SIAP, searched.
A Breakdown of the donations:
- $1 million to the Equal Justice Initiative, a nonprofit focused on confronting past injustices, including America’s history of lynchings and unequal treatment of people of color;
- $5 million to the Center for Policing Equity to build a national database that tracks police departments’ use of force and traffic stops;
- $1 million to Impact Justice, an organization that focuses on keeping juveniles out of the criminal-justice system; and
- $1.5 million to Measures for Justice to build a web system to show how local municipalities treat people based on gender, color, age, etc.
This is from "The Root". This part of the article made me laugh:

Of course, the company didn’t phrase it that way because it would have to spend another $11 million cleaning up all the mess from the white people’s heads that exploded.

The money would have made a much bigger difference if they just gave it directly to some families.

I agree. The two middle ones can be used for everyone and I don't mind trying to keep youth out of trouble and holding the police accountable to the extent that it does not turn into a witch hunt of our police officers.

I wonder how much of the money will go to educate thugs like the 4 goons who tortured that white kid in Chicago?
Btw, where did that story go?

I agree. Spend it how you want, but these things are always for PR. They don't really give a shite about any of that.

It's Google, they don't have to care. People aren't going to stop using the internet.

Fortunately I don't have to pay to Google search so none of my (hard earned 
) $ will go to it.

It is going to the families of the people that work for the NGO's.

"Racial injustice" is like poverty and many other things in that if you want to fight it, focus on education.
Education is the way out of many hard and difficult times and it starts at HOME

It ultimately begins with individual and family accountability, once you have people understand they are responsible for themselves and their children, the other stuff falls into line.
So you are correct but it won't matter how much money you throw at education without accountability first.

Really? These advocacy groups create a mindset within certain groups who lack sound reasoning and who are easily manipulated. This money will continue to fuel the false narratives which have driven much of the civil disobedience linked to racial injustice operatives. That in turn indirectly, and some times directly led to the violence which occurred the past few years ,especially against police officers.
