Meryl Streep and her husband, Don Gummer, are charitable folks.

Like, really, really charitable — donating millions quietly over the years.

Streep and Gummer donated $20,000 to two schools recently, but it also came to light that they’ve given away millions over the years, almost secretly.

Well, not that they were trying to keep it a secret, they just weren’t shouting their philanthropy from the rooftops.

Streep and her husband donated almost $2 million to Vassar College in the last three years through their Silver Mountain Arts Foundation.

The foundation gives to the arts, as well as health organizations, with donations ranging between $1,000 and $1 million.

They also donate annually to the Opus School in Harlem, which was the school in Streep’s “Music of the Heart.”

In 2010, they donated $2.13 million to Vassar, Oxfam America, New York’s City Meals on Wheels and Coalition for the Homeless.

They also give to local charities in Connecticut, support Boston and Illinois museums and gave $200,000 to the National Women’s Museum in Alexandria, Virginia.

This is why Meryl Streep is the Goddess of the Universe.
