The Rockefeller Foundation and OpenAI Foundation are
committing $50 million to Cities Deliver to support this work. The initiative
will provide grants of $500,000 to $2 million to organizations working with
city governments to improve public services through AI, especially for
underserved communities. Together, these projects will aim to reach up to 100
million city residents worldwide.

Every project needs:

• An eligible lead organization: A nonprofit (including university labs and fiscally sponsored organizations) or
  a public benefit corporation. For-profits may qualify in limited cases with a
  charitable project, and no more than an incidental benefit to the for-profit
  company’s business. Governments may not apply directly.
• 
  
  A city partner: All applicant organizations must have a city partner with a commitment to
  collaborate.
• 
  
  A charitable purpose: A benefit to underserved, poor, or distressed communities, or to social
  welfare.

All grants run 24 months, with 50% disbursed at the start
and 50% upon a documented mid-term milestone.
