Ignite Curiosity, Encourage Exploration, and Inspire Creativity

Donate to the Leonardo da Vinci Museum of North America

Your generosity brings creativity, scientific discovery, imagination, and hands-on learning to life. Gifts support exhibitions, STEAM education, scholarships, camps, workshops, lectures, festivals, and family programs at the Leonardo da Vinci Museum of North America.

As a new museum serving Pueblo, Colorado, and visitors from around the world, we inspire curiosity, foster innovation, and expand educational opportunities for children, families, students, and lifelong learners.

Every gift matters. Whether one-time or recurring, your support helps ensure that Leonardo da Vinci’s spirit of curiosity, creativity, imagination, and invention inspires future generations.

STEAM Center Student Scholarship Fund

The STEAM Center Student Scholarship Fund provides financial assistance for students who may not otherwise have access to camps, workshops, classes, field trips, and hands-on learning experiences at the Leonardo da Vinci Museum of North America & STEAM Center.

Your gift helps remove barriers to participation and gives young learners the opportunity to explore science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics through creativity, experimentation, and discovery.

By supporting the Scholarship Fund, you are investing in the next generation of innovators, problem-solvers, artists, engineers, and lifelong learners.

Stock & Securities Gifts

A gift of appreciated stock, securities, or mutual funds is a meaningful and tax-efficient way to support the Leonardo da Vinci Museum of North America while helping inspire creativity, scientific curiosity, innovation, and educational opportunity for children and families across Colorado. Many donors find that giving appreciated assets may allow them to avoid capital gains tax while also receiving a charitable income tax deduction based on the fair market value of the gift.

By donating stock or securities directly, you may be able to make a larger philanthropic impact than through a cash gift alone, helping to support exhibitions, STEAM education, scholarships, camps, workshops, and public programs that inspire the next generation of innovators and lifelong learners.

Donate Stocks

Honor the life, memory, or legacy of someone special through a meaningful gift to the Leonardo da Vinci Museum of North America.

Gifts may be made in memory of, in honor of, or in celebration of a special person, milestone, educator, artist, scientist, or loved one. We would be honored to help you recognize a meaningful tribute.

Matching Gifts

Double—or even triple—your impact. Many employers offer matching gift programs that increase the value of charitable donations made by employees, retirees, or spouses.

Please check with your employer to see whether your contribution to the Leonardo da Vinci Museum of North America qualifies for a matching gift. Submitting a matching gift request may significantly expand access to exhibitions, educational programs, scholarships, STEAM workshops, and community experiences for children and families.
