The Astronomy Fundraising Group
We welcome the involvement of visionaries who can envisage what it will mean to have an astronomy observatory and planetarium in eastern Maine, a globally favored travel destination. They choose to help in a number of ways.
- It helps to share that one has made a donation oneself when reaching out to others.
- Reaching out to cultural heroes whose philanthropy may come to include the world of astronomy at Eagle Hill.
- Thinking of ways naming opportunities may play a role when reaching out to others.
- Researching family foundations and easing into engaging with the principals, in order to gently set the stage for submitting a grant proposal. The writing can be done by a professional.
- Hosting private dinners to introduce us to friends and colleagues who may come to have a growing interest in the world of astronomy at Eagle Hill. We are amenable to traveling well out of the state of Maine.
- Helping to think about and orchestrate fundraising events at Eagle Hill.
