The $40 million grant from the Gates Foundation is the largest challenge grant in Carter Center history. It includes an outright contribution of $8 million and encourages other donor organizations and individuals to provide an additional $32 million, which the Gates Foundation will match one-to-one. The successful completion of the challenge will raise $72 million to finish Guinea worm eradication. Since 2000, the Gates Foundation has been a valued partner in the Center's Guinea Worm Eradication Program, inspiring an outpouring of contributions from the donor community during this landmark effort.
