Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen, 61, who is worth about $17billion,
announced today October 23rd that he will donate $100 million to the
fight against Ebola, which has killed thousands of people all around the
world. This donation makes him the largest individual donor in the
Ebola crisis so far."Everybody
feels called sometimes to really pursue a certain thing that resonates
with them, and this has resonated with me. We’re up
against an extremely tough opponent here. The exponential
nature of the growth of this disease is really a challenge - we’ve
already seen in the U.S. where one case quickly became two.” Allen told NY Times
