Most of the contributions to organizations on the list were not in the form of cash but in-kind donations, like a gift certificate for a round of golf or \"Sunday brunch for two.\"\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>In the end, NPR was able to confirm only about $800,000 in donations, less than one-fifth of what was claimed.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>[TrumpGiving]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Missing Donations and Discrepancies\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>As several organizations pointed out, the fact that 17 of them could not find a record of a donation does not necessarily mean they never received one. It could suggest that the donations were not significant enough to be remembered or written down, or it might be chalked up to a lack of precision in naming the recipients.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, the Trump Campaign document listed more than $21,000 in donations to the \"UCLA Foundation\" and the \"UCLA Women's Golf Program.\" Brian Haas, a spokesman for the university, said UCLA searched multiple times for records of donations, but came up empty-handed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We are unaware of these particular donations,\" Haas wrote in an email. \"If you can coax some additional information from the Trump Organization, perhaps that would help.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"rFyxKo32ECifNdOhdcK1YHBkIwYr2KC9\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Trump website also cited a donation to \"Cystic Fibrosis\" — as in the genetic disease, rather than a specific charity supporting research. The Trump Campaign document also has an entry for a $1,182.50 donation to \"Child Abuse.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several organizations listed are not charities at all, such as the City of Avalon, California, and the California Department of Veteran Affairs. Both said they could find no record of a donation from Trump or his golf club.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then there's the entry for a $152.14 donation to the \"U.S. Department of the Navy.\" (That amount indicates the donation was for a gift certificate for \"Sunday brunch or two\" at the golf club.) In an email, a Navy official told NPR, \"We have no information about whether or how this specific gift was given to the Navy.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But a handful of organizations in the Rancho Palos Verdes area do report receiving \"generous\" cash contributions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One example comes from John Williams. A former Kiwanis Club president, Williams now runs the Peninsula Symphony, a small orchestra that performs free concerts. He says Trump helped support the Kiwanis Club's Palos Verdes Marathon from 2005 to 2007, with three donations of $15,000 each, and has supported the symphony through in-kind donations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I would have to say he's been a very good community supporter,\" Williams said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>In-kind Donations\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>NPR's other key finding was that overwhelmingly, charitable giving by Trump National involved gift certificates, such as the \"Sunday brunch for two\" or \"twosome for golf\" (worth approximately $600).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>The Washington Post\u003c/em> has \u003ca href=\"https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/a-portrait-of-trump-the-donor-free-rounds-of-golf-but-no-personal-cash/2016/04/10/373b9b92-fb40-11e5-9140-e61d062438bb_story.html?utm_term=.fe3ad4ea93f4\">documented\u003c/a> that Trump properties around the country also prefer this type of donation.

But the gift certificate was valid only Mondays through Thursdays and expired within six months.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In most cases, experts say, cash donations are also much more valuable to a charity than in-kind donations. To turn a gift certificate into cash, a charity typically must hold an auction, which takes time and effort. And the bid usually comes in at less than the market value of the in-kind donation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jacob Harold, the president of GuideStar, which tracks nonprofits, says when companies claim an in-kind donation is worth the full sticker price, it can create a false impression.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If you are saying, 'We gave $5 million away over the last few years,' and that's at market prices,\" says Harold, \"that's actually somewhat misleading.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>A Controversial Source for the $5 Million Estimate\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>So how does the total charitable giving of Trump's golf club stack up? NPR was able to verify only about $800,000 in charitable gifts, even treating in-kind donations at full market value.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because the Trump Organization did not respond, NPR could not ask how the club reached the $5 million figure listed on its website.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's possible the club was including a sometimes controversial federal tax break: conservation easements.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In January 2015, Trump made an agreement with the Palos Verdes Peninsula Land Conservancy to set aside the golf course's 11.5-acre driving range as environmentally valuable open space.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"XzZs3sMTB9Fc5FpydKa5CTq40Kp5g1Vy\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The easement protects the land and prohibits harmful uses on the property such as dumping, landfill, and also has restrictions on waste and impermeable surfacing among many other items,\" said a \u003ca href=\"http://pvplc.org/_news/docs/releases/TrumpConEasementEDNoQuote.pdf\">press release\u003c/a> from the land conservancy. \u003ca href=\"http://www.dailybreeze.com/environment-and-nature/20150115/donald-trump-turns-over-115-acre-easement-in-rancho-palos-verdes-for-open-space\">Trump said\u003c/a> the easement represented a significant gift, because the land was worth \"much more than $25 million,\" and he could get a windfall if he built and sold houses on that property.