Schaumburg, IL, March 28, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Actuarial Foundation, a

nationwide charity dedicated to advancing opportunity for students who need it

most, proudly announces its 30th-anniversary celebration, marking a

significant milestone in its journey to unlock student potential through

mathematics. Founded with a fervent commitment to its vision of an educated

public in pursuit of a secure financial future, The Actuarial Foundation has

paired thousands of students with mentors who foster a passion for math and

education. 

The Actuarial Foundation's resources give young people valuable knowledge and

insight to empower them to make more informed decisions. Their free curriculum

resources give teachers and students new reasons to be excited and confident

about mathematics, including hands-on projects, lesson plans, online

activities, and contests. 

The Actuarial Foundation’s Modeling the Future Challenge provides high

school students a glimpse into math modeling and the actuarial process, while

the STEM Stars Actuarial Scholarship Program helps students pay for higher

education and obtain access to mentors, passionate individuals who walk

alongside them on their journey to becoming actuaries.

The Math Motivators Tutoring Program pairs students from underserved

communities with professionals and college students who have strong

mathematics backgrounds. During the last school year, 523 volunteers gave

17,195 hours of their time, transforming futures for students around the

country.

You too can make a lasting difference in a young person's life with just a few

hours per month. With COVID learning loss, strained school resources, and a

fast-changing educational landscape, students are eager to benefit from your

time with the simple but effective help and encouragement they need to

succeed. The Actuarial Foundation prepares its mentors for meaningful tutoring

experiences and fun along the way with training and continual support. 

The Actuarial Foundation helps students who are behind in school and ready to

catch up. They also work with many students who are already succeeding but

want to challenge themselves toward new horizons.

The Actuarial Foundation’s year-long festivities will amplify the impact

achieved over the past three decades. Register for our upcoming virtual Gala
