This giving area includes gratitude giving to organizations that have been instrumental in our personal journeys. It also includes grants to non-profits that we consider particularly inspiring and that do not fit a current initiative, or that are doing work adjacent to one of our giving areas in Sunlight Giving or Solidarity Giving. In many ways, Family Giving is a local reflection of the work of Sunlight Giving, Solidarity Giving, and our Empathy Building initiative.
This area has a small discretionary allocation, less than 5% of our total budget, and has no public guidelines. Because our primary focus is on our initiative-based programs, we have a hands-off relationship with these grantees. We do not highlight these grantees on our website, but the vast majority appear on our downloadable grants list. A select few have been omitted in order to maintain the privacy of our family.
