The name of Robert Duggan is not unknown in the American entrepreneurial circle. What he achieved with Pharmacyclics and Computer Motion is well known among the top entrepreneurs of the country. The best part of Duggan’s life is that he burst into the picture from nowhere. Some say he was accidentally lucky but as all of us agree, you sometimes need some accidents to become famous in life. And this is precisely what happened with Duggan.

But we are not here to discuss the happy accident that transformed the life of Duggan. We rather want to talk about how he is making a lot of difference to people around the globe.

Robert Duggan is one of those billionaires who don’t believe in holding onto their money for just their own good. Duggan has always been an entrepreneur at heart and he knows how to use money to make more money. But there is a human side to him that many are not aware of. Along with Trish Duggan, his wife, Robert Duggan has been engaged in many philanthropic activities and many such activities are worth mentioning. It’s not that that the Duggans go out of their way to advertise their good deeds, but the world should know what they have been up to all this while.

The Way to Happiness is a not for profit organization that aims to improve the lives of humans across communities on a global scale. The Way to Happiness also works to reduce crimes in various parts of the world. The Duggans are among the biggest contributors to this organization.

Many children today get addicted to drugs, some knowingly and some unknowingly. But it’s a huge problem and governments across the globe have been struggling to reduce the problem of child drug addiction. Thankfully, the governments haven’t given up yet. There have been various campaigns that have been run and some of them have been more successful than others. One that has been extremely successful in curbing this problem is The Truth About Drugs. The Duggans contribute to this organization too.

There are many other programs that Trish and Robert Duggan have supported to improve conditions for humanity in today’s world and for the benefit of future generations.

The Dugans also work toward spreading learning and literacy by contributing to Applied Scholastics, an organization that works toward spreading education.

For those that want to know about their rights, websites like YouthForHumanRights.org and HumanRights.com are useful resources. The Citizens Commission on Human Rights is an organization that helps people protect their rights. The Duggans are part of all these websites and organizations.

So, Robert Duggan is not just about making money, he has made truckloads of it. His personal wealth is worth more than a billion and a half. What he has done is to find out ways to spend his money to make a difference to society. This is where the greatness of the man lies.
