Between May 2021 and May 2022, Mbappé was being paid around $545,000 each week by PSG.
However, at the end of last term, he signed a contract extension with the French club that saw him become the highest paid player in world soccer.
According to Sky Sports, the three-year deal is worth $4.9 million per month, while the 23-year-old was also given a $123 million signing bonus.
In 2018, Mbappé donated all of his World Cup match fees and bonuses, believed to be around $490,000, to a children's charity, according to The Sun.
The following year, he donated $32,000 to help fund a private search for a missing plane, on which the late Nantes striker Emiliano Sala was traveling when it crashed.
According to Goal, in 2021, he also made a "very large" donation to the Abbe Pierre Foundation – a charity that helps people without housing.
"The Foundation sends its most sincere thanks to Kylian Mbappe for his generosity and his attention towards people in great precariousness," said the foundation in a statement at the time.
"His generosity will make it possible in particular to implement first aid actions, access to water and hygiene for people in very precarious situations, access to food and shelter for homeless people."
