People Giving Away Money


Here at the Millionaires Giving Money Blog we love to highlight people giving away money. In this special blog post I will be sharing 25 top people giving away money. This list will include the millionaires, billionaire, philanthropist and celebrity who have made the top 25 in terms of giving away their money to help people in need. I will be spreading these rich people who give away money over 5 posts and I will be including contact details and information on their charitable foundations so you can contact them if you need help with money. So without further ado here are the rich people that give away money.

People Giving Away Money

#1: Bill Gates

The first wealthy people giving away money that I want to highlight are Bill Gates. Bill Gates is one of the founders of the incredibly successful software company Microsoft. As of 2014 Bill Gates has an estimated net worth of $72 Billion and has donated more than $28 Billion to help people in need all over the world. Bill Gates started giving money to organisations which he supports; these organisations included University computer science departments, high schools, libraries and local charities in Seattle. 

More recently Bill Gates has contributed more than $10 Billion on vaccines in third world countries to overcome Malaria and Meningitis. For US citizens the most important project Bill Gates has taken part in is education and teacher training, most notably Post Secondary Education scholarship grants. Bill Gates along with Warren Buffet founded the Giving Pledge where Billionaires and Millionaires giving money pledge to give away half of their wealth to help people in need. You can either contact Bill Gates below or inquire with the charitable Foundation to see if you are eligible for any programs.

#2: Warren Buffett

Rich people giving away money are all around us and all we need to do is find them and ask them for money as long as we have a legitimate need. Warren Buffett is one of my favourite rich people who give away money. Warren Buffett has an estimates net worth of $46 Billion and has donated $17.25 Billion to help people all over the world. In 2006 Warren Buffett decided to pledge more than $30 Billion to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation over the next 20 years. The most notable action by Warren Buffett was to encourage 92 wealthy rich people to sign up to the Giving Pledge where billionaires and millionaires pledge to give away more than half of their entire wealth to help people in need all over the world. 

Warren Buffett became one of the wealthiest men in the world by investing in the stock market. Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway company has increased by an average of 20% over the last 30 years which is just incredible. Warren Buffett does not have his own charitable foundation as he has pledged to give his money to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. If you do want to contact Warren Buffett you can do this via his Berkshire Hathaway Company.

#3: George Soros

George Soros is another one of the great rich people giving away money. George Soros made his money speculating in the stock market and by becoming an expert at hedging currencies. Soros’s most notable act was when he betted against sterling and forced the United Kingdom out of the Exchange Rate Mechanism and became incredible rich in the process. George Soros loves to give money away; he is another one of my favourite billionaire and millionaires giving away money. 

George Soros has donated over $8.5 Billion and has an amazing net worth of $19 Billion. George Soros has given his money to a wide variety of causes included Gypsies in Eastern Europe, clinics in California as well as scientific research in Russia. One of Soros’s most notable donations was giving $100 million to overcome barriers faced by African-American men and boys. You can contact George Soros on the following contact details

Another underrated rich people who give away money is Gordon Moore. Moore has donated almost $5 Billion and has an estimated net worth of $5.8 Billion. Gordon Moore is the cofounder of Intel the chip maker and has pledged to give $5 Billion Gordon & Betty Moore Foundation back in 2000. The Moore’s are exceptional people and concentrate their giving on science, environmental conservation, as well as nursing education. Gordon Moore loves to help people in America and all over the world and is certainly worth contacted direct or via his charitable foundation.

#5: Carlos Slim Helu

Carlos Slim Helu is one of the world richest man with an estimated net worth of $69 Billion. The billionaire has donated $4 billion to help people who need money. Slim Helu believes that it’s more effective to donate money with an emphasis on creating jobs. Consequently Carlos has focused on giving his money to programs which are digital health and education. 

Carlos has also given his money to Clinton Initiative Project and has paid for over 50,000 cataract operations in Peru. The most notable donation was $150 million on American nutrition and disease prevention.

Asking People for Money

Before you seek help from people giving away money you should realize that help is only given to people who have a genuine need. When contacting these rich people for help avoid making brash statements such as I need money now or I really need money now as these statements turn people off completely. If you are in need of money now look to other places like friends & family, government, churches and charities which can offer immediate financial assistance.

People Giving Away Money

Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, George Soros, Gordon Moore and Carlos Slim Helu are five of the top rich people giving away money. These are the billionaires and millionaires giving away money. If you are thinking about contacting people who give away money for free then you must have a genuine need and show that you’ve exhausted all other avenues to get help. The best way to contact these rich people for help is through their charitable foundation. Find a program that is run by these organizations which can help you improve your quality of life and standard of living. If the organisation does not give donations direct ask about the places it donates the money and then contact these secondary organisations direct asking them for financial assistance.

  2. My wife and I are looking for a $10,000.00 loan on a 5 year note, not a hand out. Would be willing to pay 10.9 % interest. Looking to pay bills and relocate to be with family that I haven't seen since 1977 when we were seperated as children. And find employment as jobs here are very slim.
