    Ripple effects.

    MacKenzie Scott:

    “Whose generosity did I think of every time I made every one of the thousands of gifts I’ve been able to give?

    “It was the local dentist who offered me free dental work when he saw me securing a broken tooth with denture glue in college. It was the college roommate who found me crying, and acted on her urge to loan me a thousand dollars to keep me from having to drop out in my sophomore year.”
