Daily sponsorships are full

The daily "on air" sponsorships that begin each episode are full until the end of the year! That is great news and many thanks to the many sponsors who have supported the podcast.

You can still help! The $25/day sponsorships do not get all the bills paid. If your pockets are a bit deeper, you can get your name added to the after-episode on-air thank you's that are on every episode. These sponsorships are $300 per month.

Remember, every dollar we collect goes to paying the production expenses of the podcast. We have benefited from thousands of hours volunteerism and thousands of dollars of services, all of it so you can listen to this podcast.

Email info@365DaysOfAstronomy.org if you want to help out.

Sponsor a day for $25

Producing 365 podcasts isn't free. Through a variety of sponsorships we hope to raise enough money to pay students to do the post-production work on the podcast. 100% of the money we collect goes to the production of the podcast and associated materials.

To that end we are offering sponsorships for $25 per day. Like the podcasts, you can suggest a specific date or dates for your sponsorship and we'll dole them out on a first-come first-serve basis. Sponsors will be mentioned "NPR style" on the podcasts they sponsor. All donations are tax-deductible where allowed by law.

So...you or your organization could sponsor 1 podcast per week, every podcast for a given week, 1 per month -- you decide. You're doing a good thing and your sponsorship will literally make the podcast possible.

To donate via PayPal, click on the Donate button on the left and tell us your date requests, if any, in the Add special instructions to the seller box at PayPal*. You can also email us at info@365DaysOfAstronomy.org to arrange other payment methods.

We are also looking for major corporate sponsors to help us with production expenses, equipment, travel and printing of CD, DVD and written materials.

Thank you in advance!

* At PayPal you'll be donating to the Southern Illinois University Edwardsville Foundation for the International Year of Astronomy Media Task Group & Websites Fund.
