I’ve been thinking for a while about how to start a foundation that targets sort of the “midcap” of projects that need support. Raise a bunch of money, get an endowment going, and regularly fund medium size/medium usefulness projects both in a continuous way and on a grant-for-feature/limited-project way. Trying to focus on quality so most of the money goes towards people who actually get things done (as opposed to funding awareness, funding fundraising, and misc “not doing things” efforts) not that none of that overhead stuff would get done, but only a quite small portion.
