How You Can Help

A donation -- no matter how small -- will help us achieve our goals.  There are several ways to donate. Donations to the Dark Sky Community Fund managed by the Community Foundation for Nantucket will support our educational and charitable intiatives. Donations to us directly, via check or our GoFundMe campaign, will help pay for our educational and charitable initiatives as well as our general operational expenses.  Donations to both are tax deductible. (We became a 501(c)(3) tax exempt organization in 2025.)

The more supporters we have, the more influential we can be. Join our email list to show your support for our mission and goals, and to get updates, calls to action, and other important information delivered directly to your inbox. 

Watch for ways you can help on this front, as we become aware of proposals that you can lobby for or vote for.

Follow the guidance in our Outdoor Lighting Guide for making your own home or business dark-sky friendly. 

Let your neighbors, friends, family members and businesses you frequent know about the importance of preserving our dark skies and encourage them to join our dark sky movement.

 You can also show your support by putting one of our bumper stickers on your vehicle.  Available at no charge!

You can also show your support by wearing this wonderful t-shirt. For sale at https://www.bonfire.com/discover-the-night-on-nantucket/.

 If you can spare the time, volunteer to help with one of our projects.
