Ok, I looked, he has a piss poor record with donations: Educational and Research Foundry10: Newell co-founded this educational company focused on exploring and researching non-traditional learning methods. -not a donation. In 2024, foundry10 had total expenses of approximately $2.02 million, against a revenue of $1.83 million. He spent more on shitters for this yacht. Racing and Motorsports Heart of Racing: In 2020, Newell co-founded this racing team to raise funds for children's charities. -no, this is to own a race team. Seattle Children's Hospital: The Heart of Racing partners with the Seattle Children's Hospital, with a commitment to raise money for its pediatric cardiac care unit. no actual money mentioned. Space and Other Projects Gnome Chompski: In 2020, Newell sent a titanium replica of the Half-Life 2 gnome, "Gnome Chompski," into space with Rocket Lab. Blew junk into space, ok Elon. Donation: He pledged to donate $1 to the Starship Children's Hospital in Auckland, New Zealand, for every person who watched the launch stream within 24 hours. The total amount raised was over $286,000. Not exactly charity. it was a tool to get people to watch a launch. Other projects: Newell has also autographed posters for charity auctions, such as for the AbleGamers Charity. I'm sure tens of dollars were raised.

I dunno, I imagine a few of the Gabe Newell cult worshipers would pay top dollar for the signature.
