Central Kitchen, the City of Little Rock, and other partners will continue to help our neighbors struggling with food insecurity in Central Arkansas — building on the more than 450,000 meals provided since the COVID-19 pandemic started.
Through our early learning initiative, Too Small to Fail, we will continue to partner with leading organizations to meaningfully engage families in underserved communities and provide them with educational resources to help their children learn and thrive from birth.
We will continue to support CGI University students from around the globe who, in the last month, have submitted more than 1,400 proposals to address pressing challenges facing their communities, such as providing equal access to health care, creating inclusive economic opportunity, and responding to COVID-19.
And to enable this work, the Clinton family will match every dollar you give to the Foundation with one of their own, up to $100,000. If you are in a position to help, I hope you will join them and make a gift today.

As President Clinton has often said: Everyone deserves a chance to succeed, everyone has a responsibility to act, and we all do better when we work together. And we remain committed to that approach.
Thank you for being a part of our Clinton Foundation family.
Take good care.
Kevin Thurm
Chief Executive Officer
