According to Bloomberg, Amazon’s founder Jeff Bezos is donating $123 million to organizations that help homeless families find permanent housing.

The founder of Amazon revealed on Instagram that his Bezos Day 1 Families Fund project, which he started in 2018, had just granted 40 awards. The contributions are a part of an overall $2 billion pledge to fight homelessness.

The Courage & Civility Award, which comes with a $100 million gift to Dolly Parton to employ for her charitable endeavors, was given to Parton by Bezos and his girlfriend, Lauren Sánchez, last week. This achievement also garnered news.

After Bezos’ appearance with CNN, his ex-wife, Mackenzie Scott, disclosed that she was giving an additional $2 billion to many charities.
