Primary Sources of Financial Support
Science Buddies is the sole program of the Kenneth Lafferty Hess Family Charitable Foundation which itself provided major start-up funding for the program from 2001 to 2003. Corporate grants now provide the majority of Science Buddies' funding. Science Buddies is actively seeking corporate partners. For more information or to discuss a donation, contact Courtney Corda: courtney@sciencebuddies.org
Science Buddies is deeply grateful for the corporate and individual support we have received from the following organizations and people.
