MacKenzie Scott, the reclusive billionaire who has in three years donated upwards of $14 billion to more than 1,600 nonprofits, may start accepting applications from would-be recipients. Eventually.
On Wednesday, Scott's team published a long-promised website with details about her philanthropy, including a database of the donations she has made since 2020. More surprisingly, the operation (which the website calls "Yield Giving") also announced that Scott will allow nonprofits to formally apply for her gifts in the future, through what it calls an "open-call process." That process will include an online application, the website says, but it doesn't yet provide specifics on timing, simply saying it is "upcoming."
