The Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation is an American foundation established by Intel co-founder Gordon E. Moore and his wife Betty I. Moore in September 2000[2] to support scientific discovery, environmental conservation, patient care improvements and preservation of the character of the San Francisco Bay Area.

As outlined in the Statement of Founder's Intent,[3] the foundation's aim is to tackle large, important issues at a scale where it can achieve significant and measurable impacts.

According to the OECD, the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation provided USD 60 million for development in 2020 by means of grants.[4]
