A refreshingly simple data-driven game engine built in Rust. Free and Open Source Forever! 

Our mission is to promote, protect, and advance the free and open source [Bevy Engine](https://bevy.org/) and related open source projects. We coordinate and promote its continued maintenance and development, educate and train members of the general public in its usage, and conduct research and development to advance the state of the art of creating real-time applications and simulations.

In short: **we exist to develop Bevy and teach people how to use it!**

Bevy will always be free and open-source, but it isn't free to make! Because Bevy is free, we rely on the generosity of the Bevy community to fund our efforts. If you are a happy user of Bevy or you believe in our mission, please consider donating!

**Bevy Foundation** currently uses donations in the following ways:

- **Hiring Maintainers:** Maintainers are technical experts that facilitate the development of Bevy by reviewing, adjusting, and merging changes from the Bevy community, reviewing and developing designs, and choosing project direction. They are technical experts that contribute their own changes to Bevy, as well as social experts that ensure the Bevy community is a pleasant and effective place to work. Maintainers serve as public representatives of the project. Our bar for maintainership is high. See our [Bevy Organization](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/blob/main/docs/the_bevy_organization.md#maintainer) document for details.
- **Infrastructure:** The foundation will pay present and future hosting costs, such as hosting the Bevy website and continuous integration (CI) to validate our code. Currently these costs are low, but we expect them to increase over time.
- **Operational Costs:** Keeping a nonprofit organization compliant and operational takes time and money. These costs are currently very low, but we expect them to increase over time as we grow. Our goal is to minimize these costs as much as possible as our goal is to maximize the amount we spend on actually building Bevy and accomplishing our mission.

CETI is a nonprofit org applying advanced machine learning and gentle robotics to listen to and translate whale communication. 

Founded in 2020 as a TED Audacious Project, the organization’s science team is made up of the world's leading artificial intelligence and natural language processing experts, marine biologists, cryptographers, linguists, roboticists and underwater acousticians. CETI’s research is taking place off of the island of Dominica in the Caribbean.

In the late 1960s, scientists, including Dr. Roger Payne, a principal advisor of CETI, discovered that whales sing to one another. His recordings, Songs of the Humpback Whale, sparked the “Save the Whales” movement, one of the most successful conservation initiatives in history. The campaign eventually led to the Marine Mammal Protection Act that marked the end of large-scale whaling and saved several whale populations from extinction. 

All this by just hearing the sounds of whales. Imagine what would happen if we could understand them?

WHY WHALES 
Sperm whales specifically share traits strikingly similar to humans. They live in matriarchal and multicultural societies and share dialects and strong multigenerational family bonds. Sperm whales have the largest brains of any species and have higher-level functions such as conscious thought and future planning, as well as speech and feelings of compassion, love, suffering and intuition. Their vocalizations, among the loudest animal sounds on the planet, have a Morse code-like structure that shares the hallmarks of a highly-evolved language. Our understanding of these animals and their dialects is still in its infancy. Only in the last fifteen years have we begun to learn how some of their vocalizations are used for communication.  
WHAT CETI IS DOING
CETI is:
-Developing non-invasive robotics to listen to a population of whales in the Caribbean and put their sounds into context.
-Deploying a “Core Whale Listening System,” an innovative hydrophone array, underwater robotic gliders, custom bioinspired whale tags and other technology to gently study the whales.
-Building on substantial data on the whales’ sounds, social lives, and behavior already obtained by the Dominica Sperm Whale Project. 
-Creating a bespoke, big-data pipeline to examine the recorded data and decode it using advanced machine learning, natural language processing and data science.
-Publishing a series of academic papers beginning with the CETI roadmap.
-Collaborating with the National Geographic Society, including their Exploration Technology Lab, and amplifying the project across National Geographic’s storytelling and education channels.
-Implementing community-based programs like the Dominica Marine Conservation Fellowship, a community-based 10-month multi- module training program for young Dominicans interested in marine science, that was developed in partnership with National Geographic.
-Launching various communications projects to tell CETI’s story including a public interface for the citizen science community, resources for educators and children and arts programs.