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though, \u003ca href=\"http://www.pbs.org/newshour/rundown/review-finds-trumps-charity-donations-modest/\">as The Associated Press has reported\u003c/a>, it's unclear whether Trump ever had concrete plans to build houses on the property. City officials also told NPR that Trump faced significant barriers to building because of the area's geological instability.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Conservation easements can help protect the environment and can also offer valuable tax breaks for companies, especially golf courses. They've also come under \u003ca href=\"https://www.wsj.com/articles/donald-trumps-land-donations-put-him-in-line-for-conservation-tax-breaks-1457656717\">increased scrutiny from the Internal Revenue Service.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump's California golf course before and after the agreement looks the same. The driving range is still a driving range.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The smell test isn't great in that case,\" Harold, of GuideStar, said. Claiming a charitable donation for preserving a driving range as open space \"doesn't feel like a sacrifice.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's unclear what, if any, deductions Trump or the Trump Organization claimed from the easement agreement. The land conservancy itself says it does not assign dollar values to the land. So that may be a question only Trump's tax returns can answer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He has not released those.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>If your organization has received a donation from Trump National Golf Club, Los Angeles, or if you believe your organization was wrongly included on the golf club's website, please let us know.

Most of the contributions to organizations on the list were not in the form of cash but in-kind donations, like a gift certificate for a round of golf or \"Sunday brunch for two.\"\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>In the end, NPR was able to confirm only about $800,000 in donations, less than one-fifth of what was claimed.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>[TrumpGiving]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Missing Donations and Discrepancies\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>As several organizations pointed out, the fact that 17 of them could not find a record of a donation does not necessarily mean they never received one. It could suggest that the donations were not significant enough to be remembered or written down, or it might be chalked up to a lack of precision in naming the recipients.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, the Trump Campaign document listed more than $21,000 in donations to the \"UCLA Foundation\" and the \"UCLA Women's Golf Program.\" Brian Haas, a spokesman for the university, said UCLA searched multiple times for records of donations, but came up empty-handed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We are unaware of these particular donations,\" Haas wrote in an email. \"If you can coax some additional information from the Trump Organization, perhaps that would help.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Trump website also cited a donation to \"Cystic Fibrosis\" — as in the genetic disease, rather than a specific charity supporting research. The Trump Campaign document also has an entry for a $1,182.50 donation to \"Child Abuse.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several organizations listed are not charities at all, such as the City of Avalon, California, and the California Department of Veteran Affairs. Both said they could find no record of a donation from Trump or his golf club.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then there's the entry for a $152.14 donation to the \"U.S. Department of the Navy.\" (That amount indicates the donation was for a gift certificate for \"Sunday brunch or two\" at the golf club.) In an email, a Navy official told NPR, \"We have no information about whether or how this specific gift was given to the Navy.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But a handful of organizations in the Rancho Palos Verdes area do report receiving \"generous\" cash contributions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One example comes from John Williams. A former Kiwanis Club president, Williams now runs the Peninsula Symphony, a small orchestra that performs free concerts. He says Trump helped support the Kiwanis Club's Palos Verdes Marathon from 2005 to 2007, with three donations of $15,000 each, and has supported the symphony through in-kind donations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I would have to say he's been a very good community supporter,\" Williams said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>In-kind Donations\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>NPR's other key finding was that overwhelmingly, charitable giving by Trump National involved gift certificates, such as the \"Sunday brunch for two\" or \"twosome for golf\" (worth approximately $600).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>The Washington Post\u003c/em> has \u003ca href=\"https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/a-portrait-of-trump-the-donor-free-rounds-of-golf-but-no-personal-cash/2016/04/10/373b9b92-fb40-11e5-9140-e61d062438bb_story.html?utm_term=.fe3ad4ea93f4\">documented\u003c/a> that Trump properties around the country also prefer this type of donation. Some nonprofits welcome such gifts.