      Moron.

      A one million dollar donation to them it’s like you donating $1.

      They are not hard up for money, it’s because they either only started for because someone advised them to in order to influence public opinion or because they are upset about something the charitable organization did or didn’t do.

      That’s why you cannot count on the rich for anything. They are pedantic narcissists that demand constant validation, lest they use their money to destroy you.

        They did throw a bit of money at it, which helps a little. It’s still a mad scramble for the public schools that closed to reopen.
