CBSAP/Sunlit Earth! Spring 2023 fundraiser underway!
Welcome to the spring 2023 fundraiser for the Charlie Bates Solar Astronomy Project/Sunlit Earth! We are the nonprofit that pays for and maintains this solar astronomy internet form.
We are a US federal and state of Georgia registered nonprofit 501(c)(3) that gathers resources including equipment and cash in order to teach more people about the beauty of light from its creation in the core of the Sun to it’s manipulation by terrestrial biosystems to survive.
We have taken our program of Solar Astronomy, Solar Imaging and Sunlight-based nature hikes directly to over 1.2 million people in 27 countries since 2010.
Our goal is to increase the understanding of science and nature and to provide a starting point for young people to get into STEM based careers to improve our community.
Please consider a generous donation via PayPal to our spring fundraiser. You will be helping science and you will feel good about yourself. Let’s do this, ya’ll!

Don't forget folks you can also set up a monthly donation via paypal, which is what I do, you can then spread the cost of a larger donation throughout the year.
