Space Shuttle Children's Trust Fund

Following the Challenger disaster in 1986, a fund was created to pay for the astronauts' children to attend college.

The fund paid for the educations of 11 of the 13 Challenger children, and it is being revived for the children of Columbia's astronauts.

Anyone interested in donating should contact the Space Shuttle Children's Trust Fund, PO Box 34600, Washington, D.C., 20043-4600.
