This list covers gifts since 1967. Last updated on August 30, 2021. Supplements to earlier gifts are counted separately. Value of gifts is based on information from institutions or donors at the time the gifts were promised, and is not subsequently adjusted for inflation. In cases of stock, property, art, and other noncash donations, actual value may have increased or decreased since the gifts were pledged or received. Value of gifts to non-U.S. institutions, if not announced in U.S. dollars, is rendered in U.S. dollars according to the exchange rate prevailing when the gift was announced.
