Jackie Chan To Donate Half His Fortune

Posted by on June 28, 2006 10:04 PM |

jackie chan photo Jackie Chan will donate half of his fortune to charity when he dies, the actor has revealed.

But the kung fu star refuses to say exactly how much he is currently worth.

Jackie announced his plans in the wake of Warren Buffett's donation of $37 billion to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.

"I admire the efforts by Buffett and Gates to help those in need a lot. Like Buffett and Gates, I want to help people, but I don't have as much money as they do," Jackie says.

The 52-year-old says his money will go to his own charity, the Jackie Chan Charitable Foundation, which was set up in 1988 to help people in Hong Kong, but has since branched out to provide medical relief in disaster zones, and help fund performing arts.
