The '''Wallace Global Fund''' "is guided by the vision of the late [[Henry A. Wallace]], former Secretary of Agriculture and Vice-President under [[Franklin D. Roosevelt]]. Committed to serving the general welfare, his life exemplified farsightedness, global vision, and receptivity to new ideas. He was keenly interested in scientific innovation as a force to enhance human well-being and had an abiding faith in the individual's spirit and capacity to bring about sound and just social change. The Fund was established by his son, [[Robert B. Wallace]] (1918-2002) in 1995, and grew out of the [[Wallace Genetic Foundation]], founded in 1965 by Henry A. Wallace.
"The mission of the Wallace Global Fund is to promote an informed and engaged citizenry, to fight injustice, and to protect the diversity of nature and the natural systems upon which all life depends." <ref>[http://wgf.org/history.htmlFund History], Wallace Global Fund, accessed July 7, 2007.</ref>
