Despite my best efforts (and an amazing director candidate, and a great list of volunteers), this project suffered from the FTX explosion and an understandable lack of buy-in for an org with maximally broad responsibilities, unpredictable time-to-payoff, and a largeish discretionary fund. As a result, we shuttered without spending any money. Two successor orgs, one using our funding and focussed on bio, are in the pipeline though.
I’ll be in touch if either of the new orgs want to contact you as a volunteer.

Sorry to hear that this one didn’t work out! Kudos for staying motivated and continuing with other initiatives.
