Sponsorship Opportunities 

Get ready to boogie for a cause! This year’s Fundraising Gala is bringing the glitz, groove, and glitter of the Disco era—all in support of STEAM education! We’re turning up the funk to fund innovative learning experiences for RCSD students, and we need superstars like you to help keep the momentum going. So dust off your dancing shoes, strike a pose under the disco ball, and join us as a sponsor to make an impact that shines brighter than a sequined jumpsuit!

Become a Sponsor and Support the Future of STEAM Education! We invite you to join us as a sponsor for this year’s Fundraising Gala—an evening dedicated to supporting innovative learning experiences for our students.

Your Sponsorship Makes a Difference   Every sponsorship directly supports the Rhinebeck Science Foundation’s (RSF) mission to bring cutting-edge STEAM programs to ALL RCSD schools. Thanks to the generosity of sponsors and donors like you, RSF continues to enhance and expand learning opportunities, funding both beloved traditions and exciting new initiatives, such as:

• Science Night Out – A fan-favorite event where CLS students and parents engage in hands-on science experiments led by Bard College students alongside RHS and BMS students. 
• Innovation Hub – A dynamic maker space in the high school fostering creativity, engineering, & design thinking.
• RHS Robotics Team – A thriving group of students who designed, built, and programmed their own competition-ready robot.
• State-of-the-Art STEM & Tech Labs – We created cutting-edge learning environments at CLS, BMS, and RHS, plus we gave initial funding for the district-wide 1:1 laptop program for digital equity.
• Inspiring Educational Field Trips – We provide CLS students with hands-on learning experiences at places like the Bronx Zoo and iFly, where classroom science comes to life.

Join Us in Making a Lasting Impact!  Your support strengthens our schools, enriches our community, and shapes the future of our students. We need your help to keep this momentum going! Please consider:
