Last week, Trump said he would donate $1 million of his personal fortune to groups helping storm victims in Texas and Louisiana.

But it was not clear at the time which groups would receive a contribution from the president, and White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders repeatedly solicited input from reporters on possible charities.

In a statement Wednesday, the White House said that several of the recipients had been chosen at the recommendation of the press corps.

Trump's pledge is among the largest made to a charitable cause by a sitting president, according to The New York Times. Meanwhile, Trump has also urged others to donate to Harvey relief efforts.
