Recently, a renowned journalist Glenn Gamboa tweeted on X (formally known as Twitter) about the annual event, “Prince Harry, Matt Damon, Jose Andrés set to speak at @ClintonGlobal in NYC about #WhatsWorking in the world.”
Later on, Bill retweeted the post and wrote, “This year’s @ClintonGlobal is going to be a great meeting. Let’s get to work!”
The reporter also shared the former president’s stance saying “@BillClinton: ‘It’s more important than ever to be optimistic and realize we all have the ability to make a difference.’ #philanthropy”
As per Washington Times, Bill said this year’s Clinton Global Initiative would “double down” on the progress made on the climate crisis, global health, gun violence, and other important issues.”
He explained, “We started CGI because we wanted to have a meeting where people didn’t just talk about big problems, but where we could roll up our sleeves and get something done. It’s more important than ever to be optimistic and realize we all have the ability to make a difference.”
The major news comes a few days after Harry was spotted in the U.K for his uncle's funeral.
