Our Supporters During the past year, the New York City Math Team initiative has

expanded enabling us to serve an ever-widening audience. This year we intend to

continue regularly scheduled practice sessions, open to all interested NYC

students. In addition, we hope to participate in even more regional and national

events. Naturally, there are many expense incurred. To cover the nearly $60,000

in annual expenses, we rely entirely on the generosity of donors. Your deeply

appreciated support has made a real difference in student’s lives. It has provided

these young people exceptional opportunities and experiences. Their

achievements continue to bring honor to our City. Please visit our Web Site to