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">'It may not be altruism. It may just be marketing his business.'\u003ccite>Daniel Borochoff, CharityWatch\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Judith Opdahl, the executive director of the \u003ca href=\"http://www.cancersupportredondobeach.org/\">Cancer Support Community Redondo Beach\u003c/a>, did not offer specific dollar amounts but says the Trump Organization has been \"very philanthropic\" by providing discounted event space and in-kind donations for charity auctions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Daniel Borochoff, of the charity watchdog CharityWatch, says many companies use in-kind donations as a way to promote their business and build goodwill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If the public or potential customers have good feelings towards the business, they're more likely to play golf there or shop there,\" Borochoff said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But he is skeptical about the value of such philanthropy, noting that such donations help build the Trump brand and bring in new customers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It may not be altruism,\" Borochoff said. \"It may just be marketing his business.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Borochoff says another reason companies offer in-kind donations is that such gifts rarely cost the company much money. They also frequently come with strings attached.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, a \u003ca href=\"http://www.cui.edu/LinkClick.aspx?fileticket=S1iocEalHjA%3D&portalid=0&language=en-US\">charity event held by Concordia University, Irvine\u003c/a> auctioned a \"twosome of Golf\" at the Trump golf club. But the gift certificate was valid only Mondays through Thursdays and expired within six months.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In most cases, experts say, cash donations are also much more valuable to a charity than in-kind donations. To turn a gift certificate into cash, a charity typically must hold an auction, which takes time and effort. And the bid usually comes in at less than the market value of the in-kind donation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jacob Harold, the president of GuideStar, which tracks nonprofits, says when companies claim an in-kind donation is worth the full sticker price, it can create a false impression.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If you are saying, 'We gave $5 million away over the last few years,' and that's at market prices,\" says Harold, \"that's actually somewhat misleading.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>A Controversial Source for the $5 Million Estimate\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>So how does the total charitable giving of Trump's golf club stack up? NPR was able to verify only about $800,000 in charitable gifts, even treating in-kind donations at full market value.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because the Trump Organization did not respond, NPR could not ask how the club reached the $5 million figure listed on its website.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's possible the club was including a sometimes controversial federal tax break: conservation easements.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In January 2015, Trump made an agreement with the Palos Verdes Peninsula Land Conservancy to set aside the golf course's 11.5-acre driving range as environmentally valuable open space.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The easement protects the land and prohibits harmful uses on the property such as dumping, landfill, and also has restrictions on waste and impermeable surfacing among many other items,\" said a \u003ca href=\"http://pvplc.org/_news/docs/releases/TrumpConEasementEDNoQuote.pdf\">press release\u003c/a> from the land conservancy. \u003ca href=\"http://www.dailybreeze.com/environment-and-nature/20150115/donald-trump-turns-over-115-acre-easement-in-rancho-palos-verdes-for-open-space\">Trump said\u003c/a> the easement represented a significant gift, because the land was worth \"much more than $25 million,\" and he could get a windfall if he built and sold houses on that property.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though, \u003ca href=\"http://www.pbs.org/newshour/rundown/review-finds-trumps-charity-donations-modest/\">as The Associated Press has reported\u003c/a>, it's unclear whether Trump ever had concrete plans to build houses on the property. City officials also told NPR that Trump faced significant barriers to building because of the area's geological instability.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Conservation easements can help protect the environment and can also offer valuable tax breaks for companies, especially golf courses. They've also come under \u003ca href=\"https://www.wsj.com/articles/donald-trumps-land-donations-put-him-in-line-for-conservation-tax-breaks-1457656717\">increased scrutiny from the Internal Revenue Service.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump's California golf course before and after the agreement looks the same. The driving range is still a driving range.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The smell test isn't great in that case,\" Harold, of GuideStar, said. Claiming a charitable donation for preserving a driving range as open space \"doesn't feel like a sacrifice.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's unclear what, if any, deductions Trump or the Trump Organization claimed from the easement agreement. The land conservancy itself says it does not assign dollar values to the land. So that may be a question only Trump's tax returns can answer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He has not released those.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>If your organization has received a donation from Trump National Golf Club, Los Angeles, or if you believe your organization was wrongly included on the golf club's website, please let us know.

