Grant: Fund a Fellow for the Cooperative AI Research Fellowship! (Manifund → Leo Hyams)
The record claims the grant amount is $2,530, and the source confirms this exact figure appears on the Manifund page as the amount 'raised' so far. However, this is a fundraising campaign where $2,530 is the current donations received, not the total grant amount being awarded. The record's framing of 'amount: 2530' is ambiguous—it could mean the grant size or the funds raised. The source shows this is actually funds raised toward a much larger $225,500 goal. The name, grantee (Leo Hyams), and funder (Manifund) are all confirmed. The date cannot be verified from the source text provided (the Wayback Machine capture date is 2026-01-23, but the application deadline mentioned is October 1, 2025, which doesn't match the claimed date of 2025-09-30). The $2,530 figure is confirmed but represents donations raised, not a complete grant award amount.
