Trump Budget to Include $100M for Ivanka's Women's Fund

https://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/national-international/Trump-Budget-to-Include-100M-for-Ivankas-Womens-Fund-506873251.html?_osource=SocialFlowFB_BAYBrand

President 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.
