The Morning News: News : Clinton speaks to nation's 60 most generous philanthropists

The Morning News: News : Clinton speaks to nation's 60 most generous philanthropists: "LITTLE ROCK -- A carnival worker at the New York State Fair, whom he encountered while walking down the midway with his nephew, provided a prime example of private citizens' ability to affect the world through charity, former President Bill Clinton said Monday.

'This lady comes from out behind one of these booths, she's got an old khaki shirt on, a logo, she stuffs $50 bucks in my hand. She said, 'This is for the Bush Clinton Katrina fund,'' Clinton told philanthropists as keynote speaker at the Slate 60 Conference on Innovative Philanthropy."
