Many of the world's most successful and well-known hedge fund managers donate millions of dollars to charities every year, and some of them do so through their own charities. Highfields Capital co-founder Jonathon Jacobson is one of those who established a foundation to dole out their millions, and we can get an idea about which other fund managers he trusts the most by looking at thes ones his foundation invests with.
