Mark Zuckerberg, Priscilla Chan donate $25M to CDC to fight Ebola

Facebook Co-Founder Mark Zuckerberg and his wife Priscilla Chan are known for their generosity, regularly donating money to charities.

Zuckerberg announced today another major donation, as he and Chan gave $25 million to the Centers for Disease Control to help fight the Ebola virus outbreak.

Zuckerberg posted on his timeline Tuesday morning about the donation:

The Ebola epidemic is at a critical turning point. It has infected 8,400 people so far, but it is spreading very quickly and projections suggest it could infect 1 million people or more over the next several months if not addressed.
