The CEO of a woman-owned, disadvantaged small business holding government contracts emerged as a major Republican donor in October 2025, giving more than $4 million to groups backing President Donald Trump—donations permitted under federal law when made from an executive’s personal funds.
In October 2025, Michelle D’Souza contributed $4 million to MAGA Inc., a PAC aligned with President Donald Trump, and another $177,000 to the Republican National Committee, according to records with the Federal Election Commission—the contributions were 6,400% more than the $64,000 she’d donated over the previous 13 years, almost half of which went to Democrats.
D’Souza is the CEO and an owner of Unified Business Technologies (UBT), a small business specializing in construction management, information technology and manufacturing that has been awarded $250 million in federal contracts since 2008.
