I wonder who the Anonymous donor was?

PROVO — Utah County Attorney David Leavitt is heading to Ukraine to help an anonymous donor select 500 families to support for an entire year.
"He wants to be generous, but he doesn't necessarily want the credit for it," Leavitt said.
Finding 500 families to support
To help with this generous donation, Leavitt will be on the ground in Ukraine trying to identify those 500 families. Once the families are identified, Leavitt says Visa gift cards will be provided to each family for immediate financial assistance until bank accounts can be set up.
"Really what we're trying to do is humanize what's going on in people's lives," he said.
Leavitt is more than familiar with the war-torn country; it's almost a home away from home of sorts for Leavitt and his wife. For 14 years (2004 to 2018), they worked in legal reform efforts in Ukraine as part of The Leavitt Institute for International Development.
"Our role was to teach the jury trial and American criminal law in 35 law schools throughout Ukraine and Moldova," Leavitt said.
