Our Donation Match Challenge deadline has been extended! Your gift can make TWICE the impact!
We have currently rasied close to $80,000 and are so close to our goal.
If you have not previously donated to the Museum, please consider making a contribution to help us reach our $100,000 matching challenge goal. Any donation above $100, made by a first-time donor, will be matched dollar for dollar by the Linden Root Dickinson Foundation.
What your gift supports:
San Diego Children's Discovery Museum believes every family should have access to engaging, fun, and educational activities; and that every child should have access to hands-on learning, regardless of financial and physical barriers.
