WHY IT MATTERS
From classrooms to communities, the Feaster Foundation invests in people who see science not just as a career, but as a calling to serve others.
A PERSONAL MISSION
The foundation was established by Dr. Jeremy T. Feaster, a chemical engineer and principal investigator working to convert air and water into fertilizer for farmers across the United States and beyond. He was initially inspired by the teachers and mentors who sparked his own journey, especially his high school chemistry teacher, Mrs. Magdalene McClain.
Her belief in students, paired with access to hands-on science, planted the seed for a career dedicated to impact and service through chemistry.
HELP US BUILD THE NEXT GENERATION
Your support directly funds scholarships, lab grants, and mentorship opportunities for students who are using chemistry to make a difference.
