Ways to Support the Space Science Institute
Our vision is worth supporting:
The Space Science Institute
is a thriving center of talented, entrepreneurial scientists, educators,
and other professionals who make outstanding contributions to humankind’s
understanding and appreciation of planet Earth, the Solar System,
the galaxy and beyond.
Excite…Explore….Discover….Our
researchers explore the interconnected earth system, the planets
in our solar system, and star forming regions in our galaxy. We are
on a journey of exploration to answer the question, Are we alone?
Our educators use this knowledge to excite and inspire the next generation
of space explorers. When you contribute to SSI you help to continue
a tradition of scientific education programs that reach millions
of teachers, parents and children each year.
A contribution to SSI is an investment in our nation's greatest resource
- our children and their education or you could support one or more
of our research programs. Your contribution allows the Space Science
Institute to complement existing funding and to leverage the additional
funding required to meet our ambitious organizational goals.
— SSI is a tax exempt nonprofit
organization, so your gift is tax deductible.
Donations
Support the
Institute as a whole or select a program of interest to you. Large
or small, your gift helps the Institute continue its legacy as a premier
research and education organization. Sometimes gifts are used to develop
innovative programming. And sometimes they simply go into a general
fund. That's up to you!
Planned Gifts

amount of planning, such as bequests, retirement plans, life insurance, stocks,
trusts, and estates. By including the Institute in your gift plans, you can
help to support our vision of bringing cutting edge science to the public.
