He launched Dalio Philanthropies, his charitable foundation, in 2003 and signed the Giving Pledge, a campaign led by Bill Gates and Warren Buffett to get the world’s richest people to give a majority of their wealth to philanthropy, in 2011.
“We found taking our excesses and providing it to others who have an extreme shortage has been both a good investment and a great satisfaction,”The Dalios have given more than $5 billion to Dalio Philanthropies since 2003, according to their website. The foundation says it has given more than $900 million of the funds away so far, to causes including inner-city education, financial literacy, environmental protection as well as technology access and education.
The concept of health justice is not a new one—it has been a steadily growing trend in recent decades and has gained more attention recently due to the coronavirus pandemic. It revolves around the idea that everybody deserves equal rights and opportunities when it comes to healthcare. Health justice centers advocate for these causes locally and nationally while also sponsoring community-based health initiatives.
“The COVID-19 pandemic exposed enduring health inequities in a new and alarming way, and the importance of health justice has never been clearer,” said Dr. Julia Iyasere, head of the Dalio Center for Health Justice at NewYork-Presbyterian.
