âCharitable purposeâ can be pretty broad under U.S. law, for instance, and could probably encompass such funding. Or do you mean that funders are not interested in it?
I think a charity that only existed to do this would have trouble getting charitable status; e.g. I think the Berkeley REACH wasnât able to get approved as a nonprofit because it didnât have a clear enough benefit to society.
There are some projects like this that charities can fund as part of a wider portfolio, e.g. the shorter fellowships Ollie points to, or career development grants. But â3 years of explore whatever seems best to youâ sounds like a stretch to me.
One barrier is that nonprofits/âcharities typically canât fund this sort of thing.
