Cosmic Countdown Campaign:

Full STEAM Ahead!

At BPAA’s Ritchie Observatory, we believe every child deserves the chance to explore the wonders of the universe. Our STEAM initiative aims to ignite their passion for science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM) by offering unique, hands-on learning experiences that combine the wonders of the night sky with both technical and creative exploration. Our year-end goal is to raise $50,000 to provide free, hands-on astronomy and art programs to school-aged youth throughout our community. With your support, we can foster creativity, curiosity, and scientific understanding in young minds across our region.

Your gift today will help fund these projects and more:

Free, interactive workshops in astronomy and art.
Field trips to our observatory, where students can explore the stars and planets.
Supplies for creative projects that blend science with artistic expression.

Your contribution can make a galaxy of difference!
Join us in giving the gift of learning and exploration. Every dollar brings us closer to unlocking the mysteries of space for young learners.

DONATE TODAY and be a part of their journey to the stars!
