Individual Giving 

Joyful learning starts with you



Thinkery’s Open Door Initative

Thinkery’s Open Door Initiative is removing financial barriers to ensure EVERYONE has access to Thinkery’s exceptional learning experiences and programs.

Learn how you can support Thinkery’s Open Door Initiative and share the power of STEAM education throughout Central Texas!

Spark After Dark

When you give starting at the $500 level each calendar year, you are not only covering a camp and extend-a-care scholarship for a future problem solver, but you are also adding your name to the invitation list for Spark After Dark — Austin’s most playful party of the year.

Big Thinkers

Big Thinkers are donors who commit to supporting Thinkery for the next five years starting at the $5,000 giving level. Their investment will advance important initiatives that help Thinkery Build for the Future. Learn more about how we can think big together to equip the next generation of creative problem solvers.
