Good for them...............................

"Most of us will never see $1 billion in our lives. But that’s just about how much Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan, donated in 2013, topping the list of the Chronicle of Philanthropy’s latest compilation of America’s most generous donors."

"Zuckerberg and Chan gave their gift, in the form of 18 million Facebook shares valued at about $990 million at the time of donation, to the Silicon Valley Community Foundation. Over the past two years, the couple has donated about $1.5 billion in shares to the organization."

As excerpted from here.
