and contraception
By THALIA BEATY
Associated Press
NEW YORK (AP) — The Bill
& Melinda Gates Founda-
tion pledged $200 million
to help save the lives of
mothers and children dur-
ing childbirth, as the larg-
est American philanthropic
donor throws its weight be-
hind the issue during the
nonprofit’s annual Goal-
keepers conference on
the sidelines of the U.N.
General Assembly.
Melinda French Gates,
who says the issue is per-
sonal to her, smiled broad-
ly as she introduced herself
not just as the co-founder
and co-chair of the foun-
dation but as “Nona,” or
grandmother, gesturing to
her oldest daughter, Jenni-
fer, who was seated in the
audience in New York on
Wednesday.
