our goal
Rigamajig is beloved by our community, and for good reason: It provides children with an open-ended opportunity to exercise their imagination while engaging in inquiry-based learning.
When a child builds something with Rigamajig, they’re building STEM skills, too, like collaboration, problem solving, and critical thinking.
With a goal to raise $25,000 by December 31, 2023, the Rigama-Give Campaign will fuel more opportunities for open-ended play with the transformation of our Rigamajig experience connected to the following milestones:
- $5,000 = new Rigamajig parts, tripling the building possibilities and the number of children who can engage with Rigamajig at once
- $15,000 = a new set of Rigamajig parts and the creation of custom, ADA-accessible workshop tables and display cases for a Rigamajig Wall of Fame
- $25,000 = all of the above, plus new flooring and graphics to fully transform the Creative Corner into the Rigamajig building environment of our dreams
help us reach our goal by sharing our campaign with your friends and family
benefits
While National Children’s Museum is congressionally designated, we receive $0 in annual federal appropriations. For this reason, we seek the support of our incredible community to help realize our vision for more open-ended play with a reinvented Rigamajig experience.
By contributing to our Rigama-Give Campaign, not only will you support our work to inspire children to care about and change the world, but you’ll also receive the following benefits:
| $25 gift | a social media shoutout for all that you do |
| $50 gift | a thank you note (with a surprise inside!) from the Museum team |
| $100 gift | your very own STEAM kit filled with at-home activities |
| $250 gift | special Museum gear |
| $500 gift | 15% discount on a birthday party at the Museum |
| $1,000 gift | limited edition Museum merchandise |
These levels stack, so the more you donate the more you benefit! (i.e., If you donate $1,000, you will receive all the benefits listed above.)
Everyone who contributes $10 or more will be invited to a special event in February 2024 to celebrate the reinvented Rigamajig space. Keep an eye out for more details on how to purchase your discounted event tickets.
