Carnegie's wealth used freely to aid many institutions
Andrew Carnegie began a vast philanthropic campaign after 1901, giving away hundreds of millions to libraries, schools, and social programs worldwide. He funded Carnegie libraries, a peace initiative, and educational institutions, while recounting his frugal origins and early engineering success that led to industrial wealth and the United States Steel formation.
