Donald Trump donated $250 each for this seat and a seat named for his then-wife Ivana during the Villagers’ Theatre 1987 capital fundraising campaign.
A $500 donation made by Donald Trump to the Villagers Theatre during a 1987 fundraising campaign has garnered some national attention in the form of a July 13 Washington Post story.
The story, headlined, “We found something that a charity named in honor of Donald Trump. It is a chair,” was spurred by the Post’s ongoing investigation into claims by Trump of donations of millions of dollars out of his own pocket to charities. According to the article, out of more than 200 organizations contacted, reporters could find only 13 groups that reported personal gifts from Trump.
