Steve Jobs 's $ 5,000 donation in the late 1970s was the key to the successful launch of the charity, the result of 35 years of which has restored the eyesight of about 3.5 million people in Bangladesh, Cambodia, Nepal, Tibet, India and other countries.
In 1980, Jobs also donated an Apple II computer with a 5-megabyte disk to the SEVA Foundation, which he then said the charity could never fill completely.
After 33 years spent in Kathmandu and Nepal, the computer Apple II was returned to the widow of Steve - Laurene Powell Jobs (Laurene Powell Jobs) SEVA Foundation co-founder Dr. Diamond - an old friend of Jobs. The doctor said that without the initial help from Steve ($ 5,000), the fund might never have taken place.
Jobs was often criticized for his lack of visible charity. True, no one knows how much he gave in donations from his personal savings. Brilliant believes that Steve was completely focused on Apple, giving the company all his time and energy.
