After the King of Amazon, Jeff Bezos, thanked his employees as well as anyone that has ever purchased anything from Amazon, for making it possible to fulfill his childhood dream after his rocket company’s first flight with people on board flew into space for several weightless minutes, then landed safely back on earth, he then gifted $100 million to activist/CNN Commentator Van Jones and celebrity chef Jose Andres.

The money is tied to Jeff Bezos’ new philanthropic initiative called the Courage and Civility Award. The award aims to honor leaders and influencers who have “demonstrated courage” in a divisive world.
According to Jeff Bezos:
“They can give it all to their own charity,” “Or they can share the wealth. It is up to them.”
