Much of the money will go to causes that Sandberg has supported in the past, reported the document. She has also given to women’s empowerment groups, such as Lean In, to help support women in the workplace, SiliconValley.com reported.
In 2014, Sandberg signed The Giving Pledge, the commitment by wealthy people to give the majority of their wealth to philanthropy in their lifetime, the report said.
