MacKenzie Scott has given large, unrestricted gifts to more than 2,450 nonprofits over the past six years. The 54-year-old donated over $2 billion in 2024 alone, bringing her total gifts to $19.2 billion since 2019.
Now, a new three-year analysis from the Center for Effective Philanthropy (CEP) finds that Scott’s no-strings-attached gifts, with a median size of $5 million, have had a “transformative effect” on nonprofits by helping them expand their impact and become more financially stable.
CEP released the research earlier this month after surveying over 800 organizations that received donations from Scott from June to July 2024.
