The Giving Pledge is an initiative founded by Warren Buffett, Bill Gates, and Melinda French Gates in 2010.
“I am committed to positively impacting the world. The mission of creating a more equitable society aligns with my values and aspirations’’, said Kamath.
Kamath is the only Indian among this year’s signatories. Other wealthy Indians who have signed up for this initiative in the past include Infosys cofounder Nandan Nilekani, Wipro chairperson Azim Premji, and Vedanta chairman Anil Agarwal.
Nearly 241 philanthropists from 29 countries have signed up for this year, including LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman, Tesla CEO Elon Musk, and Canva co-founders Melanie Perkins and Cliff Obrecht.
