MacKenzie Scott gives away $4.2bn in four months
MacKenzie Scott, the ex-wife of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, has donated more than $4bn (£3bn) to food banks and emergency relief funds in four months.
In a blog post, Ms Scott said she wanted to help Americans who were struggling because of the pandemic.
Ms Scott is the world's 18th-richest person, having seen her wealth climb $23.6bn this year to $60.7bn.
Much of her fortune comes from Mr Bezos who is the world's richest man and Amazon's chief executive.
