One picky problem is called the "Anti-deficiency Act".     
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antideficiency_Act  
While this Wikipedia article doesn't clearly state it, I believe that one thing 
the Anti-deficiency Act prohibits is private entities from contributing  money 
to government projects.  Although, I don't know if the ADA would prohibit a 
private entity from simply building a wall, on private land, at the usual and 
expected distance from the border, at a location that the Federal Government 
wasn't planning to block....(cough, cough) (ahem, ahem...)
