MacKenzie Scott Donates Billions to Philanthropy, Including $62 Million for Ocean Conservation
MacKenzie Scott, ex-wife of Jeff Bezos, donated $62 million to marine conservation group Blue Ventures in 2025 to support coastal communities and sustainable fisheries. Over five years, she has given an estimated $26.2 billion, including about $7 billion in 2025, across various causes such as housing and disaster recovery. Despite her large donations, Scott maintains a private approach to philanthropy, which led to her exclusion from the Chronicle of Philanthropy's top 50 donors list this year.
