Billionaires also pledged to fund rebuilding Notre Dame in France and no one paid anything. Almost no one actually paid and it seems the press doesn't care to see if anything has been paid since 2019: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/notre-dame-fire-update-big-donors-delay-fulfilling-pledges-to-rebuild-notre-dame/

Pledges are PR, nothing more.

Question is, is this an Amber Herd pledge, or will they actually do it?

"Jeff Bezos gives $1000 to keep orphan crushing machine shut off for an hour. Applause please"

I have good news.

I am also pledging $100 million for Maui wildfire relief.