The girl, Srey Art, wanted to study computer science, but she had no experience so she decided to major in business instead.

(Justin Sullivan/Getty Images)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The weather may have warmed up and the holidays are in full swing, but for plenty of people in the Bay Area the outlook is grim.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Food banks around the Bay Area continue to face shortfalls at a time of year when demand is also the highest. At Thanksgiving, \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2013/11/26/119446/food-bank-donations-down\" target=\"_blank\">KQED reported on the drop in donations at regional food banks\u003c/a>. The recent cold snap sent more people looking for help and put a deeper freeze on an already sluggish holiday donation season.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The holiday saga continues,\" said Kathy Jackson, CEO of \u003ca href=\"http://www.shfb.org/\" target=\"_blank\">Second Harvest Food Bank\u003c/a> of Santa Clara and San Mateo counties. Inventory, she said, is at an all-time low. The food bank currently has less than two weeks of inventory on hand.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Second Harvest has raised just one-quarter of the $13.2 million it aims to bring in during its holiday campaign. Nearly half of the money raised for the year typically comes in during the holidays, so low holiday donations can mean thin budgets the rest of the year. The \u003ca href=\"http://www.sffoodbank.org/\" target=\"_blank\">San Francisco and Marin Food Banks\u003c/a> are also still $500,000 short for what they usually expect at this time of year, said Paul Ash, executive director. That's down from about a $900,000 shortfall at the end of October — good news, he said, but still not good enough.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The problem is that with the economy rebounding for some, most people think there isn't as much of a need for food banks or shelter services. But that perception is wrong.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The economy is contributing to people thinking, 'Well, everyone must have a job now, maybe I don't need to give to the food bank,' and that probably applies to other services,\" Ash said. \"That's just not what we're seeing. Our lines at the pantries and the number of people we're serving are just as high as they were a year ago.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We have more food going out the door than coming in the door,\" Jackson said. \"It's the disconnect,\" she said: If need and donations both went down or both went up, it'd be easier to deal with. But, with donations down and need remaining high, it's causing concern among the food banks and service providers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition, cuts to federally funded food-assistance programs that went into effect on Nov. 1 have also driven more people to food banks just to make ends meet.

At Thanksgiving, \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2013/11/26/119446/food-bank-donations-down\" target=\"_blank\">KQED reported on the drop in donations at regional food banks\u003c/a>. The recent cold snap sent more people looking for help and put a deeper freeze on an already sluggish holiday donation season.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The holiday saga continues,\" said Kathy Jackson, CEO of \u003ca href=\"http://www.shfb.org/\" target=\"_blank\">Second Harvest Food Bank\u003c/a> of Santa Clara and San Mateo counties. Inventory, she said, is at an all-time low. The food bank currently has less than two weeks of inventory on hand.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Second Harvest has raised just one-quarter of the $13.2 million it aims to bring in during its holiday campaign. Nearly half of the money raised for the year typically comes in during the holidays, so low holiday donations can mean thin budgets the rest of the year. The \u003ca href=\"http://www.sffoodbank.org/\" target=\"_blank\">San Francisco and Marin Food Banks\u003c/a> are also still $500,000 short for what they usually expect at this time of year, said Paul Ash, executive director. That's down from about a $900,000 shortfall at the end of October — good news, he said, but still not good enough.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The problem is that with the economy rebounding for some, most people think there isn't as much of a need for food banks or shelter services.

Our lines at the pantries and the number of people we're serving are just as high as they were a year ago.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We have more food going out the door than coming in the door,\" Jackson said. \"It's the disconnect,\" she said: If need and donations both went down or both went up, it'd be easier to deal with. But, with donations down and need remaining high, it's causing concern among the food banks and service providers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition, cuts to federally funded food-assistance programs that went into effect on Nov. 1 have also driven more people to food banks just to make ends meet.
