Purpose

The NAL JSC Endowment fund at the University of Houston - Clear Lake (UHCL) will support the archive's JSC history collections located there by perpetually paying for a student intern to work alongside the UHCL archivists to process and organize JSC employees donated collections of their papers and artifacts.  The larger the Endowment the bigger the financial impact on the preservation of JSC history in the archive.  In July 2025 we accomplished our goal of building the endowment to the minimum amount ($25K) so that it can now start to be a funding source for the archive. Good job NAL!

Please consider being part of this unique spaceflight historical preservation opportunity. Giving is not limited to NAL members so please inform friends and family about this endowment so they can also be a part in preserving our unique and compelling history!  Also, consider the endowment as part of your estate planning as well!
