Grant: Forethought (Manifund → Amrit Sidhu-Brar)

Verdictcontradicted95%
1 check · 4/9/2026

The record claims a grant of $365,270 dated 2025-12-16 from Manifund to Amrit Sidhu-Brar. However, the source shows this is a Manifund crowdfunding campaign (not a direct grant from Manifund as funder), with $315,250 raised as of January 5, 2026. Neel Nanda's $200,000 offer is visible in the comments section dated 18 days prior (approximately December 18, 2025). The claimed amount of $365,270 does not match any single identifiable grant in the source. The source structure indicates this is a fundraising campaign where individuals make pledges, not a direct grant from 'Manifund' as an institutional funder to Amrit Sidhu-Brar. The grantee field is also problematic—Amrit Sidhu-Brar is listed as one of the project leads for Forethought, but the grant would be to Forethought as an organization, not to an individual.
