I never quite got that one, either. In all the years I've visited Rockefeller Center to see "The Tree," I've never once heard anyone ask who donated it. There may be a plaque on it somewhere, but I've never seen nor looked for one.
It is different in Boston. The Boston tree is donated by Nova Scotia, in thanks for aid from Boston to Halifax after the 1913 Halifax explosion and fire. The story is part of the lighting ceremony.