IMPACT
Now, for the first time in history, it’s possible to use artificial intelligence to identify and interpret deep structure within animal communication. Using these technologies, CETI is building on the legacy of the “Save the Whales” movement with the goal of having an impact by contributing the following:
Interspecies Communication - A new data set of unprecedented size to the rapidly expanding field of interspecies communication and a roadmap of how humans could translate the communication of any other species
Marine Biology - A substantive contribution to the field of whale research within marine biology that opens gateways for future research initiatives. 
Policy - New information about whales that can bolster policy efforts to protect marine mammals and ocean habitats. Policy advances in this area are crucial as six out of the 13 “great” whale species (the largest whales) are still endangered (World Wildlife Federation). To ensure impact in this area, CETI plans to build out policy campaigns and initiatives. 
Perspective - It is widely endorsed that connectivity with nature can improve mental health. By sharing its journey and findings with the public, CETI hopes to contribute to a feeling of increased wonder and connectedness to whales and the ocean that can inspire action. CETI will build out arts and childrens’ initiatives in support of this impact goal.
Conservation - CETI’s first phase of research is taking place in Dominica in the Caribbean, a region that is one of the world’s greatest centers of diversity. By carrying out its research in partnership with local stakeholders, CETI hopes to contribute to regionally-led research and conservation efforts.

HOW CETI IS SUPPORTING DOMINICA
-CETI’s capacity-building initiative, Dominica Marine Conservation Fellowship is a 10-month, nine module training program for young Dominicans interested in marine science) in partnership with National Geographic.  The program has three 2022/2023 fellows and partnerships with the Dominica National Youth Council, Dominica State College and Dominica’s Ministry of Education. The program’s curriculum (co-created with National Geographic) includes modules on marine science, scientific research/techniques, water and vessel skills and storytelling and leadership among other topics.
-All research and findings by CETI in Dominica are all open-source and will be available for Dominica. The organization’s sailing research vessel (CETI-1), a Rigid Inflatable Boat (CETI-2) and Dominican made boat (CETI-3) are in operation in Dominican waters; these boats along with other CETI equipment will be donated to the local entity at the completion of the project.
-A temporary field station has been established in Dominica and has the capacity to host 10-12 researchers, fellows and students. In the long-term, CETI plans to build a permanent field station in Dominica 
-In 2023, CETI will continue local engagement and presentations with primary and secondary schools, development of video content for use in classrooms, collaborations with local artists and collaborations with local stakeholders such as marine and dive operators, civil society organizations and schools.

SUPPORT OUR REGENERATIVE UTOPIA
#ECOLOGY #ART #COMMUNITY #RESEARCH #SCIENCE #BIODIVERSITY #REGENATE #

Fey Commons is a nonprofit association experimenting with new ways of living, creating, and cooperating with the living world. At the crossroads of art, ecology, and research, we develop concrete projects focused on ecological regeneration, territorial research-action, and collective life, supported by an engaged community.**** 

Who we are

Fey Commons is a community and a social organism in constant evolution. It emerged from the meeting of *Les Amies du Feÿ* and *Fey Arts*, extending several years of experimentation around the living world, artistic creation, and collective practices.

We are not only an association. We are a field of experimentation where art, ecology, and research intersect to explore new forms of commons. We learn by doing, progress through testing and adjustment, and build from human relationships and our connection to the living world.

Fey Commons is for those who want to explore other ways of inhabiting the world, together and in relationship with nature.

Our concrete actions

**The agroforestry nursery**
We develop an agroforestry nursery producing young trees and shrubs adapted to the local territory. This nursery is the first concrete step toward a broader project of landscape regeneration, agroforestry, and biodiversity restoration.

**Ecological regeneration and applied ecology**
We organize participatory planting projects, ecological restoration initiatives, hands-on workshops, and public awareness activities focused on soils, water, trees, and biodiversity. We also collaborate with partners such as the LPO to support wildlife and bird protection initiatives.

**Research-action and territorial dynamics**
Fey Commons is engaged in research-action projects and territorial cooperation initiatives such as the Convergence of Possibles and Territoire Vivant Yonne. These projects aim to strengthen local cooperation, care for both human and non-human ecosystems, and experiment with new forms of collective organization, including work around the rights of nature.

**The Regen House**
The Regen House is the living heart of Fey Commons. It is a space for collective living, meetings, and experimentation that hosts residents, volunteers, artists, researchers, and project leaders. It supports collective life, public events, workshops, and gatherings such as the Rencontres Vivantes, creating the human infrastructure necessary for all other projects.

Why support Fey Commons

Your support helps us develop and sustain concrete, field-based projects that combine ecological regeneration, collective research, and cooperation. Donations directly contribute to maintaining the nursery, organizing ecological actions, supporting research-action initiatives, and keeping the Regen House active as a space for learning, dialogue, and collective experimentation.

