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
