The White House released a list of donors for Donald Trump’s multi-million-dollar ballroom, which has been under construction since September 2025 in Washington, D.C. Apart from big guns like Cameron Winklevoss and Harold Hamm, Trump has received donations from Big Tech companies, including Apple, Amazon, Microsoft, Google, and Meta, as per CNN.
President Donald Trump had assured in the past that the project would cost nothing to taxpayers. He had emphasized that it would be privately funded by donors and himself, as per CNN.
Co-founders of cryptocurrency exchange Gemini, Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and his family, and the Adelson family now appear on the list of donors shared by the White House.
While the administration had put the cost of the ballroom project at $200 million, Trump recently revealed that the ballroom construction would cost “about $300 million”.

Although it is not clear how much each donor is contributing to the ballroom project, Business Insider reports Alphabet Inc. Is contributing $22 million as part of a legal settlement over Donald Trump's YouTube suspension.
