Wanted to contribute to: [SciML Small Grants Program Current Project List](https://sciml.ai/small_grants/#sciml_small_grants_program_current_project_list)

But, the Donate link (see below) appears to be broken.

- [Donate](https://numfocus.org/donate-to-sciml)

Is it adequately funded for now or working with the 1 month (“prevent sniping”) budget? The status is under development.

I’ll go ahead and look at the Numfocus donations page.

Wanted to point out that this was for: [Update LoopVectorization to Support Changes in Julia v1.12 ($200)](https://sciml.ai/small_grants/#update_loopvectorization_to_support_changes_in_julia_v112_200)

I’ll look at the overall NumFocus donations page.

(By the way, editing the post did not work…)

Hmmm. That link seems to load fine for me. Can you post a screenshot of the specific error that you’re running into?

I am using a hyper secure private browser, which might be the problem.

Yeah, are you able to try a different browser?

Probably a cookies problem even though I accepted all.
