DISCOVERY CUBE’S ANNUAL INSPIRE GALA

A SINCERE MESSAGE OF THANKS TO OUR SUPPORTERS!

After months of debate it was with a heavy heart that, on behalf of our Los Angeles Board Vice Chair, The Honorable Wendy Greuel and Chair, Pedram Salimpour, MD, we shared with you that the 2021 Discovery Cube Los Angeles INSPIRE Gala was cancelled.

We sincerely appreciate that our community includes us as one of its charities of choice through the Gala each year. Together, you gave over $180,000 for our “In Lieu of Gala Campaign” supporting Discovery Cube’s vital online science education programs and resources needed for our community during these unprecedented times. A truly remarkable outpouring of support from YOU, our STEM champions! On behalf of our Board of Directors and the Discovery Cube Team, THANK YOU!

Your contributions will help us to reach more than 110,239 students this year throughout Southern California with  * Discovery Cube Connect*  and, our unique online programs and tailored curriculum will impact nearly 20,000 LAUSD students alone, supporting our local underserved Los Angeles communities, and for that we are so grateful! We look forward to inviting you, our supporters, to a special Grand Reopening event at Discovery Cube Los Angeles. Stay tuned!

 Thank you for being “IN” for science education!

We are resilient, believe in the greater good, and look to science for encouragement, hope and the way forward – remembering that this is why we believe inspiring the next generation of scientists and leaders is so critical. As we pull together to make smart healthy decisions, we will come out on the other side of this stronger, smarter and more determined to make sure our children have the resources to lead in science, technology, engineering, math — or whatever else they choose to do!

Special thanks to ALL our current donors who’ve helped us with our In Lieu of Gala campaign! Thank you for being “IN, for science education!”
