00:00Hello, everybody.

00:08Hello, Mr. President.

00:10Nice to see you again.

00:12That was a long news conference we had before, wasn't it?

00:15Today is Giving Tuesday.

00:18I don't know if anybody's heard that one before,

00:20but it is indeed Giving Tuesday,

00:23one of the biggest days of the year for philanthropy and charitable giving.

00:28And this afternoon, Michael and Susan Dell

00:31are committing to one of the largest private donations in American history,

00:35which will directly benefit the next generation of American children

00:39through the new Trump Accounts program

00:41that we created in our one big, beautiful bill.

00:45Michael and Susan came to see me, along with Brad,

00:48and they said, you know, this is an idea.

00:51And I said, I think, you know, it's just so good and so unique,

00:57but it is indeed Giving Tuesday,

01:00one of the biggest days of the year for philanthropy and charitable giving.

01:04In honor of America's 250th anniversary,

01:08the Dells are announcing today that they are giving 25 million American children

01:14$250 each to save and to invest in their personal Trump account.

01:20Now, that's the equivalent of $6.25 billion.

01:25In other words, to put it succinctly,

01:29Michael and Susan are giving $6,250,000,000 in total,

01:38and as a total contribution.

01:40That's big stuff.

01:41I don't care who you are.

01:43That's big.

01:44Come here.

01:45Give me a hand.

01:46Let me have a little of that luck rub off.

01:50That's fantastic, Susan.

01:52These gifts will be available to the first 25 million children aged 10

01:57and under the sign, the zip codes,

02:00where their median income is $150,000 or less,

02:04which will directly benefit the next generation of American children

02:08through the new Trump accounts program.

02:11This will give millions of dollars, millions of children,

02:14middle-class families a stake in American prosperity,

02:18a benefit from the rising stock market,

02:20and a better shot at the American dream.

02:22It really gives them a shot at the American dream.

02:26Michael and Susan, I want to thank you

02:27for this extraordinary act of kindness and patriotism and charity.

02:31Many others will follow Michael and Susan's example

02:34and make their own contributions.

02:36I'll be doing it too.

02:38And, you know, we believe the smartest investment that we can make

02:41is an investment in children.

02:43And this act has created a platform for families and friends

02:52and communities and companies and philanthropists

02:56to contribute to these accounts to create a savings and opportunity

03:03and prosperity for tens of millions of children in this country.

03:09We also saw that this act would become a platform.

03:15We believe that when children have a future that they can see is worth saving for,

03:24then that will help build hope and opportunity and prosperity for generations to come.

03:32So we're so excited to be doing this and hope to have many people join in our efforts.

03:38Thank you so much.

03:39Thank you Susan.

03:40It's so beautiful.
