Venture Capitalists Ron Conway And Sean Parker Battle For Charity

December 12th, 2009 | Tags:

Sean Parker (Founders Fund, Facebook, Plaxo, Napster) and angel investor Ron Conway are doing a little smack talking over who’ll raise the most money for charity. Conway is raising for the UCSF Foundation , and Parker is fighting Malaria through Malaria No More . So far Parker is in the lead, with more than $15,000 raised (he’s tying it to his 30th birthday party tonight). Conway, who started later, has nearly $7,500 . They’re both using Causes on Facebook , one of Parker’s companies, to raise the money. We’re not picking sides, and both are very worthy causes. Donate early and often. And consider asking friends to donate instead of giving holiday gifts. Crunch Network : MobileCrunch Mobile Gadgets and Applications, Delivered Daily.
