Laurene Powell Jobs, best known as the widow of deceased Apple founder and CEO Steve Jobs, has a net worth of $9 billion. But her net worth isn't just on account of her famously successful husband – Powell is currently the co-founder and President of the Board of Directors at the national education nonprofit organization College Track, which works to send underprivileged youth to college. In addition to her current position, Powell previously co-founded Terravera, a food company that specialized in organic and healthy food products. And before going to business school, she also spent three years at the business firm Goldman Sachs. But it's her philanthropy that she's best known for, in stark contrast to her deceased husband, who was somewhat notoriously uninterested in charitable causes throughout his life. Right now, she is a member of the boards of directors of charitable and community organizations such as Teach for America, the Global Fund for Women, TV stationKQED (PBS), EdVoice the New America Foundation and the Stanford Schools Corporation. Clearly, Laurene Powell Jobs is someone who isn't content to just sit on her wealth, instead using her blessings to give back to not just her community but various communities all over the planet.
