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.

2025 Night of Giving and Discovery at Westwind

On September 25, 2025 the much needed rainfall did not dim the spirit in the room for SEE Celebrates, an Evening of Giving & Discovery presented by RBC Wealth Management.  The evening’s program shared the voices of several of the more than 30 nonprofit organizations that SEE partners with to help SEE reach and engage  families in our community.  Our host, Dean Kamen shared how fortunate we are to be a relatively small community and to be able to have a science center.  He emphasized how in New Hampshire ideas can become reality and everyone can make an impact.  Guests enjoyed exploring the venue and had a chance to interact with DEKA engineers and see the one-of-a-kind engineering projects that their team has created.  The event was a success thanks to our sponsors, supporters, volunteers and staff.  In 2025 we are most proud that we received donations from a record one hundred and fifteen individuals at this event.  The gifts ranged from $25 to $250,000 and every one of them is appreciated and will have an impact at SEE.
