RE: Inspirational speech! Mark Zuckerberg's graduation speech for Harvard's Class of 2017

in #life7 years ago

I for one don't believed on Mark Zuckerberg so called "charity". I have always been a believer that these so called "charity foundation" are a way the rich can channel their money else where. Same thing goes to the Bill Gates / Rockefellas / Foundation ect.

Sort:  

Thanks for leaving a comment. I believe that while there are some people who use donations for purely self-interested purposes, there are also those who donate chiefly for charitable reasons.

For example, Andrew Carnegie paid for the construction of Carnegie Hall, John D. Rockefeller donated $80 million to found the University of Chicago, and Mark Zuckerberg donated $100 million to the Newark public school system. Even if they reap some benefits from their donations, the rest of society also benefits greatly.

It's kinda like the Clinton Foundation. Money were funnel to their own bank account instead of helping those who really need it. I'm not doubting Mark contribution, but I do have my doubts.

Understood! You have your doubts for good reason.
