IWA e.V. is a non-profit organisation, and we try to make the IAYC as affordable as possible for participants. The camp is almost solely supported by participation fees and a small amount of revenue from merchandise sold at the camps themselves. Your generous donation will allow us to:
- Keep the camp fee low
- Purchase new equipment to keep the camp relevant for modern astronomy
- Offer more camp fee grants to disadvantaged and minority participants
- Maintain our web servers and cover administration expenses/overheads
- Enthuse the next generation of astronomers!
Please note that IWA is a voluntary organisation. Leaders and organisational staff do not get paid. You can be assured that any donation or support you offer will directly benefit the participants of the camp.

Sponsorship
We welcome partnerships with organizations and individuals who can offer cash or equipment sponsorship. Sponsorship opportunities provide valuable support for our mission while offering recognition and benefits to our sponsors.
Our Sponsor Pack contains detailed information about available sponsorship packages, benefits, and partnership opportunities. This comprehensive guide outlines how your organization can support the IAYC while gaining valuable exposure to an international audience of astronomy enthusiasts.
