Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced that he and his wife Priscilla Chan have donated $5 million to the scholarship fund – TheDream.US – to help undocumented immigrants in the US to attend college. The donation will allow over 400 immigrants in the San Francisco Bay area, a chance to receive a legal education. It is to be noted that the fund has raised more than $80 million so far.

In a Facebook post, Mr. Zuckerberg said the couple regard their donation as an “investment” to provide scholarships to more than 400 students without legal status in the San Francisco Bay Area over the next five years.
