Family Giving

What We Fund

This giving area includes gratitude giving to organizations that have been instrumental in our personal journeys, grants to organizations that we consider particularly inspiring and that do not fit a current program or initiative, and gifts to organizations that are doing work adjacent to one of our current 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.

How We Fund

Because our primary focus is on our initiative-based programs, we have a hands-off relationship with these grantees. This area has a small discretionary budget, roughly 5% of our total budget, and has no public guidelines. 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.
