Eugene Science Center has an endowment with Oregon Community Foundation to provide a stream of annual revenue to support exhibits, programs, and planetarium experiences. Growing the endowment is a strategic priority of the Science Center’s leadership because a stronger financial foundation will empower the Science Center to advance science education, while achieving greater long-term stability.
Endowment gifts of all levels are welcome and sincerely appreciated. Unrestricted gifts support the most pressing priorities.
Leadership gifts may be designated to key priorities of the Science Center, and may offer high-profile naming opportunities:
- Exhibit development and maintenance
- Educational programs
- Planetarium shows and support
- Family scholarships for camps and workshops
- Science Center access for families in need
- Field trip scholarships
- Facilities maintenance
- Key leadership positions
