Our borders look more like nets than walls; the free movement of people, ideas, wealth, and talent is expanding our understanding of what’s possible and proving how deeply our social and economic fates are intertwined. But this interdependence has brought us challenges, too. Half of the world’s population lives on less than $2 a day. Too much instability is inhibiting positive growth. And the way we produce and consume energy cannot be sustained. The good news is we can all do something to make things better. All over the world, wherever poverty is being reduced, health care is being improved, the economy is more vibrant, and sustainable solutions are taking root – these changes are being driven by networks of creative cooperation. When the Clinton Foundation’s work began 11 years ago, we knew that we could make more progress working with other people than working alone. We started by trying to lower the cost of HIV/AIDS medicines in the developing world and get more people on lifesaving treatment. By collaborating with governments on the demand side and pharmaceutical companies on the supply side, we’ve been able to help more than five million people access treatment – more than half of the eight million people on treatment worldwide. We’ve since taken this approach and applied it to other critical challenges. Together with governments, businesses, individuals, and NGOs we’re providing tools and resources to help people – from farmers in Africa to small business owners across the United States and Latin America – build stronger and more sustainable communities. We’re collaborating with the food and beverage industries to help students and staff in U.S. schools get healthy. For example, beverage calories shipped to schools have dropped by 90 percent. We’re also working to increase the adoption of green technology and clean energy solutions at all levels, from homeowners and building owners to municipal and national governments. Through the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI), we provide a platform for more of these innovative partnerships to take shape. To date, the more than 2,300 commitments made by CGI members are improving the lives of more than 400 million people in more than 180 countries. We’ve extended these platforms to focus on specific sectors, and next year I’ll be able to report on our first CGI meeting in Latin America. These successes require us to continue working where we can make a difference, and to form new networks to address other challenges. In 2012, building upon the success of our Health Matters: Activating Wellness in Every Generation conference earlier in the year, we launched the Clinton Health Matters Initiative to engage individuals, communities, and businesses in making health and wellness a priority. After the Tri-State area suffered the devastating effects of Hurricane Sandy, with the help of friends and partners in the area, we brought together more than 1,000 volunteers to clean up the Rockaways in New York as part of a Clinton Foundation and Clinton Global Initiative Day of Action. We hope we can provide more opportunities for service in the coming months. When we began, none of us could have imagined how far the Foundation’s work would reach, or that a staff of 14 in Harlem would grow to more than 2,100 staff and volunteers in 50 countries. They have made a real impact thanks to our committed supporters, partners, and friends – our most important network of creative cooperation. Since the Foundation’s inception, Hillary, Chelsea, and I have shared ideas about how to further the Foundation’s work. Chelsea has been increasingly active in advancing our efforts over the last two years. And now Hillary, who was the first member of our family to be active in NGO work even before we married, has her own plans to make a difference. So we’ve renamed the Foundation the Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation. I hope that you will continue to work alongside all of us, and I thank you for believing that, together, we can make a meaningful and measurable difference in the lives of millions. Sincerely, President Clinton, Secretary Clinton, and Chelsea Clinton Barbara Kinney / Clinton Global Initiative Founder, Clinton Foundation at the 2011 Clinton Global 42nd President of the United States Initiative Annual Meeting.
