July 2018: EA Meta Fund grants
Effective Altruism Funds, 2018
Abstract
In July 2018, grants totaling $526,000 were disbursed to five organizations involved in the effective altruism movement, from the EA Meta Fund (later renamed to the Effective Altruism Community Fund) and Long-term Future Fund. The grants were intended to help these organizations enhance the productivity of their employees, by providing funding for time-saving measures or electronic upgrades. The allocation of funds among organizations was roughly proportional to the number of staff members, with an emphasis on long-term research projects. – AI-generated abstract.
