Last week, @Figma went public in one of the largest IPOs in history. But behind the scenes, this IPO had another big winner: charity 🥳

In 2024, @Figma employees set aside nearly 1 million shares of stock for charity through the @DaffyGiving Private Stock Donation Program. Yes, nearly 1 million shares. 🤯

@figma @DaffyGiving At the close of the first day of trading, those shares were worth over $100M set aside exclusively for charity. 💛 This kind of generosity doesn’t happen by accident. It takes leadership, and it takes a company willing to think differently about equity and giving. 🙏

@figma @DaffyGiving Like many late-stage private companies, @Figma ran a tender offer last year to let employees to sell some stock. But they went a step further. Through the @DaffyGiving program, they gave employees the option to donate.

@figma @DaffyGiving Through our program at @DaffyGiving, @Figma made it possible for any employee to set aside shares for charity — seamlessly and tax-efficiently. They didn’t just enable liquidity. They enabled generosity. 🙌

@figma @DaffyGiving We believe this will become the new standard. There’s over $2.2 trillion locked up in private stock across venture-backed companies. It’s time to make it easy for employees to donate shares, not just sell them. 🔓

@figma @DaffyGiving You’d be surprised how simple a program like this can be with modern tech like ours—whether you run it once or annually. And the impact? Massive for philanthropy. 🥰 We can set up @DaffyGiving for a company in minutes.
