The Atlassian Foundation Collective Action Open Call offers up to 1,000,000 US dollars per partnership over two years from a total pool of 8,000,000 US dollars, with a deadline of 30 October 2026 at 11:59 pm AEDT.
The call funds collective action initiatives in education at any level and workforce development, with an explicit emphasis on helping education adapt so that emerging technology closes rather than widens gaps for disadvantaged learners, alongside direct relief of poverty or disadvantage for specified beneficiary groups.
The programme's defining requirement is structural rather than topical: the foundation is funding multiple players working together through shared goals, shared delivery and shared learning, so a single organisation with a good AI-and-education project is not what this call is looking for.
The lead applicant must be a registered nonprofit, but other collective partners may come from any sector including government, business and academia, and applications are accepted globally with the exception of applicants from internationally sanctioned countries. The award is capped at 25 percent of the lead organisation's operating budget, which binds the request for most applicants more tightly than the headline ceiling.
Funded work begins May or June 2027 and runs two years. Beyond cash, selected partnerships receive free access to Atlassian teamwork tools and participate in a peer learning cohort, and the budget must include travel for at least one representative to the United States or Australia in 2027 or 2028.
Applicants must pass the foundation's eligibility checklist, where any single no answer is disqualifying, so the checklist should be worked through before any proposal writing begins. Applications are submitted through the foundation's Goodstack nomination portal.

Applications are accepted globally, with applicants from internationally sanctioned countries ineligible. Every applicant must pass the foundation's published eligibility checklist and any single no answer disqualifies, so working through that checklist is the first task rather than a final formality. The award is capped at 25 percent of the lead organisation's operating budget, which is a hard arithmetic limit: requesting the full 1,000,000 US dollars requires a lead organisation with an operating budget of at least 4,000,000 dollars, and coalitions led by small nonprofits should consider whether a larger member should take the lead role. Substantively, the collective action requirement is the real filter. The foundation is funding multiple players working together through shared goals, delivery and learning, which means the proposal must demonstrate an existing or credible coalition with defined roles, joint delivery mechanisms and shared measurement, not a lead organisation with letters of support. Eligible focus areas are education at any level, workforce development, helping education adapt so emerging technology closes gaps for disadvantaged learners, direct relief of poverty or disadvantage for specific beneficiary groups, and collective action initiatives; AI-related proposals fit most naturally under the emerging-technology framing where the equity dimension is central rather than incidental. Two practical requirements affect eligibility in substance: the budget must cover travel for at least one representative to the United States or Australia in 2027 or 2028, and funded work does not begin until May or June 2027 and runs for two years, so coalitions must be able to sustain commitment through a long lead time. Applications are submitted via the foundation's Goodstack grant programme portal by 30 October 2026 at 11:59 pm AEDT. Confirm the full requirements in the official notice before applying.
The current listing shows the maximum is 1,000,000 US dollars per partnership over two years, capped at 25 percent of the lead organisation's operating budget, drawn from a total pool of 8,000,000 US dollars. No floor is published, so amount_min is recorded as 1,000,000 alongside amount_max to reflect the published ceiling. The 25 percent rule is the constraint most applicants will hit first and it is arithmetic, not discretionary: to request the full million the lead nonprofit needs an annual operating budget of at least 4,000,000 US dollars, and a lead organisation with a 1,000,000 dollar budget can request at most 250,000 across two years. Smaller organisations with strong collective models should therefore consider which coalition member should hold the lead applicant role, since that choice sets the ceiling. With roughly 8 million dollars available and awards up to 1 million, the expected cohort is small, in the range of eight to twenty partnerships, and global competition for that is severe. Two cost items are easy to miss. The budget must cover travel for at least one representative to the United States or Australia in 2027 or 2028, a mandatory line rather than an optional benefit, which for applicants in low-income countries is a non-trivial amount including visa costs. Second, collective action structures carry real coordination overhead - partner convening, shared measurement, data infrastructure and governance - and the foundation is explicitly funding multiple players working together through shared goals, delivery and learning, so a budget that shows no coordination cost will read as naive about the model being funded. Funded work begins May or June 2027 over a two-year period, so the lag between the 30 October 2026 deadline and first disbursement is roughly seven months and applicants must be able to hold the coalition together through it. Verify award ceilings, matching requirements, and allowable costs in the official notice.

The OpenAI Foundation's People-First AI Fund provides unrestricted grants to U.S.-based nonprofit and community organizations to strengthen civil society in the age of AI. The fund focuses on three areas: Community Support Services, Community Arts & Cultural Organizations, and Community Journalism & Media. Its inaugural round delivered approximately $40.5 million in unrestricted grants to 208 nonprofits across the United States, with an additional $9.5 million in board-directed grants, for a $50 million total commitment. Grants are unrestricted, allowing recipients to apply funds where they are most needed. Future rounds are anticipated.
The GitLab Foundation's AI for Economic Opportunity Fund, run in partnership with OpenAI, awards demonstration grants to nonprofits using AI to measurably improve income growth and economic mobility for low-income populations worldwide. Selected organizations receive $250,000 in catalytic funding to prototype and demonstrate progress, six months of cohort-based technical support from OpenAI engineers and advisors, API credits, mentorship, and eligibility for scaling grants from partner philanthropies. The latest $4 million round funded 16 U.S.-based nonprofits, with the demonstration phase running February through August 2026 and culminating in a Demo Day at OpenAI's San Francisco headquarters. The foundation has stated that applications for future funding opportunities will open in summer 2026.
The GitLab Foundation's AI for Economic Opportunity Fund backs early-stage, high-conviction projects that use artificial intelligence to raise incomes and expand economic mobility, and it is co-funded by OpenAI together with the Annie E. Casey Foundation and Ballmer Group. Each grantee receives 250,000 US dollars in catalytic demonstration funding plus six months of engineering support from OpenAI engineers, API credits, cohort-based technical advising, peer learning and eligibility for follow-on scaling capital. The combination of money and embedded engineering capacity is what makes this fund distinctive: most AI philanthropy gives non-profits either cash or credits, and very few give them access to engineers who have built production systems at a frontier lab. Priority areas are service delivery costs, agent interoperability, personalised learning, skills validation and labour market intelligence, which together describe a coherent thesis that the binding constraint on economic mobility programmes is the unit cost and personalisation of human-delivered services. The fund supports US-based non-profits, though the projects themselves may be implemented globally. Competition is severe and getting more so: the March 2026 cohort of 16 organisations, the largest since launch, was selected from more than 800 applications, and the foundation has now deployed more than 10,000,000 US dollars across more than 50 organisations since 2023. Application rounds are announced periodically rather than on a fixed annual calendar.
