The Giving Pledge is an effort organized by software mogul Bill Gates and investor Warren Buffett to persuade the world's rich to boost their giving.
“捐赠誓言”是软件大亨比尔•盖茨(Bill Gates)和投资家沃伦•巴菲特(Warren Buffett)为劝说世界富人更慷慨地捐赠而发起的一场活动。
'I view this as a call to others who might in their thirties or forties use some of their creativity to get involved in philanthropy earlier in life,' Mr. Milken, 64, said of the pledge.
64岁的米尔肯说,在我看来,誓言书是呼吁其他年龄可能在三四十岁的人动用一定的创造力,在人生的较早阶段参与慈善事业。
Those pledging are part of a broader shift in philanthropy, in which successful business people -- often entrepreneurs -- are giving more of their money to charity far earlier than their predecessors. It was a trend that was helped along by Mr. Gates, who started his foundation while still leading Microsoft Corp.
这些人的承诺符合整个慈善事业的一种变化,即成功商界人士(常常都是创业家)比其前辈捐赠数额更大,时间也远远提前。盖茨在他掌管微软公司(Microsoft Corp.)的时候就已经成立自己的基金会,一定程度上促成了这样一种趋势。
Mr. Case, 52, and his wife Jean Case, 50, said they signed the pledge because they hoped it would help philanthropists learn from each other. 'It is less about what size of a check that you write and more about the outcome,' Mr. Case said.
