Last checked: 4/9/2026

The source confirms the grant name, amount ($12,420), grantee (Brian Tan), and funder (Manifund). However, the claimed date is 2023-08-20, but the source provides no explicit grant date. The source is a Wayback Machine archive dated 2025-12-09, showing the project as 'Complete', but the original grant date is not stated in the provided excerpt. The amount matches exactly ($12,420), and all other key fields are confirmed. The date cannot be verified from this source material.
