I updated on 4.29 and 4.30:
- In the intro, I added another line of description to reflect the Foundation's recent climate action work.
- In the Programs section, I added "and climate action" to the first sentence, to reflect the Foundation's work more accurately. The source is the same as the above - the Lemelson Foundation website.
- In the Initiatives section, I removed a broken link and replaced with correct link to Foundation website.

- Removed “over $185 million” and added “over $300 million.” in the Programs section
- The previous number was outdated and incorrect. On their website they state they have provided more than $300 million.

I made several updates to this page on 12.21. I also added information so the page would more accurately represent the foundation's current work.
- Added About section with organization's mission and purpose.
- Edited Initiatives supported in the United States –> Current initiatives. Added Oregon MESA, changed NCIAA to VentureWell (this is their new name), added Villgro, added SELCO, Gearbox, and NESsT Peru. These represent initiatives both in the US and in developing countries.
- Changed the section Developing countries programs and projects –> Past projects. The information stayed the same, but the foundation's website includes these projects on their "history" page, indicating to me that these are outdated.
- I also added footnotes to document my sources and updated old links in these sections where possible.
- Changed external links embedded in the content into footnotes, per wiki best practices (mostly in Activities).
- I deleted the Promotional tag as I believe I resolved the promotional content by removing promotional language and removing external links.

- Updated Origins to reflect information currently available with appropriate references.
- Renamed the section heading Activities to Programs in order to distinguish it from the later section Initiatives.
- Updated Programs to reflect the foundation's current theory of change and removed information that was redundant with other sections.
- Added footnotes and links where possible.
