Search our free database of charitable gifts of $1 million or more from individuals. You can sort by cause and by donation size to learn about contributions nonprofits or donors have announced publicly.
This database is updated regularly to include new items. If you know about a recent gift of $1 million or more that should be added to this directory, please send a message to gifts@philanthropy.com.
To get a better picture of giving by the wealthy, see our Philanthropy 50 rankings, which are based on the total amount Americans donate to charitable causes in a single year. The Philanthropy 50 is the most complete ranking of giving by the superrich because it includes donations that people have not previously disclosed to the public.
