20% of gross sales* from this book will be donated to the GLIDE charity, which Mr. Buffett has generously supported with his own donations. George Costanza’s ‘Human Fund’ was the runner-up.
*Gross Sales means the total amount customers pay for the book, not including sales tax collected or shipping (if applicable). No other fees, charges, deductions, expenses or overhead apply - GLIDE gets 20% of the whole enchilada, with no “fuzzy math.” Gross sales is a simple, transparent and easily audited figure, so everyone is certain the commitment is fulfilled.
Sales and donation figures will be posted and updated publicly at www.GemsFromBuffett.com.
GLIDE's mission is to create a radically inclusive, just and loving community mobilized to alleviate suffering and break the cycles of poverty and marginalization. GLIDE's methodology is radically simple: love, acceptance, and compassion, which they apply through programs in Wellness, Growth, Spirit, and Leadership.
