Caroline Ellison, former girlfriend of SBF, has joined the non-profit organization Manifund, where she will be responsible for developing a funding platform and participating in charitable projects.
TechFlow reports that on September 12, according to The Block, Caroline Ellison, former girlfriend of FTX founder SBF and former CEO of Alameda Research, has joined the nonprofit Manifund to develop its funding platform and engage in charitable projects. Ellison began testing the platform under the pseudonym "Carol" in July and officially transitioned to a full-time position in August.
Ellison was once a core business partner of SBF and was also romantically involved with him. Following the collapse of FTX, she pleaded guilty to charges including fraud and conspiracy, and served as a key prosecution witness against SBF. Ellison began serving her sentence in November 2024 and was released early in January 2026.
Manifund primarily funds projects related to AI safety and effective altruism.
