The Treasury Secretary can accept, on behalf of the United States, any gift given in honor or memory of President Kennedy. The Secretary then decides which government account the money goes into — including Kennedy Center accounts — based on what best fits the donor's wishes.

This section authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury to accept, on the United States' behalf, any gift the Secretary determines was given in honor of or in memory of the late President John F. Kennedy. The Secretary then pays that money into whichever appropriation or other account — including accounts set up under this subchapter's authorized appropriations — the Secretary judges will best carry out the donor's intent.
