Giving Back
We believe ubiquitous access to space starts right here in Alameda, California where our headquarters and factory are based. Astra is committed to donating a percentage of our retail store profits (minus fixed operating costs) to a rotating selection of nonprofits, including organizations focused on STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math) education.
We are pleased to announce that our featured nonprofits are oSTEM, a nonprofit professional association for LGBTQ+ people in STEM and The Trevor Project, which provides mental health support and resources for LGBTQ+ youth.
Giving back has been a core part of our store's mission since we opened our virtual doors.
- From April 12 through May 31, 2022, Astra donated retail store profits toward Alameda Education Foundation’s After School STEM Classes across Alameda’s Title I schools.
- From March 14, 2022 through April 11, 2022 Astra donated retail store profits to four non-profits who have been actively assisting those in Ukraine suffering as a result of the invasion of Russian military forces.
Thank you for shopping at the Astra Store, and if your nonprofit is interested in partnering with Astra, please reach out to us here.
