Help wanted from the richest | The Japan Times Online
Help wanted from the richest | The Japan Times Online: "The U.S. has a tradition of public philanthropy. Ever since the 19th century, there have been outstanding businessmen, who having made their millions (and now billions) have devoted their wealth to good causes. Philanthropists like Andrew Carnegie and the Rockefellers have been succeeded by successful businessmen, such as Bill Gates, who have established charitable foundations that make significant contributions to good causes. There have also been a number in Britain, such as Lord Nuffield and the Sainsbury family, who have by their donations used their wealth for the public good."
