The United Way of Tucson and Southern Arizona received a $10 million donation Tuesday, the largest in the organizationâs nearly 100-year history.

The donation came from MacKenzie Scott, an author, philanthropist and ex-wife of Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon. Scott announced the donation Tuesday as part of her effort to give away her vast fortune during her lifetime.
