The billionaire's announcement follows similar pledges by rivals including Anthropic.
It wasn't immediately clear how the shares would be distributed, who would receive them and when the distribution might start.
Shares in SpaceX closed at $146.03 Friday, and according to the latest data from the U.S. Census Bureau there are approximately 73 million children under the age of 18 living in the U.S. That could equate to Musk giving away roughly $10 billion in stock.
