To explore, explain, and sustain life, the Academy depends on contributions from members, donors, and volunteers to operate our world-class museum, create transformative educational experiences, and advance innovative science. See how you can get involved today.
The best way to support the Academy during our temporary closure is with a tax-deductible donation to the Academy Relief Fund. Your gift will support the animals you love—and the heroes that have been caring for them throughout the COVID-19 crisis.
Support Academy science while cultivating your curiosity all year long with unlimited museum admission, exclusive programming, discounted tickets, shopping, dining, and more. Memberships start at $99.
Our donors make it possible for the Academy to shine as a science leader in California and around the world. Be a partner in our mission and help advance our major initiatives with a gift of $1,500 or more.
By naming the Academy as a beneficiary of your will, trust, retirement funds, or other assets today, your legacy will provide for the people and places you value most in the future.
Inspire your employees with unlimited Academy admission, private tours, and more, while aligning your business with cutting-edge research, education, and sustainability initiatives.
The Academy is proud to work with a diverse group of local and national foundations, grantmaking organizations, and government partners in providing vital support for our programs.
Bright minds and big ideas come together in The Hive, the Academy’s donor community for philanthropists in their 20s and 30s. Memberships start at $350.
Engage with a community of science-lovers while picking up new skills and knowledge. From helping visitors explore and understand our exhibits to diving in our aquarium tanks, there's an exciting volunteer opportunity to match nearly every interest.
