NEW YORK, July 3 (UPI) -- Billionaire investor Warren Buffett gave $1.51 billion to four charities this week, a filing at the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission shows.
Buffett has said he will give away most of his fortune to worthy causes. This year, he continued his practice of giving the bulk of his donations to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, which received $1.25 billion worth of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. stock, the Omaha World-Herald reported Friday.
