Warren Buffett to Give Bulk of Fortune to Gates Foundation

June 27, 2006

Warren Buffett, the second wealthiest man in the country, will donate the bulk of his $44 billion fortune to the foundation of the wealthiest, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and four other philanthropies starting in July, the New York Times reports.

Buffett, chairman of Berkshire Hathaway, Inc., plans to contribute 85 percent — about $37.4 billion — of his Berkshire stock to charity, with approximately $31 billion directed to the Gates Foundation, effectively doubling the asset base of the largest foundation in the United States. Buffett will divide the remaining $6 billion among four Buffett family foundations: the Susan Thompson Buffett Foundation, named after his late wife; the Howard G. Buffett Foundation, named after and run by one of his sons; the Susan A. Buffett Foundation, named after and run by his daughter; and the NoVo Foundation, which is headed by his son Peter.
