When do they need the money by? I'm currently a bit low on funds due to tuition and rent, but I can probably spare $500-1000 in a couple of weeks (I try to maintain an emergency fund, and don't want to dip into that if I don't need to).
Also, do you have a page I link to where they describe the immediate funding gap? If possible, I will turn this into a donation-matching thing, probably on /r/transhuman (leverage is always good).

Thank you for that. It looks like I do indeed have a new job, so as soon as the paycheck comes in I will not need to dip into the emergency fund.
By the way, do you happen to know what would happen if the funding didn't come about? Would you dip into the prize fund, or simply hold off on testing until you got sufficient funding.
I can't speak authoritatively, but I think testing would have to be put on hold.
The $100,000 for the prize fund is pledged specifically for when the prize is won, so there's no easy way to change that.
