NHTM Scholarship Fund Drive

As part of NHTM's 50th year celebration, we are seeking to increase funds for our Scholarships. Every year, the Scholarship Fund supports one graduating high school senior and one college student in their pursuit of a mathematics education degree. As part of our drive, we asked registrants for NHTM's 50th Conference to donate. We thank the following members for their generous donations:
Isaac Newton Donors - $100+:
• Laurie Boswell
• Betty Erickson
• Dick Evans
• Ferd Prevost
• Greg Superchi
• Stephanie Wheeler
Carl Gauss Donor - $51 - $75:
• Terri Magnus
Leonhard Euler Donor - $26 - $50:
• Karen Graham
Bernhard Reimann Donor - $11 - $25:
• Lesley Fallu
• Donna Kelley
• Michelle Miller
Euclid Donor - $1 - $10:
• Danielle Vienneau
We also had three anonymous donations totaling $215!

If you are interested in helping NHTM's reach it's goal of raising $5,000 for our Scholarship Fund, get creative and have some fun. How much money could you help raise if:

• You solicited a $1 or $2 donation from every staff member in your building?
• You sponsored a $5 "Jeans Day" to support the Scholarship Fund?
• You challenged another school to see who could raise more money?
o Nashua South v. Nashua North?
o Profile v. Lisbon?
o Wilson v. Jewett?

Donor Categories:

• Isaac Newton Donor: $100 or more
• Archimedes Donor: $76 - $99
• Carl Gauss Donor: $51 - $75
• Leonhard Euler Donor: $26 - $50
• Bernhard Reimann Donor: $11 - $25
• Euclid Donor: $1 - $10

If you or your school would like to donate, please make your check out to NHTM Scholarship Fund Drive and send it by July 31st to:
