Pure Good Foundation primarily funds workplace/employee-directed philanthropy, channeling most of its support through Benevity-managed online giving vehicles that permit Pure Good and Pure Storage employees to make and match donations. Nearly all dollars are large, centralized grants to U.S. and U.K./European online giving foundations rather than direct programmatic investments, indicating the foundation’s role as a corporate philanthropy facilitator. This structure supports broad, employee-selected causes rather than a small set of mission-specific nonprofits.
Pure Good Foundation’s recent giving is defined by employee-directed philanthropy routed through Benevity-managed online giving foundations. The largest grants in the file are not to a single program nonprofit, but to infrastructure organizations that cover monthly donations and grants made by Pure Good and Pure Storage employees across U.S., European, and Australian nonprofits. That pattern places the foundation in a facilitation role: it channels broad workplace giving rather than concentrating on one program area. Within that structure, the foundation still makes targeted grants. Kaboom Inc. received $92,763 to support the Playground Project, and San Francisco Aids Foundation received $5,200 for health, wellness, and social justice for communities most impacted by HIV. Pure Good Foundation also gave $20,475 and $16,025 to Globalgiving for a GTM Move to Modern campaign, showing that its support can extend to nonprofit infrastructure and modernization work as well as direct charitable programs. The recent record also includes smaller local grants, including support for Mountain View Whisman School District and The Please Foundation, alongside international workplace-giving allocations. Together, these grants show a foundation that combines centralized employee-giving vehicles with selective project and general support.
Employee giving infrastructure is the clearest theme. Pure Good Foundation gave $1,935,214 to American Online Giving Foundation Inc and $452,254 to The UK Online Giving Foundation Inc to cover monthly donations and grants made through Benevity to U.S. and European nonprofits. It also made a $5,337 grant to Australian Online Giving Foundation Inc for the same purpose, extending the model to Australia. The foundation also funds community and cause-specific projects. Kaboom Inc received $92,763 to support the Playground Project, linking the funder to playground development. In health and equity work, San Francisco Aids Foundation received $5,200 for health, wellness, and social justice for communities most impacted by HIV. A separate line of support goes to nonprofit operations and technology. Pure Good Foundation granted Globalgiving $20,475 for a GTM Move to Modern campaign, after a similar $16,025 grant in the prior year.
Pure Good Foundation’s grant sizes are bimodal. The typical grant size ranges from a p25 of $5,337 to a median of $16,025, with a p75 of $127,420. The grant list shows both very large centralized transfers and much smaller local or project-specific awards. The pattern is recurring rather than one-off in several cases: American Online Giving Foundation Inc and The UK Online Giving Foundation appear in multiple years, and Globalgiving was funded in two consecutive years for the same campaign. Pure Good Foundation is a regular funder, not a DAF, and it does not fund individuals or make program-related investments.

Highly concentrated: very few large grants that primarily fund third‑party workplace giving platforms; funding is recurrent to the same intermediaries and intended to enable employee donations across many beneficiary organizations rather than targeted, program-specific grants.
