There are plenty of people who donate money like this anonymously. Perhaps not quite this amount, but for example my kid's Waldorf school recently got a large anonymous donation of several millions of dollars from "a member of the community." Bloomberg is definitely looking to get something back here, though. Why else would he brag about this in the NYT?
