Plus is one of the projects run by the Millennium Mathematics Project, based in Cambridge. The MMP's activities are made possible by funding received from a number of organisations and individuals concerned by the state of mathematics education and the public perception of mathematics.
The publication of Plus is supported by a generous grant from the John Templeton Foundation, and by funding from the UK Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council. Plus has also been supported in the past by funding from Cambridge University Press and Cambridge Assessment (formerly the University of Cambridge Local Examinations Syndicate), the DfES, and the Faculty and Institute of Actuaries. The University of Cambridge's Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics provides free office accommodation. We would like to thank all of our sponsors, past and present, for their generous support.
We are committed to keeping Plus free for users to maximise access to the material. However, we are currently actively seeking further funding to support the future publication and development of the site.
If you enjoy Plus and would like to make a donation, of whatever size, we would be extremely grateful.
You can now donate to the Millennium Mathematics Project, including Plus, online by credit card through the University of Cambridge Development Office’s secure site.
Alternatively, you can make a donation by cheque or credit card via our postal donation form. (The donation form is a PDF document. To view PDF files you will need to have Adobe Acrobat Reader installed. It can be downloaded free from the Adobe website).
If you are a US taxpayer you may prefer to donate via Cambridge in America. Cambridge in America is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization (recognised by the US Internal Revenue Service) which funds grants that benefit Cambridge University and its member colleges. Gifts to Cambridge in America qualify for an income tax deduction to the limits allowed by law. You can give online or by post via the Cambridge in America gift form. Please state when making your gift that you would like your donation to support the Millennium Mathematics Project.
If you would like us to post you the form, or would like to discuss supporting the project in more detail, please email Julia Hawkins at mmp@maths.cam.ac.uk.
