Application form for grantees impacted by recent events
This form is intended for individuals or organizations whose funding is affected by the recent collapse of the FTX Future Fund (FTXFF), and who would like to request funding from Open Philanthropy to fill the resulting funding gap. This includes: - Grantees who never received some or all of their committed funds from FTXFF - Grantees who received funds, but want to set them aside to return to creditors or depositors* - Grantees whose funding was otherwise affected by recent events Please only complete this form if this description applies to you - this is not the right place to submit a new application. See here for a list of our ongoing funding opportunities: https://www.openphilanthropy.org/how-to-apply-for-funding/. Note also that in cases where the impacted entity is an organization with multiple employees, or a fellowship / other cohort-based program with one sponsoring organization, a representative of that entity should complete this form for the organization as a whole (rather than each of the employees / fellows filling it in separately). This form is designed to give us a quick sense of how time-sensitive your request is, so that we can prioritize accordingly – we’ll follow up to ask for additional information where relevant. *We think there could be a number of complex considerations here, and we don’t yet have a clear picture of how we’ll treat requests like these. We’d encourage people to apply if in doubt, but to avoid making assumptions about whether you’ll be funded (and about what our take will end up being on what the right thing to do is for your case). (Additionally, we’re unsure if there will be legal barriers to returning funds.) That said, we’ll do our best to respond to urgent requests quickly, so you have clarity as soon as possible.
