Warren Buffet Donates $1.5 Billion to the Gates Foundation
The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation just got a $1.5 billion infusion.
Warren Buffet, the third-richest person in the world, gave 19.34 million shares of his insurance and investment company, Berkshire Hathaway Inc., to the charitable organization, which was created by Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates and his wife to help address the world's education, health and poverty problems.
