The AMS Epsilon Fund for Young Scholars was established in 1999 to provide financial assistance to summer programs for mathematically talented high school students in the United States.

The grants for summer 2007 are paid for by the AMS Epsilon Fund for Young Scholars (supplemented by the AMS Program Development Fund).

The AMS is building the endowment for the Epsilon Fund, with a goal of $2 million through individual donations and grants.  Once the Epsilon Fund endowment has reached the targeted amount, the AMS will award a total of $100,000 in Epsilon grants each year.

For further information about the Epsilon Fund, visit the website http://www.ams.org/giving-to-ams/  or contact development@ams.org; or by telephone 800-321-4267.
