From the AMS Secretary—AMS Contributors American Mathematical Society—Contributors

Dear AMS Members and Friends,

Thank you for the many ways in which you support and advance . This Contributors Report lets me especially thank everyone who made a charitable donation to mathematics through the American Mathematical Society in 2015. Your gifts make many good things happen, for many people, in our vast community. Over 700 students attended accelerated summer math programs supported by your gifts to the Epsilon Fund for Young Scholars. Thousands of scholars and students throughout the world had access to Mathematical Reviews through your gifts to MathSciNet® for Developing Countries. A great many scholars at the begin- ning of their careers benefitted from your donations to programs such as travel grants, JMM Child Care Grants, and Mathematics Research Communities. Your gifts to the Area of Greatest Need and to the AMS Endowment, which generates

McClure more. It is difficult to precisely count the of people who benefit from our donors’ generosity. Even prizes, awards, and fellowships that are given directly to individual serve to raise the public profile of the importance of mathematical sciences, something that benefits us all. Generosity was also expressed through several thoughtful tribute gifts, as well as estate gifts from Richard M. Cohn, Isidore Fleischer, Trevor James McMinn, and Franklin P. Peterson. Their dedication to mathematics will benefit the mathematics community now and for years to come. The future of the AMS and how it serves mathematics is bright. Thank you for your charitable giving that helps it to be so.
