Every year, people give money to charities, and we are celebrating the most generous celebrities of 2023. The billionaire donors who share their vast wealth with charities are topping the list. Warren Buffet plans on giving his entire bundle to charities on his death. We want to celebrate those who have less but are still giving away great gobs. You’ll recognize many celebrity donors using their money and influence to help millions. They aren’t always celebrated as much as the billionaire donors, but their contributions make a huge difference in many areas.
