Lick Observatory depends on donations to enhance our research, telescopes and instruments, and public outreach and education programs. We have two general funds for supporting our operations:
UCO/Lick Observatory fund to support operations at Lick Observatory on Mount Hamilton
and the
University of California Observatory’s Director’s Discretionary Fund for supporting Lick Observatory and its parent organization, University of California Observatories.
Please contact Natasha Pedroza in our development office if you want more information concerning large donations supporting a particular project or facility at Lick Observatory.
