Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and his fiancée Lauren Sánchez are pledging $100 million dollars to recovery efforts in Maui, Sánchez announced Friday on her Instagram account

“Jeff and I are heartbroken by what’s happening in Maui,” Sánchez wrote. “We are thinking of all the families that have lost so much and a community that has been left devastated.” Sanchez added that, “Jeff and I are creating a Maui Fund and are dedicating $100 million to help Maui get back on its feet now and over the coming years as the continuing needs reveal themselves.” Wildfires have ravaged the Hawaiian island this week, with strong winds from Hurricane Dora fanning the flames.

Bezos and Sánchez have been together since 2019 and were engaged earlier this year, a source told CNN in May. Bezos is the executive chair of the Amazon\n \n board of directors and owns the Washington Post. He has an estimated net worth of $163 billion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaire Index. That sum places him as the world’s third richest person, according to Bloomberg.
