The boss-founder of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan wife Tuesday announced the birth of their first child, a daughter, and the gift during their lives 99% of their shares to a new foundation, the “Chan Zuckerberg Initiative”. “We will pass on 99% of our Facebook shares, currently valued at $ 45 billion, during our lives to advance this mission,” write the parents in a “Letter to our daughter Max” posted on Facebook.
“So you marks the start of the next generation of Chan Zuckerberg family, we are also launching Chan Zuckerberg initiative to gather people around the world to advance and promote equality for children of the next generation, “they continue. “I will remain CEO of Facebook still many, many years, but these issues are too important to let them wait until you or we are older to begin this work,” said Zuckerberg.
Three miscarriages

We do not know exactly what day the little girl was born. “We will focus initially on personalized learning, eradicate diseases, connect people to each other and build strong companies,” the couple. “We know this is a small contribution compared to all the resources and talents of those already working on these issues. But we want to do what we can, working alongside many other”, they continue .
Mark Zuckerberg announced before birth its intention to take two months paternity leave. By revealing pregnancy in late July, he was also entrusted on Facebook that the couple had been trying for several years to have a child but Priscilla had three miscarriages.
