People crazy enough to celebrate Mole Day have got to be wonderful. I'm not sure what the future holds in store for the Foundation, but I do know it is viable and will continue to get kids enthused about chemistry. My goal is that at least every chemistry teacher hears about and in some way celebrates National Mole Day each year. We have a long way to go, but it is happening. In an attempt to spread the word about Mole Day, NMDF, has created The Maury Award.
Any science teacher is eligible to apply for a grant award.
If the applicant is not a member of NMDF, the first budget item must be for membership. Grant applications must have educational content that promotes Mole Day and chemistry education. Each Maury Award application is for a particular program idea . Only one grant application will be accepted from a teacher for each grant period. Grant applications are reviewed and a limited number will be awarded on a competitive basis annually.
