From Warren Buffett to newcomer Jeff Bezos, the nation's most generous billionaires have given away a collective $169 billion in their lifetimes–and are still richer than ever.
is only crediting her with her known, public donations.
Two fresh faces have joined the top philanthropist ranks since last year: Facebook cofounder Dustin Moskovitz and his wife Cari Tuna, and Scott’s ex-husband, Jeff Bezos, who has taken to philanthropy—announcing $1 billion in gifts in 2021—since stepping down as Amazon’s CEO in July. Other big donations: a $500 million pledge to a small liberal arts college by George Soros, a $3.4 billion initiative over ten years from Mark Zuckerberg to measure and analyze biological processes in the human body and a $5 billion, ten-year pledge toward biodiversity conservation by a handful of groups, include three top givers: Bezos, Michael Bloomberg and Gordon and Betty Moore.
Of course, with markets riding high, it’s easier to dole out billions. These 25 philanthropists are a collective $150 billion richer than they were a year ago, up 18% each on average. In all, they’re worth an estimated $1.1 trillion. Seventeen of them have signed, promising to donate at least half their fortune to charity over their lifetimes or upon their deaths. But only two—Chuck Feeney and Soros—have hit the mark so far.
Our estimates factor in the total lifetime giving of American billionaires, measured in dollars given to charitable recipients—in other words, we are not including money parked in a foundation that has yet to do any good.
