About Bill Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation
The Bill Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation’s recent grantmaking shows a strong emphasis on early childhood learning alongside education, public health, climate, and leadership work. One of its largest recent grants went to the University of Arkansas Clinton School of Public Service, which received $1,875,000 in 2025 and another $1,120,000 in 2024. That same school also appears again in the recent grants list with a smaller 2023 award, pointing to a continuing relationship rather than a single isolated gift. The foundation also backed the Presidential Leadership Scholars Program through a $440,000 grant to VentureWell, reflecting its interest in leadership and civic service development. Other grants support public health and climate-related work, including organizations tied to health equity and climate resilience. Across the recent list, the foundation appears to use programmatic grants to support partnerships, convenings, and direct service efforts connected to its active initiatives such as Clinton Global Initiative and Too Small to Fail. The pattern is consistent with a funder that combines institutional support in Arkansas with national grantmaking across several issue areas.
What Bill Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation Funds
Early childhood learning is one of the clearest themes in the recent grants. Tree House Books received $28,000 in 2025 for early childhood learning, while The Free Library of Philadelphia Foundation received $20,000 in 2023 for the same area. The foundation also made a cluster of $16,600 grants in 2023 to organizations including Macedonia Family and Community Enrichment Center, Neighborhood North Museum of Play, and Reading Ready Pittsburgh, all tagged early childhood learning. Public health shows up through a $125,000 grant to Alliance for a Healthier Generation in 2023. Climate-related work appears in the $65,000 grant to Rocky Mountain Institute in 2023 and the $25,000 grant to Coastal Protection Solutions Inc in 2024 for climate and economic development. Leadership and civic service is reflected in the $440,000 award to VentureWell in 2023.
How Bill Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation Gives
Typical grants cluster in the mid-five-figure range, with a p25 of $10,000, median of $16,600, and p75 of $25,000. The recent list also includes several much larger awards, especially to the University of Arkansas Clinton School of Public Service. The same recipient appears in multiple years, which suggests some recurring institutional support rather than purely one-time giving. The foundation is a programmatic funder, not an individual-giving vehicle, and it does not make program-related investments. Its active initiatives indicate partnership-based grantmaking and affiliated programs rather than an open application model; one program, Overdose Aid Kits, is listed as accepting unsolicited requests.
