Yes, the donation for the Male Circumcision Consortium (MCC) was 'only' $18.5 million not billion.

The press release for this is here: http://fhi.org/en/AboutFHI/Media/Releases/081124_male_circum...

BTW, the press release says that the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation donated the money. So this does not necessarily mean that the money came from Bill Gates. Plus, you would count it twice if you count his donations to the foundation and the donations from the foundation ...
