The Buffett Billionaire Bargain: A Philanthropic Pivot Warren Buffett's decision to accelerate his charitable donations has sent shockwaves through the philanthropic world.
He plans to give away nearly all of his Berkshire Hathaway shares by 2034, a staggering $17 billion per year for eight years.
Four family foundations – the Susan Thompson Buffett Foundation, the Sherwood Foundation, the Howard G. Buffett Foundation, and the NoVo Foundation – will receive significant injections of capital from these donations.
