100 million dollars

The founder of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg, announced that he was going to donate one hundred million dollars to the Newark public school system. That's a pretty generous act by any standard. This was surprising enough. But what really surprised me was that there are people who are in the very least trying to make it more difficult for the Mr. Zuckerberg to give this money away. While listening to the radio today, there were people questioning the legality of said gift. That, is what really surprised me about the whole thing. I hope the donation goes through all the red-tape and is actually able to help the school system.
