Annual Fund
The Annual Fund is essential to Fernbank’s sustainability and growth. Every gift, large or small, has a meaningful impact. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, your personal gift will support our most pressing needs and help to ensure Fernbank presents cutting-edge exhibits, awe-inspiring movies and dynamic enrichment programs. Join us and help Fernbank thrive for future generations!
Thanks to the extraordinary generosity of a Fernbank Trustee, every Annual Fund gift will be matched dollar for dollar, up to $200,000. This matching challenge will help raise critical, unrestricted support for Fernbank's Annual Fund. Make your gift today and double your impact as we inspire curiosity, expand access, and strengthen science education for our community.
