Computers were not enough for the Gates Foundation.  It seems they have decided it’s time to change the world, and they are starting in Seattle, Washington.  They are making a clear effort to improve global health through funding research.  For example, a filter has just been designed to bring clean water to rural Africa.  This funding to research and non-profits has also been able to create thousands of jobs for the people of Washington.  Currently there are 12 thousand jobs working to improve global health in Washington alone! Find out what else Washington and the Gate Foundation are doing to change the world here.
