A Florida billionaire and philanthropist donated his yacht to bring 30 tons of supplies to the Bahamas last week and rescue several dogs after Hurricane Dorian devastated the islands, according to reports.

"Laurel and our incredible crew led by Captain Roy Hodges all did an amazing job bringing essential supplies to the Bahamas and rescuing about 50 dogs who were left homeless when the shelter in which they lived was destroyed. I am very proud of all their hard work. We will all keep the people of the Bahamas in our prayers," he said.

Golisano was a former owner of the Buffalo Sabres hockey team but he sold the team in 2011 for a price of $189 million, and he even ran three times for Governor of New York, although his campaigns were all unsuccessful.
