Non-Profit Status.
EIN: 87-4271818
The Operator Algebras Mentor Network has recently been established as a legal entity and have been granted 501(c)(3) non-profit status in the United States. We have opened up an international bank account, with plans to begin accepting electronic donations of any currency here on our website.
This non-profit status is a designation by the US government and any donations from US-persons made to the OAMN are tax-deductible, although we can receive donations from nearly every currency/country. Please reach out to our email oamentornetwork[at]gmail[dot]com if you are interested in giving a donation.
The Operator Algebras Mentor Network (OAMN) is committed to fostering gender diversity within mathematics, particularly in the field of operator algebras. Established in response to the need for mentorship and support for underrepresented individuals facing abuse or harassment, OAMN operates on a three-tier structure—senior mentors, junior mentors, and mentees. The organization promotes inclusivity, using the term “underrepresented or in minority within mathematics due to gender” as an umbrella phrase to encompass various gender identities.
The network has grown significantly since its inception in 2019, now spanning 26 countries across North America, Europe, Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Oceania. The OAMN’s activities include mentoring, career advice, and community building, facilitated through annual mentor group rematching and events such as conference meetups, career panels, and mentor-focused workshops. The organization received 501(c)(3) non-profit status in 2022 and has garnered financial support, including the 2022 Elsevier Mathematical Sciences Scholarship, to fund initiatives promoting diversity and inclusion in mathematics. The Network’s comprehensive approach aims to improve the well-being of its members, enhance mentorship skills, and create a supportive environment for underrepresented individuals in operator algebras.
