The key objection I always have to starting new charities, as Charity Entrepreneurship used to focus on is that I feel is money usually not the bottleneck? I mean, we already have a ton of amazing ideas of how to use more funds, and if we found new ones, it may be very hard to reduce the uncertainty sufficiently to be able to make productive decisions. What do you think Ambitious Impact ?
A new organization can often compete for dollars that weren’t previously available to an EA org—such as government or non-EA foundation grants that are only open to certain subject areas.

That is actually a good point, thanks Jason.
