Support the REACH – Power the Future of STEAM Education

Since 2014, the REACH Museum’s education programs have reached over 65,000 students across the Mid-Columbia region. Through immersive, hands-on learning in Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM), we’re equipping the next generation of thinkers, builders, and leaders.

Now, with your support, we’re ready to do even more.

A Bold Vision: The New STEAM Education Center

To meet growing community demand, the REACH Foundation is launching an ambitious expansion: a new STEAM Education Center adjacent to the Museum. The new facility will include:

  • Dedicated classrooms

  • Interactive learning gallery

  • Rotating exhibit space

  • A lamprey eel aquarium

  • A demonstration lab, and more

Your support directly fuels this effort—helping us reach more students, host more programs, and inspire more minds.

Why Your Support Matters

Your gift helps us create meaningful, hands-on learning experiences that serve students and families across our region. Programs like Little Explorers, STEAM Family Nights, and Boredom Busters thrive because of donors like you.

  • All donations make a difference—every dollar supports accessible, engaging education.

  • Your gift may be tax-deductible—consult your tax advisor to confirm.

  • Double your impact—check if your employer offers a matching gift program.

Together, we’re making STEAM education possible for everyone.
