The Fairbanks Museum & Planetarium is a nonprofit institution that relies on contributions from individuals and businesses to deliver programs, provide services and present exhibits.
Your gift at any level makes a difference.

Donations to the Museum's Annual Fund can be made directly in addition to membership contribtuions. Annual Fund donations are the bedrock of our operating budget, providing essential support for school services, Eye on the Sky weather programs, caring for our collection and maintaining our treasured Victorian building.
Corporate sponsors invest in our heritage and in our future. The Museum partners with many businesses to deliver services for a strong and healthy community. Business partners are recognized through our monthly e-newsletter, print calendar and on our website.
Planned giving is finding ways to make charitable gifts now or after your lifetime while enjoying financial benefits for yourself.
Unlike cash donations, they are typically made from assets in your estate rather than disposable income. The most common planned gift is a bequest in your will or living trust. Other planned gifts include:
A charitable gift annuity
A charitable remainder trust
A charitable lead trust
An endowment trust
Retirement plan assets
Life insurance policies
A remainder interest in your home
Please contact Anna Rubin at the Museum to talk about ways you can leave a legacy for generations to come.
