WASHINGTON, Oct 29 (Reuters) – Trump administration official Frank Bisignano, who serves as Internal Revenue ​Service CEO and ‌as Social Security commissioner, said on Thursday he will donate $250 to each “Trump account” in his home ZIP ‌code ​in the Brooklyn ⁠borough of New ⁠York City for children aged 2 to 8 years.

• In a statement issued by ​the IRS, Bisignano, the former CEO of payments and financial ⁠technology firm ⁠Fiserv, said the payments ​would be available immediately for eligible ​children in ZIP code 11234.

• ‌The $250 donation adds to a $1,000 US Treasury contribution to accounts of children born from ⁠2025 through 2028. The tax-deferred investment accounts were created by last year’s ⁠Republican-passed ‌tax cuts.

• “This donation ⁠is an investment in ​the ‌children of Brooklyn, giving ​them a ⁠boost in their personal wealth building journeys,” Bisignano said in the statement.
