There are restricted donations, certainly, and I suppose those restrictions
could be considered terms. A restricted donation is not a contractual
arrangement though (a contract requires consideration - if there is
consideration then it isn't a donation), so I would not use the word
"terms", which is normally used in reference to contracts.

In any case, the announcement of this donation didn't mention any
restrictions.
