Buffett severs donations to Gates Foundation following Epstein revelations

5 hours ago

Warren Buffett has ceased donations to the Gates Foundation due to Bill Gates's connections with Jeffrey Epstein.
Buffett is redirecting approximately $6 billion in Berkshire Hathaway stock to four family foundations overseen by his children.
The Gates Foundation had received over $47 billion from Buffett since 2006, but he did not mention it in his latest announcement.
Buffett plans to donate all remaining shares to the four foundations by December 31, 2034, regardless of mortality.
Bill Gates's reputation has been damaged by released files showing interactions with Epstein, though he denies any criminal involvement.
The donations will support causes including reproductive health, global hunger, human trafficking, early childhood education, and marginalized women and girls.
