ProposalGrant
Closes January 1st, 2026
$4,000raised
$4,000minimum funding
$4,000funding goal
Fully funded and not currently accepting donations.

L is a machine learning researcher that has had their work published at NeurIPS and EMNLP. They were offered a fellowship to work on AI safety at Anthropic. However, as this does not meet the criteria for employment, Anthropic was unable to sponsor the prerequisite visa to work in the UK.

L was referred by an Anthropic employee. This support to L would help:

  1. Faciliate L's AI safety research as an Anthropic AI safety fellow

  2. Build L's career capital for future AI safety roles

This support would cover the following expenses:

  1. 440 USD for the visa application fee

  2. 95 USD for the appointment fee

  3. 2150 USD for the health surcharge payment

  4. 1315 USD for the visa processing fee

Totaling to 4000 USD.

This grant is high leverage, as L's pay is funded by Anthropic.
