In 2024, Alex Bleier and Kevin Osborne from the Thomas Paine Institute received a grant for the purpose of locating and retaining intellectuals who agree with their mission of creating a free society in a new location. Initially the institute will focus its attention in the areas of Philosophy, Law, Human Resources, Finance, Real Estate, and Defense, as described in the booklet To Begin the World Over Again and the Declaration of Freedom. The social marketing campaign funded by this grant will focus on this goal of reaching out to Objectivist and freedom-loving groups and organizations.
