The Gates Foundation is the world's largest charitable organization. By most accounts, it is also among the most innovative and effective. It multiplies its substantial leverage by working together with researchers, companies, and governments. Until recently, the Gates Foundation was funded almost entirely by the personal fortunes of it's founders, Bill & Melinda Gates, a remarkable work of philanthropy Recently, however, they received a gift from billionaire Warren Buffet that effectively doubles the size of their endowment.
