Iirc, gnome also got a million from the Sovereign Tech Fund a while back (I think it was them + that amount of money, don't quote me on this).
Imo: both are good and deserve it. They sometimes have different ways of thinking and goals, but both are usible for everyone - even for non-techies.
While I'm a gnome fanboy, it's really cool to see financial support for good desktops!
