Collection Drive: Supplies for SEE

As SEE continues to grow and serve students in our region, we use more supplies.  We invite you to help us keep our store room full by dropping off select items that we can can deploy in our programming.

This Collection Drive is being managed by Jacob Rop, member of Scouting America Troop #106 Manchester, NH, for the achievement of Eagle Scout Rank

Donations can be dropped off at SEE Science Center's front desk anytime during open hours.
