Funding for the Center is carried out through tax-deductible donations from individuals,companies, service clubs, foundations, and groups. Mesa County Valley School District 51 donates the building space. Since there is no paid personnel, all funds go toward the Center’s operation including the Riverview Science Park.

John McConnell, founder/director of the center, is one of 35 "Passionaries" featured in a new book by Barbara Metzler. He's been in the news in other stories, too.
