US President Donald Trump
plans to donate $1 million to aid efforts in the aftermath of Hurricane
Harvey, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said Thursday.
"I'm happy to tell you that he … would like to join in the efforts that a
lot of the people that we've seen across this country do and he's
pledging $1 million of personal money to the fund," said Sanders, who
then told reporters at the briefing room that Trump was interested in
their suggestions on where to direct the donation.
Despite controversy throughout his presidential campaign over Trump's
history of charitable giving, Sanders said Tuesday that he would be
making the donation to those in the region affected by Harvey with
pride.
"He'll pledge, proudly, $1 million of his own personal money to help the people of both Texas and Louisiana," she said.
