SKOLL FOUNDATION

The Skoll Foundation was created by Jeff Skoll, founding president of eBay, in 1999. Skoll’s charities include the private Skoll Foundation, which fosters social entrepreneurship, and the public Skoll Fund. Both provide funding under the Skoll Foundation moniker. Skoll was named to BusinessWeek's 2008 list of the 50 Top American Givers, which recognizes the most generous U.S. philanthropists.
