Google Foundation

Google.org is legally separate from the Google Foundation. The foundation was founded earlier, with Google's help and with similar stated goals, and is a non-profit organization under section 501(c)(3) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code.
Its board consists of Google founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page, and Google vice-president Sheryl Sandberg. The two officer positions, besides Brilliant's as executive director, are both held by Gregory Miller, Google.org's Senior Advisor & Chief of Investments.
Google contributes services of some of its own employees to the foundation's work, and also funded the foundation with $90 million late in 2005.
