SEE Celebrates: a night of giving and discovery

This gala event is held in the fall at a unique and inspiring location with opportunities to support SEE’s mission while discovering the impact of SEE in the local STEM infrastructure and economy.

2024 Night of Giving and Discovery at Westwind

The 2024 Evening of Giving & Discovery was held September 19th and was presented by RBC Wealth Management.   The evening’s program highlighted our partnerships with the disability community and how this work has improved experiences at SEE for all our visitors.  Our host, Dean Kamen shared how the the unique size and atmosphere in New Hampshire provides many opportunities but to achieve them we must work together.  He emphasized how different and unique that is compared to where he grew up.  Guests enjoyed exploring the venue and had a chance to interact with DEKA engineers and witness physics concepts in action.  The event was a success thanks to our sponsors, supporters, volunteers and staff.
