Hundred million dollars for Skoll’s new Urgent Threats Fund
EBay founder Jeff Skoll has donated $100 million to start a new foundation, the Skoll Urgent Threats Fund, to address some of the world’s most pressing concerns like climate change, water shortages, pandemics and the Middle East conflict. The Foundation will be led by Larry Brilliant, who until February headed Google’s philanthropic enterprise, google.org.
