The Camille and Henry Dreyfus Foundation is proud to announce a new program open only to past grantees of our Camille Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar Awards program (known as the Teacher-Scholar Award prior to 1994).
The Supplemental Grants for Camille Dreyfus Teacher-Scholars Program 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 Camille Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar community to finish discrete, high-impact projects.
The deadline for this program is September 9, 2025.
Program Overview
Grant Size: Up to $50,000
Duration: Up to one year from early November 2025.
Eligibility: Open to all recipients of the Camille Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar Award (known as the Teacher-Scholar Award prior to 1994) whose Award period has ended and who have submitted a final report.
Selection
Grants are intended to briefly accelerate critical momentum in research and help bring work to conclusion. Examples include accelerating data collection or analysis; bringing work to publication; and lab or computing expenses. This would not fund new projects or general support. Review will focus on clear research value and feasibility within one year or less. Applicants should clearly describe the circumstances that led to the urgent need for an additional grant.
