MacKenzie Scott, the ex-wife of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, was responsible for one-third of all U.S. “megagift” donations to charities last year, according to a new report.
Last year, the total amount of megagifts to charity — defined as donations that surpass 0.1 percent of total giving in a year — added up to $19.2 billion, according to a new Fortune report, which cites data from Giving USA and the Indiana University Lilly Family School of Philanthropy.