Funds support

***What particular initiatives will these funds support?***

The funds will directly support the core activities of Fey Commons, with a strong focus on concrete, on-the-ground actions.

They will be used to develop and maintain the agroforestry nursery, including the production of young trees and shrubs adapted to the local territory, the organization of planting projects, and the coordination of volunteers and partners involved in reforestation and landscape regeneration.

The funds will also support ecological restoration actions such as participatory planting projects, biodiversity protection initiatives, soil and water regeneration workshops, and collaborations with partners like the LPO for wildlife and bird protection.

In addition, contributions will help sustain the Regen House as a place for collective living, meetings, and events. This includes hosting residents, organizing workshops and public gatherings such as the Rencontres Vivantes, and creating spaces for dialogue, learning, and cooperation.

Finally, the funds will support research-action and territorial initiatives, including participation in cooperative networks, documentation of experiments, and the development of projects related to territorial regeneration and the rights of nature.

Impact

**How will or do you measure and determine the impact of your efforts?**

We assess our impact through a combination of qualitative and quantitative indicators, adapted to the nature of our work.

On the ecological level, we track measurable outcomes such as the number and diversity of trees produced and planted, habitat restoration efforts, biodiversity indicators including bird presence and nesting, and improvements in soil and landscape resilience over time.

On the social and collective level, we evaluate participation in workshops, planting projects, residencies, and events, as well as the durability of partnerships and the capacity of the community to self-organize and cooperate over time.

For research-action and territorial projects, impact is assessed through the emergence of new collaborations, the dissemination or replication of practices in other contexts, and the production of shared documentation, methodologies, and learning resources.

Beyond metrics, we also pay close attention to qualitative signals such as trust-building, long-term engagement, and meaningful shifts in how people relate to the living world and to one another.

Innovate Animal Ag facilitates the development and adoption of new technologies that improve animal health and welfare


Innovate Animal Ag is a 501(c)3 nonprofit think tank that promotes technology as a practical way to solve the biggest challenges in farmed animal welfare. We conduct and publish research on cutting edge technologies in animal agriculture that improve farmed animal welfare and also offer concrete benefits to farmers. We then facilitate the adoption of these technologies through directly working with agricultural producers that are interested in better meeting the demands of the modern consumer.

Technology is powerful because it eliminates tradeoffs - it can allow us to continually improve the lives that animals live on farm, while protecting the livelihoods of farmers and maintaining the abundance of our food system.

Our Philosophy:
The last few decades of industrialization in animal agriculture have led to an unprecedented period of abundance in our food system. More people than ever have access to a practically unlimited supply of affordable, safe, and nutritious animal protein.

Yet this abundance hasn’t come without costs. Most people in our society care about the welfare of animals, and polls consistently show that Americans want animals on farms to be handled respectfully and responsibly. Yet when informed of practices that are commonplace on industrial farms, a vast majority of people express discomfort. Peoples’ assumptions and expectations around animal welfare are often disappointed by the realities of how animal agriculture currently works.

As a result, our society has had to start grappling with how to navigate the tradeoff between maintaining a safe, affordable, nutritious supply of animal protein, and maintaining the respect and care that everyone believes animals deserve. Heated debates have started within businesses, in our government, and in the media. With vociferous advocates on both sides, the conversation has become polarized, being too often framed as activists versus farmers, welfare versus affordability. 

We believe that the best solution is not to choose either animal welfare or an abundant food supply, but to leverage technology to have both.

The Lessons of Climate Tech:
The challenge of climate change is remarkably similar to the challenge of animal welfare. To use the language of economists, both are unpriced externalities: unplanned consequences of industrialization whose costs are not directly paid by producers or consumers, and hence are not inherently incentivized to be improved. No one wants the climate to change, yet it happens anyways. Similarly, no one wants a farm animal to be treated poorly, yet it happens anyways.

When it comes to climate change, the most promising practical solutions are technologies like solar panels, electric vehicles, improved batteries, and carbon capture. These technologies are powerful because they eliminate tradeoffs - they allow us to maintain the prosperity brought about by economic growth, while simultaneously mitigating the harms of climate change. 

Despite the similarities with the climate space, technology is an under discussed and underinvested in as a solution to animal welfare. Information is often difficult to impossible to find, and few champions actively push solutions forward. 

