Jeff Skoll Group contributions received by SMP

When the employer bucket and the committee cell are the same number

JEFF SKOLL GROUP is the grouped employer/industry key. SMP is committee C00484642. This page reports itemized individual gifts that carried both labels. The $8,000,000 figure is the intersection. Because the industry total is also $8,000,000, the leftover share to other committees in this grouping is $0 as stored. That identity of totals is a table fact, not proof that only one person gave or that the Group is a PAC.

Proper-name employer strings often reflect a family office, a holding company, or a filer-entered brand. LobbyVault does not rewrite JEFF SKOLL GROUP into eBay, Participant, or a foundation name. Those entities, if they appear, are other keys. SMP is a separate committee ID; the three-letter name is the FEC registered short title in this packet.

Seven contributions totaling $8,000,000 is an extremely thin line count. The join is a handful of large itemized gifts, not a mass file.

Reading a 100% share without overclaiming

One hundred percent of the $8,000,000 JEFF SKOLL GROUP grouping is in this join. That does not mean SMP received only this money. The committee overlay includes other employers. It also does not mean the Group has no political activity outside FEC individual receipts — unitemized gifts, state filings, and independent expenditures are simply not in this source note.

Complete overlap inside one indexed string is still indexed text. If a filer later uses a different employer spelling, that money would land in another row and this 100% figure would no longer describe the new key.

Seven lines into C00484642

SMP received $8,000,000 from JEFF SKOLL GROUP-coded receipts across 7 contributions. Dividing dollars by gifts gives about $1,142,857 per contribution. That mean is arithmetic on seven lines. One or two very large gifts can dominate the average. The packet does not name donors or split the 7 rows by cycle.

SMP also appears in other employer-committee ties, including Melvin Simon Productions in this same slice. Those are other cells. This page stays on JEFF SKOLL GROUP.

Family-office labels and federal awards

This join does not prove that Jeff Skoll Group funded SMP as a corporate treasury, and it does not connect the $8,000,000 to USAspending awards. Philanthropy, film production, and federal contracts are other ledgers. An employer string matching a public figure’s name is still a form field.

Correlation between a proper-name grouping and a party-aligned super PAC-style committee is a reporting pattern. Causation of election outcomes is not in the seven lines.

Where to open SMP without treating it as this bucket

The Jeff Skoll Group industry page keeps the $8,000,000 grouping — which, in these facts, is the same number as the join. The SMP committee page keeps C00484642 receipts from every employer. All industries ranks other proper-name keys. All FEC ties lists neighboring cells so this 100% overlap is not mistaken for SMP’s entire fundraising file.

A 100% share inside one indexed string is rare in this slice and easy to over-read. It means other committees received $0 of this particular key as stored, not that SMP received $0 from other employers. SMP's overlay is wider than seven lines. The $1,142,857 mean is $8,000,000 divided by 7 and will jump if the line count is even slightly different in a later refresh.

Identity of totals, and the other SMP employer cell

JEFF SKOLL GROUP's industry total and this join are both $8,000,000. MELVIN SIMON PRODUCTIONS also meets SMP (C00484642) in this ties index, with $6,755,600 across 163 contributions. Those are different employer keys. Adding $8,000,000 to $6,755,600 would stack two filters, not produce SMP's full receipts. Each cell has its own contribution count and mean.

Seven contributions are not seven unique people unless the receipts say so; the packet does not. Unitemized gifts are omitted. Independent expenditures by SMP, if filed, are omitted. Proper-name employer strings can reflect a family office; this page does not certify that. Quote $8,000,000, 7 itemized lines, 100% of the stored grouping, committee C00484642, and stop before writing a biography.

Questions

How much did Jeff Skoll Group-coded donors give SMP?

FEC.gov aggregates show $8,000,000 in itemized individual contributions grouped to JEFF SKOLL GROUP and received by SMP (C00484642). That join covers 7 contributions. The employer grouping across all committees is also $8,000,000. These figures are not independent expenditures.

Did all Jeff Skoll Group FEC money go to SMP?

In this indexed grouping, yes: $8,000,000 of $8,000,000, or 100%, is in the SMP join. That identity of totals applies to the stored key only. Other spellings, unitemized gifts, and independent expenditures are outside this page.

Does seven contributions mean seven donors?

Not necessarily. Seven is the contribution count, not a unique-person count. Repeat gifts by the same filer would still be multiple contributions. The packet does not publish a donor count for this cell.

Is SMP the same as Senate Majority PAC?

This page uses the committee name SMP and ID C00484642 as stored in the packet. It does not expand the acronym beyond that registered short title. Use the committee hub for C00484642 for the full FEC registration and other receipt types.
