Searching for evidence of Trump’s personal giving
The Washington Post has contacted more than 250 charities with some ties to the GOP nominee in an effort to find proof of the millions he has said he donated to them. We’ve mostly been unsuccessful.



"In an effort to find proof of Trump's personal giving, The Post has contacted more than 250 charities with some ties to the GOP nominee. Some got money from the Trump Foundation. In other cases, Trump had a personal connection to the charity or its leaders . Some were charities that DonorSearch database records indicated he might have given to. A variety of other reasons included media mentions, gala attendance, or involvement with Trump's TV show "Celebrity Apprentice."

So far, The Post's search has turned up little. Between 2008 and this May — when Trump made good on a pledge to give $1 million to a veterans' group — its search has identified just one personal gift from Trump's own pocket.

If you have any information about a charitable gift given by Donald Trump, please email [e-mail].
