NEW YORK: Facebook Inc founder and chief executive Mark Zuckerberg and his wife topped a list of the biggest US philanthropic donors in 2013, giving away nearly US$1bil (RM3.33bil), the Chronicle of Philanthropy said on Monday. 

The top 50 US donors gave US$7.7bil (RM25.68bil) last year, up 4% from the previous year, helped by a surge on Wall Street, according to the Chronicle, which compiles the list.
