Like most brilliant ideas, Founders Pledge is extraordinarily simple. I spend most of my week working with entrepreneurs and trying to make our investors even more money than they already have. By committing to Founders Pledge, I can make sure that any success I'm involved with will benefit my chosen charities. No brainer.
