| The AMS will provide a limited number of grants of US$125 per family to help with the cost of child care for registered participants of the AMS Fall Eastern Sectional Meeting, now being held virtually, formerly scheduled to be held at Pennsylvania State University, University Park, State College, PA. This meeting will take place October 3-4, 2020. The funds may be used for any form of child care that frees a parent to participate more fully in the meeting. Grants will be awarded on a first-come, first-served basis, one per family, and one per season (i.e. Spring or Fall), the latter depending on the amount of grants available. You must be registered for the meeting as well as be an AMS member in order to apply for this program.
Please note that you are solely responsible for arranging child care. You may use this grant for any sort of child care, which gives you the freedom to use these funds in a way that is most useful to your family. The AMS will not make any recommendations for child care providers.
Applications will be accepted on a first-come first-served basis until August 11, 2020. Final decisions on recipients will be made on or before September 1, 2020.
Details on the distribution of grant funds will be sent to all recipients before the meeting, but please note that each recipient will be required to submit a completed W-9 form prior to the meetings to receive a check. |
