If I can stop one heart from breaking,
I shall not live in vain;
If I can ease one life the aching,
Or cool one pain,
Or help one fainting robin
Unto his nest again,
I shall not live in vain.
—Emily Dickinson
A cash prize given to an under-recognized, undersupported senior
scholar. The grant will support the recipient’s ongoing research
