https://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/national-international/Trump-Budget-to-Include-100M-for-Ivankas-Womens-Fund-506873251.html?_osource=SocialFlowFB_BAYBrandPresident Donald Trump's 2020 budget proposal will include $100 million for a global women's fund spearheaded by his daughter Ivanka Trump.
She said the budget, expected to be released Monday, will include the funding for the Women's Global Development and Prosperity Initiative. The administration last month launched the government-wide project, which she leads.
In a statement to The Associated Press, Ivanka Trump noted that Friday was International Women's Day and stressed the initiative's goal to help 50 million women in the developing world get ahead economically over the next six years.

where Jared is coming up with the money to keep 666 from getting repo'd. You KNOW these individuals will skim everything they can just to say they did.

And why would this money be spent "in the developing world" when America could do a lot better by the children living in poverty here?
