President Donald Trump sharply increased the amount of money he gave away through his foundation last year as the charity drew scrutiny during the campaign. A 2016 tax return posted on the nonprofit monitoring website GuideStar shows that the Donald J. Trump Foundation gave away $3.1 million, more than it did in the prior three years combined. Most of that money came from a fundraiser for veterans held by Trump early last year. Another donor is the Daryl and Steven Roth Foundation, which gave $50,000. Aside from his foundation, Trump donated $1 million to the Marine Corps-Law Enforcement Foundation, a charity run by a friend.
