Make a Donation and Invest in Tomorrow

For over 50 years, The Lawrence Hall of Science has been inspiring tomorrow through innovative and engaging learning experiences focused on new frontiers of science. Today, these frontiers include fields that most could not even imagine at our founding in 1968, such as biotechnology, climate science, and artificial intelligence. Making STEM accessible to all is a priority at The Lawrence. We design learning materials and programs that reach millions of youth worldwide. Your giving makes a difference in virtually everything we do—in the Bay Area, across the nation, and around the globe.
