Magellan Corporation was delighted to serve as a Gold Sponsor for a presentation by Melinda Gates hosted by the Executives' Club of Chicago. The luncheon program was part of their Women in Leadership Series. Melinda discussed her newly released book, “The Moment of Lift: How Empowering Women Changes the World.”

She shared her many experiences through life’s travels and how the sexual discrimination she and other women face and the considerations of breaking down barriers of inequality inspired her to write.

She encouraged the audience of 1,000+ to “challenge the status quo…everyone is better and lifted when we do the right thing and be inclusive.” It is a critical tenet of Magellan Corporation's giving to support initiatives that bolster equality and promote the advancement of women.

Magellan is firm in our commitment to support organizations that promote equality and offer women and girls opportunities for advancement in STEM, business, cultural opportunities, athletics, and across the board.
