The Dreyfus Foundation is pleased to announce the selection of 16 Camille Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar Supplemental Grant recipients for 2025.
This new program, open only to past grantees of our Camille Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar Awards program (known as the Teacher-Scholar Award prior to 1994), provides up to $50,000 to support research that needs an additional, modest infusion of funds to bring it to a satisfactory conclusion or stopping point. These grants will enable members of our community to finish discrete, high-impact projects.