Our mission is to change this. Instead of continuing to grapple with how much we as individual consumers or business are willing to personally sacrifice for animal welfare, we can use technology to eliminate the tradeoff. By expanding what’s possible, technology allows us to preserve the abundance brought about by industrialized animal agriculture, while simultaneously bringing animal welfare in line with the expectations and demands of the modern consumer. 

Our Work:
Innovate Animal Ag was founded with the goal of helping companies develop and commercialize technologies that help meet the expectations and demands of the modern consumer around animal welfare. We do this by:
- Promoting technology as a practical solution to animal welfare
- Conducting research on cutting edge, science-backed, technologies in animal agriculture, then creating resources for businesses, policymakers, and the media
- Directly supporting the companies developing and implementing the most promising technologies, such as in-ovo sexing

**Our Vision**
We imagine a future where curiosity unites us, exploration broadens our understanding, and long-term thinking shapes a collective path of discovery, connection, and possibility.

**Why Accelerator Media?**
In today’s media landscape, content is often designed to provoke quick reactions, amplify division, and reward short-term attention. This constant cycle of distraction is eroding our ability to think critically, reflect deeply, and engage with the complex issues shaping our shared future. There is a growing need for media that encourages curiosity, imagination, and long-term thinking—especially in an increasingly divided world.

Accelerator Media exists to meet this need. We produce thoughtful, curiosity-driven content that invites reflection over reaction and exploration over blame. Through our growing portfolio of original podcasts, we bring together leading voices in science, technology, and the humanities from around the world—fostering global dialogue, and inspiring audiences of all ages to think more deeply about our shared future. With support, we can expand our reach, elevate production quality, and make meaningful media more accessible to those seeking substance and connection in an increasingly fragmented world.

**Our Work**
Accelerator Media is building a dynamic portfolio of media initiatives designed to inform, inspire, and empower curious minds to become world-changers. Our core projects include:

●      [**Curiosity Entangled**](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAmp64147-7jBCBttxtlQ1HeE2Nf2pVc6)[ ](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAmp64147-7jBCBttxtlQ1HeE2Nf2pVc6)– *A* unique, non-hosted podcast bringing together visionaries from different disciplines for conversations driven by mutual curiosity. At the heart of our work, *Curiosity Entangled* exemplifies our mission by weaving interdisciplinary insights into a tapestry of discovery. These dialogues reveal unexpected connections, spark fresh ideas, and offer bold answers to humanity’s toughest questions.

●      [**Ignition Sequence**](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAmp64147-7gQX6xSAT9wArswbB7Gdjen) – A video podcast exploring the big ideas shaping science, technology, culture, and the humanities, and how they shape the future.

●      [**Go! For Launch**](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAmp64147-7iU0d0Wxa145AioTck3xPf1) – A podcast guiding young adults toward meaningful STEM careers, blending inspiration with practical insights from global experts and educators.

●      **Future Documentary Projects** – High-quality documentaries and cinematic explorations—around the world and beyond—that take deep dives into pressing questions about humanity’s future, including a planned docuseries evolving from *Curiosity Entangled*.

**Our Impact**
Accelerator Media launched its flagship podcasts, Ignition Sequence and Go! For Launch, to immediate success, garnering over 670,000 YouTube views and 1,500 subscribers in just the first ten weeks, demonstrating significant public interest. This rapid growth, driven entirely by volunteer efforts, validates the demand for content that explores profound questions and career paths in science, technology, and culture, and signals our potential for even greater impact as we expand.

**Primary Platforms**
Currently, Accelerator Media distributes content primarily through YouTube and leading podcast platforms like Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Google Podcasts. Our ambitious growth strategy includes future collaborations and distribution through major platforms such as PBS, Netflix, or Amazon Prime, especially for our documentary-focused project, Curiosity Entangled.

**The Need for Support**
At Accelerator Media, **we believe that knowledge drives the future**—shaping the ideas, innovations, and collective vision that will define humanity’s path forward. To produce this transformative content at scale, we need the financial resources to grow our team, enhance production quality, and expand our reach.

To date, all of our work has been accomplished by a dedicated volunteer team operating with minimal funding. This early momentum is a testament to the strength of our mission and the public demand for thoughtful, future-focused media. Now, to meet that demand and ensure long-term impact, we must transition from a volunteer-led effort to a fully supported organization with the capacity to grow.

