A Reddit user was left stunned after discovering her secret Santa named “Bill” was actually Bill Gates, billionaire philanthropist and founder of Microsoft.
Rachel, 24, who goes by NY1227 on Reddit, writes in a post that her jaw hit the floor when she opened her gift and saw a photo of Gates accompanied by a travel book, stuffed animal and note that money had been donated to a charity on her behalf.
Gates, who secretly joined Reddit’s gift exchange this year, sent Rachel a stuffed cow, symbolizing a donation he had made to Heifer International, a charity aiming to end hunger and poverty around the world. A gift catalog on the site shows cow donations start at about $500; you can also donate goats, llamas, pigs and honeybees.
| Quote: | To Rachel,
My secret Santa present to you is a cow.
Don’t worry — you will not have to build a barn. This cow will be given to a family in need, in your name,
through Heifer International. It will provide them with income and dairy products, and it will help them help themselves.
Happy Holidays,
Bill Gates |

But llamas are evil.
Maybe chickens. Since Kows are commies.
