Since our beginning in 2011, WMEF has provided $2,000 scholarships to 29 students for a total of $58,000.

These scholarships and fellowships are funded by donations from individuals who have a vested interest in improving mathematics education in Wisconsin’s classrooms. Please consider making a donation today!
