OMIDYAR NETWORK
Established in 2004 by eBay founder Pierre Omidyar and his wife, Pam, Omidyar Network is a philanthropic investment firm that works to create and foster opportunity for people around the world. In 2006 the couple gave $100 million to Tufts University to establish a fund that will attract private capital and scale up the microfinance sector. Omidyar and his wife, Pam, were named to BusinessWeek's 2008 list of the 50 Top American Givers, which recognizes the most generous U.S. philanthropists.
