I love to write about people giving away money on
the Millionaires Giving Money Blog. In Part 1 I had great fun writing about
great billionaires such as Warren Buffett, Bill Gates and George Soros and the
way they gave their money to help people in need. In Part 2 and 3 I highlighted
billionaires such as Ted Turner, Li Ka-Shing and Herbert Sandler and how they
help people all over the world. In Part 4 of the series on people giving
away money I will look at the final 5 billionaires, celebrities,
philanthropists and millionaires giving money away.
I will also search high and
low for the contact details should you wish to contact them for help. So
without further ado here are the people who give away money.
People giving Away Money (16 – 20)
#16: Jon Huntsman Sr.
Number 16 in the list of people that give money away
is Jon Huntsman who has an estimated net worth of $925 million made in the chemicals
industry. Amazingly to date he has given away $1.25 billion in donations which
means he has now given more than he has left. Some of the most notable and
heart warming donations came from Huntsman after he was diagnosed with prostate
cancer in 1992.
Before Jon went for his treatment he famously made three
stops. The first stop was at a homeless shelter where he donated just over a
million dollars. The next stop was at a soup kitchen where he donated another million.
At Huntsman’s final stop he donated just over half a million at a cancer
clinic. Jon is an amazing example of how generous one person can be. Jon has
also stated that he plans to give away most of his wealthy before he passes to his
cancer foundation.

Contacting People Who Give Money Away
I always say when contacting the people giving away
money you need to have a genuine legitimate need. Most billionaires,
celebrities, philanthropists and millionaires giving money prefer to be
contacted through their charitable foundation.
If you have decided to contact these organizations for
help you need to act in a professional and polite manner and always avoid brash
statements such as I need money and help need money now. These statements will
almost certainly be enough to irritate the organization.
Instead inquire about any programs that the organization
might have to help you. You should also inquire about where the organization donates
its money so you could go to the secondary charitable foundations for help.