With a fundraising goal of $1.5M, we aim to:

The AI Futures Project is a nonprofit research organization working to research and understand the trajectory of AI development

The **AI Futures Project** is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit research organization. We have developed a scenario forecast detailing the development of artificial general intelligence (AGI) and artificial superintelligence (ASI). Based on our research, we’ve come to believe that we might cross the thresholds to AGI and ASI within just a few years—and that plausible outcomes include unprecedented concentration of power, global catastrophe, or progress and flourishing.

The world is not ready for such a radical transformation. We hope to help policymakers, AI companies, AI entrepreneurs, AI safety researchers, and the general public to make sense of what’s coming, so they can take action and steer us in a better direction. In addition to our scenario forecast, we are developing [policy recommendations](https://time.com/collection/time100-voices/7086285/ai-transparency-measures/) and tabletop exercises (wargames) for decisionmakers.

Abortion Freedom Fund supports accessible, affordable, evidence-based abortion pills by mail for all. 

Abortion Freedom Fund is a national fund focusing on funding abortion pills by mail.

Abortion Freedom Fund supports accessible, affordable, evidence-based abortion pills by mail for all. Our mission is to help pregnant people take control of their healthcare and futures by dismantling medicalized control of abortion and encouraging a world where abortion pills are over the counter.

We simplify access to care for patients by funding virtual abortion providers and clinics, individuals accessing telehealth abortions, and reimbursing local funds for telehealth abortion care, allowing them to focus their resources on people seeking procedural abortions in their communities.

In addition to direct funding, we partner with organizations doing research and other activism to increase access to abortions.

Our core aims are:
-Assisting people who are pregnant to take control of their health care and futures
-Dismantling medicalized control of abortion and encouraging a world where abortion pills are over the counter
-Advocating for the full continuum of abortion care from self managed to clinician supported
-Breaking down the stereotype that abortion pills are dangerous

We aim to advance the mental wellbeing of our South Asian community.

In 2021, during their freshman year of college, our founders Ravi Parekh and Aaron Pandian suffered the loss of their close friend and roommate, Farhan, in a tragic murder-suicide where he took the lives of himself and his family. 

Farhan was struggling with a variety of inadequately treated mental illnesses. However, like so many members of the South Asian-American community, his parents simply lacked the tools, resources, and education necessary for providing him the care he needed.

They recognized that, as an immigrant South Asian family, they lacked the tools, resources, and education necessary for providing Farhan the care he needed. The tragedy of Farhan and his family revealed that there are many mental health issues unique to the cultural characteristics of South Asians. Understanding that these environmental factors and structural barriers to effective care created the situation which led to this tragedy, we theorized a youth-led grass-roots advocacy and education initiative that equips South Asian youth and other interested parties with access to tools and resources to understand, process, and empower.

Grass-roots efforts are often inspired by lived experiences. Our passion and drive to bridge the gaps in mental health care for South Asian individuals stem from our lived experiences.

Knowledge is empowering, and part of understanding mental health is to both learn and express empathy for those affected who are unable to receive effective care. To learn not to fear mental illness as a sibling, parent, friend, significant other, or affected individual and employ newly acquired tools that work to connect with the resources they need. 

MHISA embodies these ideals and provides us an outlet to engage those around us with a shared goal: to enable South Asians struggling with mental illness to lead better and healthful lives.

The Prison Mathematics Project supports incarcerated individuals pursue self-studies in the field of mathematics.

The Prison Mathematics Project (PMP) brings math into prison in three different ways. 

1. Our one-on-one mentorship program pairs incarcerated individuals with a mathematical mentor. Our mentors are professors, post-docs, PhD students, undergraduates, math teachers, and people working in industry who have a passion for math. Once paired, the mentorship works to reach the educational goals of the incarcerated participant. This is done through letters, e-messaging, and phone calls when available. Deep relationships are formed that continue post-release and are a great way to support the difficult transition back to the outside world. 
2. Math circles in prison are a great way to build a community around math. Local mathematicians go into the prison to lead 1-2 hour events that work on problems solving and analytical thinking skills. Some of the topics explored in these events are combinatorics, number theory, graph theory, etc.  We have done events in Washington, Michigan, North Dakota, and we have upcoming events planned in New Jersey, Calgary, and Toronto. 
3. The PMP Console is a coding app that goes on inmates' tablets. It has a text editor, complier, and courses with exercises and explanations. It has recently been approved for a pilot program at the biggest prison in Australia. Giving people more technical skills and education will lead to better post-release employment and will help lower the recidivism rate.
