Here are some simple links for those with interest in further researching possible grant ideas. Fundraising and donations will follow later, but we can still get some grant work in progress now. Some of these take quite a bit of time too so let's get working!

Awesome Chase thanks for this!


We should focus on big grants that are given to Non Profit Organizations in order to build the city and advancing technology and science.

Now that we can work on the grants part of our funding, I wonder what we can find for building a hotel or solar panels. Since these have been brought up as possible ways to fund the city, it would be nice to get (and an alternate way to search for) more grants.

hmm I am just curious how we will be furthering "design"?

The city design? Aren't we doing that in the conceptualization committee? Or what design are you talking about?

anyone know how to approach him? money.cnn.com/2010/06/15/news/newsmakers/Warren_Buffett_Pledge_Letter.fortune/

People like this could easily finance anything beyond our wildest dreams. The problem is, it's too good to be true. From what I know of him, Berkshire Hathaway stock, and the general intent explained in the article we can get nothing from him. The banquet for this "donation" seemed to be held last month and only to those that can pay extensive amounts of money for a seat (similar to a political party). I did (for the hell of it) leave a post on their mini forum at the bottom. Any publicity is good in my opinion. I don't expect to get a response from anyone high up in the monetary system, it would destroy their grip on reality. If anyone bothers to actually research it then good for them.

Someone posted this on the CityNet social page.
