Please Give To Blue Hill Observatory’s Annual Fund

During this “Giving Season” Blue Hill Observatory has the opportunity to have donations made to our Annual Fund matched. Essentially, if we raise $100,000 then an anonymous donor will match it with another $100,000 contribution. We know we can reach this goal together, but we need you to act today. This match incentive is designed to recognize current donors and to inspire new donations in order to sustain the Observatory’s important nonprofit work across climate science research, education and outreach—today and in the future.

How the Match Works

All new donations will be matched 2 to 1—
  • By example, a new individual donation of $100 will be matched with a $200 donation from the match contributor—making the total donation $300.
All previous donors, since last year, that increase their giving will have the difference of the increase matched 2 to 1—
  • By example, a donation of $50 dollars increased to $75, with a difference of $25, will result in a match of $5o—making the total gift $125.
Your support will…
  • Maintain our Historic and Extensive Climate Record—with daily weather observations that support weather and climate reports to the public, science research, and climate education.
  • Leverage “Picture Post for Environmental Conservation” Program—to proactively reach and support thousands of youth and their teachers in coming to the Observatory for STEM experiential learning experiences.
  • Complete a new Exhibit Hall at the Observatory—and continuously update the educational content displayed on state-of-the-art touchscreens that will reflect changing weather and climate issues.
  • Build an Online Platform—to house and share more than 137 Years of climate data that will continue to grow each year.
