Tory Burch wants to help women add $1 billion to the economy by 2030

So far her foundation is 47% of the way there.

In 2004, the designer Tory Burch launched her first store specializing in women’s apparel in Manhattan. She and her ex-husband, the retailer and investor Christopher Burch, funded it by pooling $2 million of their own money. Later, Christopher helped her raise another $10 million. Today, her Reva ballet flats and handbags are so popular, they’ve become closet staples. The eponymous brand has over 370 stores across the globe and generates about $1.8 billion in revenue, and Burch is a billionaire.
