Support Learning through Play

At the Discovery Center Museum, we’re all about creating magical moments that spark curiosity and foster a love for science and the arts. By supporting us, you help create unforgettable experiences for children and families in our community. Whether you contribute as a donor, a corporate sponsor, or a volunteer, you bring smiles, laughter, and learning to thousands of children.

Donate!

Every Donation Opens New Doors to Learning and Wonder for Children

Be a hero in the lives of countless kids by donating. Your generous donation helps fund hands-on exhibits, educational programs, and community outreach. Every contribution, big or small, helps us make science and discovery accessible to all. Plus, your donation is tax-deductible!

Individual Giving

Did you know that only 60% of what it takes to keep the museum running comes from admission and membership fees? Your donation helps us give children and families fun learning experiences that inspire joy and creativity.

Your gift may fund the purchase of cool stuff like art and tech supplies, build awesome exhibits and programs, and even take kids on field trips who couldn’t afford it otherwise. Every gift counts!

Tributes & Memorials

Whether it’s a family member, a beloved teacher, or the memory of someone special to you, a tribute or memorial gift is a meaningful way to honor them and support our mission.
