FY23 Support UMBRA Projects

Where Does Your Donation Go?


Projects will use various materials, resources, and machining costs. General examples of such are provided below.

  • Epoxy Adhesives

  • Fiberglass tubes, nosecones, fins, and fabric

  • Aluminum piping for tooling

  • Electronics hardware, PCB production and assembly

  • Tools: Currently, we rely on the good will of our members to provide personal equipment, or sources such as makerspaces and workshops. For the tools we do posses, we provide to all members free and easy access to such. 

  • Transportation to launches: For launches at FAR, our team can generally organize carpools to and from the launch site. Although, travel fees will be much higher this year for transportation of the NSL team and rocket to Huntsville, AL, requiring transportation, housing, and meals for the launch dates.

  • Aluminum Pipes for motor development

  • Machine Stock for graphite nozzle assembly, phenolic nozzle holder and liners, and aluminum for bulkhead and boat tail

  • Filament for 3D printing services

  • Parachutes for recovery

  • Chemicals for solid propellant mix

  • Renting facilities for professional tools and spaces for mixing propellant

  • Liquid propellants

FAQ

What is the "Donor Wall"?

The Donor Wall displays a full list of the donations to the campaign, and it can be viewed by clicking the "Donor Wall" tab on the campaign page. Using the options found at the bottom of this donation page, each donor can customize the way their gift can be viewed on the site by hiding their name, the amount the gave, or both.

What is the difference between hiding my name on the Donor Wall and making my donation anonymously?

Hiding your name and/or the amount you gave on the donor wall only changes the way your gift is acknowledged on this campaign's page. Your donation may still be acknowledged through publications of CPP Magazine and any other methods of recognizing CPP's donors. If you wish to make your gift totally anonymous, answer "Yes" to the question "Do you prefer to make this donation anonymously?". This will also give you the opportunity to request that all donations you make to CPP in the future will be treated the same way. Please note, that you will also need to select your Donor Wall display preferences for each gift you make to Cal Poly Pomona Crowdfunding or Giving Day.
