Gates turns to Twitter for advice on how to give away $50,000 - Sectors | The Irish Times - Fri, Jun 13, 2014: Bill Gates, the world’s wealthiest man and an advocate of philanthropic giving, has turned to his 16.2 million Twitter followers to solicit ideas for how to give away $50,000.
Gates was responding to a DealBook article on college courses in philanthropy that require students to give away real money to no-profit organisations.
Gates has reduced his own giving to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation over the last decade, DealBook reported last month. A spokesman for Gates pointed to the challenge of distributing big donations where they can be most effective.
