Hillary Clinton gave $1,042,000 to charity last year, with $1 million going to the Clinton Family Foundation, according to her 2015 tax return released Friday.
The Clinton Family Foundation is a charitable vehicle used by the Clintons and an entirely separate entity from the scandal-plagued Clinton Foundation. Bill Clinton acts as the foundation’s president while Hillary Clinton is its secretary and treasurer. Chelsea Clinton is the director. They do not compensate themselves from the group.
Almost all of the money the Clintons have written off as charity on their tax returns was given to the Clinton Family Foundation. From this foundation, the Clintons then cut donations to numerous charities including the American Nurses Foundation, Arkansas Children’s Hospital Foundation, and Georgetown University, among others.
