Herb and Marion Sandler established the Sandler Foundation in 1991.
In 2006, prior to the closing of the sale of Golden West, the Sandlers contributed approximately $1.3 billion to the Foundation, which was the second largest American charitable contribution of 2006. The Sandlers committed to giving away their wealth to philanthropy and participated in the Giving Pledge initiative.
