Jeff Bezos gives Smithsonian a record $200 million

 

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos is donating $200 million to the Smithsonian Institution, the largest single donation since its founding gift from James Smithson in 1846, the museum announced Wednesday.

The Smithsonian said in a statement that $70 million of Bezos’ gift will be used to support the renovation of the National Air and Space Museum, and $130 million will be used to launch a Bezos Learning Center at the museum, in a new facility that will be built on the east side of the museum’s plaza.
