Self-Description: The mission of the William J. Clinton Foundation is to strengthen the capacity of people in the United States and throughout the world to meet the challenges of global interdependence. To advance this mission, the Clinton Foundation has developed programs and partnerships in the following areas: Health Security Economic Empowerment Leadership Development and Citizen Service Racial, Ethnic and Religious Reconciliation.  In August 2006, President Clinton launched the Clinton Climate Initiative. The first project announced by CCI was its work with 40 of the largest cities in the world. CCI will commence project in key cities around the world in the fields of energy efficiency, public transportation, and renewable energy.

Actual: To avoid potential conflicts, the Obama administration signed a memorandum of understanding on December 12, 2008 with the William J. Clinton Foundation, represented by its chief executive, Bruce R. Lindsey. The five-page memorandum required Mr. Clinton to disclose his past donors by the end of the year and any future contributors once a year. The memorandum also required that the Clinton Global Initiative be incorporated separately, will no longer hold events outside the United States and will refuse any further contributions from foreign governments. The foundation and any offshoots must follow new rules and consult with State Department ethics officials in specific cases.

Origin of the Wealth: Some of the world’s richest people, most famous celebrities, and strategic governments have funded former President Bill Clinton's charitable activities. The list had been kept a close secret until the Obama administration made it a condition of Hillary Rodham Clinton's appointment as secretary of state to reveal all donors. Saudi Arabia alone gave to the foundation $10 million to $25 million, as did government aid agencies in Australia and the Dominican Republic. Brunei, Kuwait, Norway, Oman, Qatar and Taiwan each gave more than $1 million. So did the ruling family of Abu Dhabi and the Dubai Foundation, both based in the United Arab Emirates, and the Friends of Saudi Arabia, founded by a Saudi prince.
