I believe that these people may be following the political persuasion of the likes of Warren Buffet, Bill & Melinda Gates, and other billionaires who have been championing philanthropy in the past decade.

All of the diseased dragons laying on mountains gold, that Tolkien has written about (and documented here) , are being persuaded among themselves to have a ‘change of heart’.

Even if this is a political stunt or disingenuous, then at least their fortunes are helping a great deal of people.
