A crash course in changing the world.
Bill Gates
He changed the world once with his software “Windows”. Now he tries it with his foundation “Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation“(http://www.gatesfoundation.org), which is the largest charitable foundation in the world, again. The foundation having given over $30 billion to charity projects like vaccinations with GAVI (http://www.gavialliance.org/). He uses his influence and contacts to promote his foundation and other charity projects. With his friend Warren Buffet he has started a project called the giving pledge (www.givingpledge.org). “The giving pledge is an effort to invite the wealthiest individuals in America to commit to giving the majority of their wealth to philanthropy”. More than 40 billionaires participate already.
