WASHINGTON (BLOOMBERG) - MacKenzie Scott is giving away her fortune at an unprecedented pace, donating more than US$4 billion (S$5.3 billion) in four months after announcing US$1.7 billion in gifts in July.
The world’s 18th-richest person outlined the latest contributions in a blog post on Tuesday (Dec 15), saying she asked her team to figure out how to give away her fortune faster.
Scott’s wealth has climbed US$23.6 billion this year to US$60.7 billion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, as Amazon.com, the primary source of her fortune, has surged.
“This pandemic has been a wrecking ball in the lives of Americans already struggling,” she wrote in the post on Medium.
