Bill Gates Announces Gates Foundation Shutdown, Fuels Fears of Accelerated Global Agenda

Bill Gates confirmed on Thursday that his Gates Foundation “will close its doors permanently” on December 31, 2045—the same day reports surfaced that 260 South African children were infected with tuberculosis during a study funded by his organization.

According to a post on GatesNotes.com titled “My new deadline: 20 years to give away virtually all my wealth,” the globalist billionaire outlined his plan to “give away virtually all my wealth” within two decades.

“During the first 25 years of the Gates Foundation, we gave away more than $100 billion. Over the next two decades, we will double our giving,” Gates wrote.

“I will give away virtually all my wealth through the Gates Foundation over the next 20 years to the cause of saving and improving lives around the world. And on December 31, 2045, the foundation will close its doors permanently.”

Critics called the article self-congratulatory and narcissistic, noting how he “read[s] a lot of books” as part of a tone that appeared more boastful than humble.

Those opposed to his controversial population control initiatives—such as his stated aim to “lower [the world population] by, perhaps, 10 or 15 percent”—are now viewing the announcement as a potential turning point, though some remain cautious.

Still, Gates appears confident he will meet his goals:

“This is a change from our original plans. When Melinda and I started the Gates Foundation in 2000, we included a clause in the foundation’s very first charter:

The organization would sunset several decades after our deaths. A few years ago, I began to rethink that approach.

More recently, with the input from our board, I now believe we can achieve the foundation’s goals on a shorter timeline, especially if we double down on key investments and provide more certainty to our partners.”

He believes it’s achievable because “[o]ver the next two decades, we will double our giving,” and predicts the foundation “will spend more than $200 billion between now and 2045.”

Gates added that he still “look[s] forward to filling my days with strategy reviews, meetings with partners, and learning trips for as long as I can,” while continuing to pursue a more “equitable” world—a term critics argue is often used to mask ideological and anti-Western policies.

“Over the next twenty years, the foundation will work together with our partners to make as much progress towards our vision of a more equitable world as possible,” Gates stated.

He now plans to focus on “vaccines and medicines, and we know how to get them to the people who need them most thanks to organizations like Gavi and the Global Fund.”

Despite Gates’ claim that the foundation has been “making huge progress on tuberculosis,” the recent study involving infected South African children raises serious questions.

While the Gates Foundation’s planned shutdown might seem like reason for celebration among critics, many believe it signals an accelerated phase of his agenda—one marked by increased funding, broader influence, and deeper reach into global health and policy initiatives.
