Apple Pledged $25 Million to Trump's White House Ballroom
Apple pledged $25 million for Trump’s White House ballroom, according to a list of donors obtained by The Washington Post.

Chipmaker Nvidia also committed $25 million, making Apple and Nvidia two of the top donors. Other donors include Microsoft, Comcast, Amazon, Cisco, Meta, T-Mobile, HP, Google (from a lawsuit settlement), Palantir, Salesforce, and Micron. Private donations on the list totaled $333 million, with some donors paying in full and some paying in installments.
The White House has not publicly disclosed donation amounts, even though political giving typically requires public disclosure and adherence to campaign finance rules. The Trump administration is collecting ballroom donations through a nonprofit and moving the funds into a White House account controlled by Trump.
A White House spokesperson said the administration will « relentlessly pursue those responsible » for the leaked list.
The ballroom’s final cost hasn’t been released, but a June contractor estimate suggested it would cost around $600 million and that more than half of the money would come from taxpayer funds.
Trump says the ballroom will be around 90,000 square feet and will seat 1,000 guests. The White House’s East Wing was demolished to construct the ballroom.
