Mark Zuckerberg on Philanthropy: Move Slow, Build Things

After making their fortunes from new software or social networks, some Silicon Valley entrepreneurs have vowed to apply their skills to "hacking" philanthropy and "disrupting" old models for funding charity.

Not so for Facebook CEO and co-founder Mark Zuckerberg, who isn't afraid to take a more conventional approach to giving.

Local officials will gather in San Francisco this weekend to dedicate a new public hospital building, furnished and equipped in part by a $75 million gift from Zuckerberg and his wife Priscilla Chan, a pediatrician who did medical training at the old San Francisco General Hospital—now to be known as the Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital.
