  • Family STAR Nights

Sponsorship opportunities

$500 - $20,000 for a 2 year sponsorship


Anyone can adopt their favorite display and help in maintaining  and upgrading it as needed. Perfect for those who have a specific interest and wish to see it preserved and treasured for years to come. 


With more than 50,000 visitors a year, the Challenger finds that many exhibits are literally loved to pieces, so this category of sponsorship is vital to maintaining them in a manner befitting the tribute the Challenger was designed to be. 

$5,000 - $50,000 per year

​

In order to provide field trips to Title One schools, the Center relies heavily on contributions from citizens and corporations who have chosen to commit themselves to make STEM education available to all of Arizona's children.  These field trips help make the subject come alive to the students making it more than just a class but rather an enrichment.  Our students often send us notes of thanks not just for the activities of the day, but for making them realize that Space and Technology is a possibility for their lives.    Your help in being able to not only continue this vital program, but expand it would be greatly appreciated, not just by those of us at the Challenger but also by all of the teachers we work with across Arizona.  

$1,000 and up to $1,000,000+

​

These incredible individuals and corporations make contributions that allow the Center to provide on-going services to students and visitors statewide.  Their support help us with gap funding for a wide array of projects from bringing in new exhibits, facility rejuvenation and  technology updates to expanding programming in economically-challenged communities.     


These are in the form of either annual commitments or as significant one time gifts.
