Philanthropy is the altruistic donation of charitable aid or financial donations for the betterment of human welfare. Habitually associated with the wealthy or famous, these substantial donations are normally distributed by foundations or trusts created for, and aimed at, servicing a particular societal need and are then sustained through continued contributions over time. This book spotlights the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and their philanthropic work in the aid of extreme poverty and global healthcare issues.
The book series further highlights other philanthropists or philanthropic foundations including Bono, Warren Buffett, The Carnegie Foundation, Angelina Jolie and many more.
