Frequently Asked Questions

How can I help support this important work?

The Jennifer A. Kay Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation. All donations are tax deductible to the extent allowable by law. You can donate on this website (on the “Donate” page) or by sending a check to:

Miriam Cilo Burns
Attention: JAKF
26 Beaver Street #13
New York, NY 10004 

Does the Foundation fund individual math and science projects or only organizations?

The Foundation gives grants only to 501(c)(3) tax-exempt entities. If you are an individual educator, we encourage you to partner with a 501(c)(3) corporation in order to be eligible for a grant. Most schools (public and private) are associated with such a corporation, so teachers should be able to work with their schools in order to receive Foundation funds.

Does the Foundation give scholarships?

The Foundation does not give scholarships to individuals at this time.

What is the deadline for submissions?

We welcome submissions throughout the year.
