Jeff Bezos wants your help donating his money.
The Amazon CEO tweeted a call for assistance Thursday asking his followers for philanthropy ideas that can help “right now.”
“I’m thinking about a philanthropy strategy that is the opposite of how I mostly spend my time — working on the long term,” Bezos wrote in a note accompany his tweet. “For philanthropy, I find I’m drawn to the other end of the spectrum: the right now.
“I like long-term—it’s a huge lever: Blue Origin, Amazon, Washington Post—all of these are contributing to society and civilization in their own ways,” Bezos added. “But I’m thinking I want much of my philanthropic activity to be helping in the here and now—short term—at the intersection of urgent need and lasting impact.”
