BUILDING COMPASSIONATE CHEMISTS AND CHEMICAL ENGINEERS IN OUR COMMUNITIES
The Jeremy T. Feaster Foundation empowers students and educators in chemistry and chemical engineering to improve our community through science and service.
WHO WE ARE
The Jeremy T. Feaster Foundation Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to developing the next generation of chemists and chemical engineers who combine technical excellence with compassion, service, and leadership.
We believe chemistry and chemical engineering can be a catalyst for change, not just for industry and innovation but for improving lives, strengthening communities, and addressing real societal challenges.

“Passion to Action” Compassionate Chemistry Workshops
Encouraging the next generation of chemists and chemical engineers to think critically, creatively and compassionately as they enter the workforce and solve today’s biggest challenges.
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.
Through our endowed scholarships and mentoring workshops, we are committed to the long haul - and we believe that we are creating a generation of incredible leaders who use chemistry to help others and build a better tomorrow.
A PERSONAL MISSION
The foundation was established in 2012 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 generosity directly supports increasing the number of scholarships we can award and the availability of the mentorship opportunities for students who are using chemistry to make a difference.
