| تأسّس | 2007 (Sources give 2007 and 2008. Founder Angelo Robles is recorded as CEO from October 2008; a secondary directory gives a 2007 founding date. Could not be resolved from FOA's own pages, which do not state a founding year.) | 2010 (Founded by Warren Buffett, Melinda French Gates and Bill Gates in 2010; formally announced in June 2010 with 40 initial signatories, all in the United States. The Giving Pledge publishes no office address of its own; it is "a separate but affiliated community operationally hosted by the Gates Foundation", which is based in Seattle.) |

| العضو النموذجي | FOA's core tier targets families with a formal family office in place or being established, typically exceeding USD 100 million in assets under management with well-structured, diversified holdings. A second tier admits families on a trajectory toward that scale, and a third admits innovation companies. | Signatories are billionaires and billionaire couples who have publicly committed to give the majority of their wealth to philanthropy during their lifetime or in their wills. Most publish a signed letter explaining their reasoning. A separate Next Generation group, created in 2014, has more than 300 active members worldwide aged 18 to 75, drawn from the children and grandchildren of signatories; their identities are not disclosed because they did not personally sign the pledge. |

Signatories usually publish a letter on the Giving Pledge website when they join. |
