"I want to give people like you who have more tomorrows than yesterdays a chance to be a part of this at an early stage. I want you to own this... I want you to be proud. I want you to talk to people about what you did here tonight. This is more rewarding in some ways than anything I've ever done." - President Clinton.
Inspired by President Clinton’s vision to encourage the next generation of leaders and philanthropists to address global challenges, the William J. Clinton Foundation Millennium Network invites individuals age 45 and under to get involved in the work of the Clinton Foundation – fighting HIV/AIDS and climate change, combating the childhood obesity epidemic in the United States, and promoting economic development worldwide.
The Millennium Network isn’t about talk – though there’s plenty of lively discussion. At its core, the Network is a platform for action, giving emerging philanthropists a way to support a Foundation that has already achieved measurable and positive results.
Millennium Network members connect through online forums, plan and participate in networking and fundraising events, and access the most updated news and information about the Clinton Foundation. To get involved, join the Millennium Network cause on Facebook.

Where We’ve Been
The Millennium Network has held several receptions in cities on both coasts – including San Francisco, New York City, and Los Angeles - and in London. Young celebrities, including Jessica Alba and Adrian Grenier came out to celebrate the launch of the L.A. premiere of the Network. In New York, John Legend and will.i.am have performed for sold-out crowds. And our first event held abroad, in London, featured a performance by Joss Stone.
