Which is why I said "Publicly", and pointed out that there's a possibility he might have done tons of private donating. Did you even read past the first couple words?

I think it's kind of poor taste to be bringing that up now.
Why? Did anyone here know Jobs personally? Should they be offended if I point out the glaring lack of (public) philanthropy from a mega-wealthy individual? When would be an appropriate time to bring it up?

Also, not in response to Tuna but still related;

Jobs had terminated all of Apple's long-standing corporate philanthropy programs within weeks after returning to Apple in 1997, citing the need to cut costs until profitability rebounded. But the programs have never been restored.
