According to the most recent public tax filing made by the Dalio Foundation, Dalio contributed $400 million to his foundation in 2013, pushing its total assets to $842 million. The foundation ended 2012 with $590 million in assets.

With an estimated net worth of $15.4 billion, Dalio is the second-wealthiest hedge fund manager. Paul Tudor Jones started the Robin Hood Foundation to fight New York City poverty, which has raised nearly $2 billion over its history, and the Sohn Investment Conference has for years been backed by hedge fund managers to raise money for pediatric cancer research. Soros, James Simons, John Arnold, and Stanley Druckenmiller, are hedge fund managers who have set up foundations that are in the range of a billion dollars or much more, according to Foundation Center.

Dalio’s Foundation is the next largest foundation started by a billionaire hedge fund manager, according to Foundation Center’s data. Dalio’s foundation is not really mission focused, but Dalio has expressed interest in areas like microfinance, inner-city education, promoting meditation to groups under stress and nature conservation and research.

Dalio is particularly interested in backing research and preservation efforts directed at the world’s oceans by supporting scientific exploration and the production of media focused on oceans.

BAINBRIDGE ISLAND With little elbow room and plenty of sawdust, six students piled into the woodwork section of Bainbridge Artisan Resource Network to finish their cutting board projects Thursday evening.

BARN’s classes have taken off since they started in June, and its current building in the Rolling Bay neighborhood is “bursting at the seams,” said Sallie Maron, vice president of BARN’s board.

While interest in up, space is limited and woodwork classes will be capped to four students to give everyone more room.

The 2,000-square-foot facility was meant to be a temporary one for BARN, a nonprofit open for artist of all skill levels to learn from each other. It is home to metalworking, fiber arts, writing, printmaking and glass work, among others.

While the island has several existing and proposed developments for single artist studio spaces, BARN’s focus is bringing artists together to learn in community workshops, said Jeanne Huber, BARN board chairwoman.

Students of all ages can learn new trades during BARN classes and use tools during open workshop time.

BARN recently unveiled plans for a two-story, 25,000-square-foot building on about 2 acres off New Brooklyn Road.
