MacKenzie Scott Gives $50 Million Entirely to Native Students — $10M for Scholarships Now, $40M Endowed Forever
MacKenzie Scott has directed a $50 million gift entirely to Native students. Ten million dollars will fund scholarships over the next five years, while $40 million goes into a permanent endowment, so the fund's investment income — not the principal — pays for Native students' tuition for generations. The structure converts a one-time donation into an ongoing institution.
