The New York Quarterly Meeting Education Fund gives money to members and children of NYQM to help attend Brooklyn Friends School and Friends Seminary. It is funded through bequests left to NYQM in the name of either school or to the Quarter for educational purposes. The amount awarded to each child varies from year to year as it is based on the number of applicants to each school and the interest from the endowment. In addition, funds are available to assist students with the costs of applying to the Mary McDowell Friends School. Applications are due by Friday March 20, 2026. We will notify you of your award by Sunday April 20, 2026.
