While Hillary Clinton served as secretary of state, her health care organization doubled the amount of grant money it received from foreign governments.

The New York-based Clinton Health Access Initiative, which aims to charitably lower health care costs in underdeveloped countries, doubled its grant money from $26.7 million to $55.9 million between 2010 and 2013, The Boston Globe reports — and almost all of the money came from overseas.

The information is interesting in light of Clinton’s lobbying of foreign governments on behalf of Clinton Foundation donors like Boeing and Chevron, which was the subject of a Wall Street Journal investigation.
