Report have emerged that Bill Gates, one of the wealthiest individuals globally, has made a major financial contribution to support Kamala Harris in her bid for the U.S. Presidency.
The donation, amounting to $50 million, was directed to Future Forward USA Action, a nonprofit organization backing Harris. This group is characterized as a "dark money" entity, meaning it does not disclose its donors' identities, thus keeping Gates' contribution confidential.
The information about Gates' donation was initially highlighted by The New York Times, which noted that despite the confidentiality, Gates has not publicly endorsed Harris.
However, he has articulated his support for candidates who prioritize healthcare improvement, poverty alleviation, and climate change mitigation—issues that align with Harris's platform.
Gates' decision to donate to Harris's campaign reflects his broader commitment to these policy areas, which he believes are crucial in the current election cycle.
His ex-wife, Melinda French Gates, has also publicly endorsed Harris, joining a cohort of at least 81 other billionaires supporting her campaign against Republican candidate Donald Trump.
