Charity?

Trump’s staff insisted that those personal gifts existed — but Trump wouldn’t provide any details about them. “There’s no way for you to know or understand what those gifts are or when they are made,” Trump spokeswoman Hope Hicks told BuzzFeed, which has also investigated Trump’s charity.

So The Post looked for evidence of those personal donations, surveying 207 charities (so far) that seemed to have the closest ties to Trump. These were groups to which Trump had given Trump Foundation money, charities he’d written about in his books, charities he’d praised on Twitter — and charities that honored Trump at a charity ball. The firm DonorSearch also provided its database, which includes records of more than 101 million charitable gifts.

All of that turned up just one personal donation — made by Trump, using his own money — during a period of more than seven years.

That was the stretch between 2008, when Trump made his last personal donation to his own foundation, and May of this year — when Trump, under pressure, fulfilled a vow to give $1 million to a veterans’ charity.

The one gift in that stretch went to the Police Athletic League of New York City.
