MacKenzie Scott Donates Millions to Habitat for Humanity

After her split from Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos, MacKenzie Scott said she would donate "until the safe is empty."

She continued that promise this week, with a $436 million donation to Habitat for Humanity. Of that, $7.5 million is coming to Hillsborough County. The organization describes the gift as "transformational."

The organization has said it will work out a plan for utilizing the funds in the coming weeks.

A recent report from the New York Times estimates Scott's portion of the divorce settlement from Bezos netted her about $36 billion from 4% of Amazon's shares.
