Contributors may direct gifts to the area of greatest need, or to specific programs: Tax-deductible contributions strengthen our research, technology development and education programs.

Research: Your gift could help develop a promising new idea into a sustainable long-term research program.

Technology Development: Your gift could support engineering to develop sensitive optics and detectors for space and ground-based telescopes.

Education: Your gift could provide a fellowship for our next-generation astronomers, allowing us to benefit from the energy and talents of the best and brightest young people.

To discuss these programs in detail, please call Amanda Preston, Advancement and External Affairs Officer.
