A quick Google search turns up this page[1] that lists the donation as "18.5 million to establish the [MCC]". That figure would make much more sense compared to the other figures.
Edit:
Try this Google search. The real number is almost certainly 18.5 MILLION, which makes this table total up to about 18 billion dollars instead of 37 billion. It's amusing how people are jumping through hoops to force this 18.5 billion figure to make sense rather than looking for a citation. (But rest assured that lists assembled by Internet blogs are reliable sources of information.) I'm sure we'll start seeing this "fact" start turning up in research essays and other linkbait blogs.
