QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Get answers to frequently asked questions. View the complete FAQ or email us
with questions.
Why did MacArthur decide to run a competition for a single $100 million grant?

Seven years ago, we set out to do something bold and different, launching the
first round of 100&Change. Now, we are launching the third cycle to help address
another of the world’s most critical issues.

By funding 100&Change at a level far above what is typical in philanthropy, we
seek to address problems and support solutions that are radically different in
scale, scope, and complexity. We believe $100 million can enable real progress
toward a meaningful and lasting solution to a critical problem of our time.



What is different about this round of the competition?

The first and second rounds of 100&Change offered opportunities for learning. An
evaluation of the selection process from the inaugural competition informed
changes to the selection process for the 2020 award recipient.

In the second round, we created an organizational readiness tool to help
potential applicants determine their readiness to compete in 100&Change. We
added a participatory review process, where applicants within the same domain
scored and provided feedback on each other’s proposals.

Proposals experienced a drop in the number of applications compared to the
inaugural competition, 755 in 2021 vs. 1,904 in 2017 due to the introduction of
the organizational readiness tool and a peer-to-peer review before the Wise Head
Panel review. We believe that the new organizational readiness tool helped
eliminate projects that were not a good fit for 100&Change, and we will continue
to use it.

For the third round of the competition, we revisited the application criteria to
align with MacArthur’s Just Imperative rooted in the value of Diversity, Equity,
and Inclusion.

As a result, we have added “just” as a criterion. In doing so, we sought to
frame the five criteria as a whole so that any applicant can see their project
reflected. We ask applicants to demonstrate a commitment to equity, inclusion,
and accessibility and provide a solution that benefits different populations
equitably. We believe there is no topic that is exempt or excluded from these
commitments, and so this criterion is not a barrier to entry.

These changes are intended to provide an enhanced level of feedback and ensure
that all applicants benefit at each stage of the competition.



What kind of problem do you want to solve this time?

We are open to ideas that identify a single problem and its proposed solution.
We welcome applications from around the world as well as from both nonprofit and
for-profit organizations (subject to the rules that govern private foundations).
We hope to inspire a wide range of applications that propose real, measurable
solutions to significant problems from any field or sector.



How do I know if my organization is a good fit?

Use the organizational readiness tool to find out. We created this tool to help
potential applicants determine their readiness to compete in 100&Change.



Who can apply?

Any organization or legal entity, except for government agencies and
individuals, can apply, subject to eligibility rules. All projects must further
a charitable purpose. A 501(c)4 organization is not eligible to participate as a
lead applicant. A 501(c)4 organization may participate in or collaborate on a
project advanced by an eligible entity such as a 501(c)3 organization provided
the following conditions are met: (i) the project must have a clearly
articulated charitable purpose, (ii) the eligible organization will have the
legal responsibility and authority for the use of and reporting on any grant
funds, and would exercise in fact and law direction, control and supervision of
the proposed project; (iii) none of the funds would be used by the 501(c)4
organization other than for the identified charitable purpose, and (iv) the
501(c)4 organization would not engage in any political activities, including
participating in or contributing to a political campaign on behalf of or in
opposition to any political candidate, or lobby any legislative entity as part
of or with respect to the project.

We welcome applicants of any size but have generally found that larger
organizations are more likely to effectively absorb and deploy very large
grants. While this is not true for all organizations, we encourage you to think
critically about whether your organization would be able to take on such a large
amount of capital over only a few years, particularly if a $100 million (USD)
grant would dramatically increase your annual operating budget.
