Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and his fiancee Lauren Sanchez are pledging $100 million dollars to recovery efforts in Maui following the devastating wildfires that have ravaged the Hawaiian island. Sanchez announced the news on her Instagram account, expressing their heartbreak for the families and community affected by the disaster. The couple is creating the Maui Fund to provide ongoing support for the island as it recovers from the damage caused by the fires. Bezos, the executive chair of the Amazon board of directors, has a net worth of $163 billion, making him the world's third richest person. This pledge aligns with his commitment to donate the majority of his wealth during his lifetime, with a focus on fighting climate change and supporting unity among humanity. However, Bezos and Sanchez have not signed the Giving Pledge, a commitment made by other wealthy individuals to give away the majority of their wealth. The connection between human-caused climate change and the increase in wildfires is well-established, with rising temperatures and changes to the local environment contributing to the severity of these disasters. As the recovery efforts begin in Maui, the question remains: can Bezos and Sanchez's $100 million pledge make a meaningful difference in bringing the island back to its feet?
