US EditionMore than 80 nonprofits receive $250M for global women’s health from Melinda French Gates
Melinda French Gates granted $250 million to over 80 global women’s health nonprofits after a year-long process, part of a $1 billion effort to address health inequalities, Lever for Change said.
- On Wednesday, Melinda French Gates awarded $250 million in grants to more than 80 global women’s health organizations after a year-long application process.
- Lever for Change ran the open competition that drew more than 4,000 organizations from 119 countries, part of a $1 billion commitment to support women's rights over two years.
- Grants range between $1 million and $5 million, with the Likhaan Center for Women's Health, Philippines, receiving $5 million representing 10 years of funding at its current budget.
- Recipients said the funding affirms their community-based models and sparked joy, with Lisel Lifshitz calling it `transformative` and saying `Having this kind of trust-based and unrestricted funding means the world to us`.
- Amid funding shortfalls in 2025, the awards come as two expected grants failed due to foreign aid cuts and policy changes, while experts warn persistent inequalities in women's health outcomes remain.
