Contribution records pending verification. We match federal contributions by contributor name, and this record contains contributions dated before this person could have made them — so some or all of it belongs to someone who shares their name. We are not publishing figures we cannot stand behind. The underlying FEC data is public and unchanged; what is withheld here is our attribution of it.

Score Breakdown

34.6
Public Benefit Score
The PBS is a weighted average of 2 components. The formula is open and versioned — the weight percentages below show how much each component contributes to the final score.
Philanthropy65% weight
Evidenced charitable giving — built on what they actually give each year, not parked assets. Dominated by generosity (annual giving relative to net worth — the share of your fortune you give), plus the absolute scale of that giving, plus a small nudge for signing the Giving Pledge (a commitment, not a realized action).
Data: ProPublica 990 charitable disbursements, net worth, The Giving Pledge registry
Transparency35% weight
How much sourced, public accountability data exists — net worth, political contributions, SEC filings, foundation 990s, news coverage, and a verified profile. More public disclosure scores higher.
