Classifying Awards or Gifts

What admins should know when classifying awards or gifts.

Grants and awards should be used to reflect "gifts". Gifts are given when there is no expectation of work to be performed on the project. However, we need an example of how this gift benefits the community. A URL to the award announcement or link to a discussion on your forums/discord is sufficient.
