Thanks to the generosity of a number of donors, including the Audacious Project, we are now soliciting applications for our second round of funding. We expect to make at least $20 million of grants.

For the second round of Fast Grants, decisions will be made within 14 days of application submission. We will close application submission as soon as we’ve received sufficient high-quality applications that we’re confident that our funds can be well-spent. (With the first round, we received more than 4,000 applications within a few days.)

In making grant selections, we will prioritize work that is already underway (but lacking in funding) and that is likely to yield impact within 2020.

To apply, just head to fastgrants.org. (And if you know anyone conducting especially relevant and deserving work, please encourage them to do so.)

Thank you,

The Fast Grants Team
