Mozilla has today announced a COVID-19 Solutions Fund as part of the Mozilla Open Source Support Program (MOSS). The browser maker is looking to find open source technology projects fighting the ongoing COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic and has promised to award up to $50,000 to each project.

The company is accepting applications for both hardware and software projects, like an open source ventilator or a software platform that connects hospitals with people who own 3D printers and can thus print parts. It also includes software projects that solve for "secondary effects of COVID-19 (e.g., a browser plugin that combats COVID related misinformation)."
