1 check · 4/9/2026

The record claims an amount of $656 with a date of 2024-08-29. The source text shows '$656 raised' on the Manifund project page, which aligns with the claimed amount. However, the source also contains a final report from November 2024 showing the actual project expenditure was $61,004.38. The $656 appears to represent only a portion of matched donations collected on Manifund (the project sought $25,000 in additional funding beyond the Condor Initiative's $50,000 commitment, totaling ~$70,000 budget). The record's amount of $656 is confirmed as accurate for the matched donations specifically, but this is only a partial representation of the total grant/funding for the project. The date 2024-08-29 cannot be verified from the source text, which only shows 'Nov 2024' for the final report and archive dates of 2025-11-19.
