Buffer, Turner to Join Bill and Melinda Gates

LOGAN Utah – Bill and Melinda Gates are joining forces with Ted Turner to help the World Health Organization (W.H.O.) to help educate the people of Africa with knowledge about diseases and cleanliness. “We will be working with W.H.O. to help educate African people on health, teach them how to finish so we can leave them (Africans) better off.” Bill Gates said. This is Gate’s first time working with Turner and said, “We have similar goals” and there is “no competition between the two.”

African Mayor, Malik Ok, whose country is not disclosed, seemed very thankful for the help they are receiving from the foundation. “I met with all three of them (Bill, Melinda, Turner) mostly to gain a fell for what they wanted to accomplish.” Ok also stated they have “lots of diseases the foundation is looking to eradicate.”

Gates mentioned a former press release will be held in a couple of weeks about what they will be doing in Africa. The trio will be joined by Warren Buffet, who will also be supporting the foundation to see that their goals set for the people of Africa will be a success and they will continue to take care of themselves long after they leave. Ted Turner had no comment when asked about the trip.

Hey, good job. You included a lot of information, and it's good that you remembered the stuff about Turner. I completely forgot to put it in!
