Bezos Family Foundation’s $100M Gift to NYC’s Robin Hood Honors Jackie Bezos

The funding comes as New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani pursues broader universal child care plans.

The Bezos Family Foundation, founded by Jeff Bezos’ parents, Miguel and Jackie, is committing $100 million to New York City’s Robin Hood Foundation, the city’s largest poverty-fighting nonprofit. The funds are part of a Robin Hood campaign to raise $1 billion to support initiatives including emergency food, housing, education, job training, benefits access and legal services. The Bezos family’s donation serves as the campaign’s anchor gift and will establish the Jackie Bezos Endowment for Early Childhood at Robin Hood—named in recognition of the Amazon founder’s mother, Jackie, who died last year at age 78.
