The Carmack Collective is excited to announce our 2023 Core Grantees. This $515,000 round of grants is our first since launching in January 2023. Our Core Grants program consists of Exploratory Grants and Multi-Year Grants.

As we complete this first round of grantmaking and reflect on our approach, it is becoming clearer to us what our role is as a funder and we will shift our approach going forward.

I’m writing this in December of 2022, just as The Carmack Collective is about to launch. To best explain the genesis of this project and what we hope to accomplish, I want to first tell you a bit about myself.
