(Bloomberg) -- Microsoft Corp., Alphabet Inc.’s Google, and Adobe Inc. are each donating $1 million to Donald Trump’s inauguration fund, joining the roster of technology companies shelling out to back the incoming US president’s festivities later this month. 

Spokespeople for the companies confirmed the donations on Thursday. The software makers and search giant join peers such as Amazon.com Inc. and Meta Platforms Inc. as well as OpenAI Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman in donating to the incoming administration’s fund. 

Microsoft contributed $500,000 to inaugural funds in both 2017 and 2021. 

Apple Inc. Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook also is giving $1 million to the inaugural committee, Axios reported last week. Apple didn’t respond to a request for comment.
