    Trump’s representatives did not respond to inquiries regarding her donation but Heather Fallas, a cousin of Mrs. Sassoon who posted the campaign to the crowdfunding site said they were elated to receive Trump’s donation, According to DNAinfo.com.

    “I thought that was beautiful,” said Fallas. “She’s a busy woman. She has her own life, her own family. She didn’t have to stop to do that. That, to me, was very touching.”

    More than $126,000 has been raised for the center over the past 18 days.

    Beautiful.
    Out of curiosity, how do they know that it’s really her and not someone who donated using her name? (it’s common to see donations on charity from names like “Barack Obama” and “thank you”)

    Any yukel can post their name as “Ivanka Trump”, and then the rest of the yukels go to town with the news, and contact the Trump administration. Hilarious.

    Hi! It’s me, Ivanka.

    I read vosizneias when I’m bored.

    Thanks for reading my comment. I hope it makes the news.
