EF Ecosystem Support Program(ESP)

The ESP provides funding to people who contribute to improving Ethereum. The aim is to provide to these contributors the financial resources they would need to build for Ethereum's success; and to ensure these projects remain free and available to everyone.

They give funding to work relating to building tools, infrastructure, research, community resources, and other public goods. So whether you are a researcher, designer, developer, or community manager, you can apply.
You can apply either for:
Small grants: mainly for early-stage works. This application type has a feedback waiting period of 2 weeks from the time of application. The grand amount is capped at $30,000.

Project grants: For more complex projects. The waiting period is around two (2) months, and the application undergoes a rigorous review process. The expected grant amount exceeds $30,000.
Funding is made each quarter of the year.
