Former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg has been recognized as the top donor in America for the second consecutive year, having contributed $3.7 billion to a wide array of charitable causes including education, arts, and public health in 2024. Bloomberg's generosity is highlighted by a significant $1 billion grant to Johns Hopkins University to support free medical education. The Philanthropy 50 list reveals that a total of $16.2 billion was donated by the 50 top philanthropists, with only a fraction of the nation's wealthiest individuals appearing on the list. Bloomberg's commitment to philanthropy reflects his desire to create opportunities for others while supporting meaningful causes directly.
