MacKenzie Scott has donated 14 billion donors to more than 250 nonprofits in just the previous 5 years ago. MacKenzie Scott donated an estimated 6 billion dollars during the year of 2020, with many believing it to be the biggest amount of money donated in a 12-month span by any human in recorded history.
On today's episode we break down Scott's epic donation run with three Nonprofit Insider insights and ask the question, "Is it too early to put MacKenzie Scott on the Mount Rushmore of philanthropic giving?"
And...Florida, Florida, Florida. For today’s news segment we highlight a hilarious story of a Florida woman who embezzled tens of thousands of dollars, not once but twice from various nonprofits. This is a story you are going to want to hear because it's more common than you may think.
