Apply for Grants To Fund Open Source Work Q&A

When I tell people about grants they could get to help fund work on open source software projects, sometimes they are surprised because they didn't know such grants existed. I share: * sample foundations and funders (such as [OpenHumans](https://www.openhumans.org/grants/), the [Chan Zuckerberg Initiative](https://chanzuckerberg.com/eoss/), [NLNet](https://nlnet.nl/), and [Comcast](https://innovationfund.comcast.com/)) who want to fund open source software projects, and how much they're paying out * a quick case study on how the Python Software Foundation got funding from Open Tech Fund to [improve security, accessibility, and localization for PyPI](https://wiki.python.org/psf/PackagingWG#Warehouse:_OTF_grant) * key steps in figuring out a good project idea, budgeting, hiring, and submitting * how your volunteer groups can follow the lead of the new [Project Funding Working Group](https://wiki.python.org/psf/ProjectFundingWG) at the PSF
