Crown Prince Abdullah of Saudi Arabia

Crown Prince Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz Al-Saud, Deputy Prime Minister and Head of the National Guard of Saudi Arabia is one of the largest donors to the Clinton Foundation. Although donations to the foundation are not disclosed on the grounds of confidentiality, it is reported that the Saudi Royal Family has given the organization in excess of $10 million for the Clinton presidential library.

An official press release in the wake of this revelation stated, "As president, [Clinton] was beloved around the world, so it should come as no surprise that there has been an outpouring of financial support from around the world to sustain his post-presidential work,"
