Blue Origin donates New Shepard auction proceeds to space nonprofit groups

With less than a week before its first crewed suborbital spaceflight, Blue Origin is distributing some of the proceeds from an auction for one of the seats on that flight to a group of space-related nonprofit organizations.

Blue Origin announced July 14 it is awarding $1 million each to 19 organizations through its foundation, Club for the Future.
