Google, Apple, Microsoft, Meta among tech giants donating to Trump’s $300 million White House ballroom project
The Trump administration has begun the demolition of the White House East Wing to make way for a new ballroom, and the project is being financially backed by some of the largest technology companies. According to a report, the White House released a donor list showing that the estimated $300 million project—up from a $200 million estimate in July—is being entirely funded by private, tax-deductible donations made to the nonprofit Trust for the National Mall.
President Donald Trump has consistently vowed that no taxpayer money would be used for the build, Fortune reported.
