Brooks Heritage Foundation
and BHF Gift Shop
.
The Brooks Heritage
Foundation was founded in 1987 and is a non-profit, 501(c)(3)
organization whose purpose is to educate the public on the important
role of aerospace research, development, and education. The Foundation
accomplishes this purpose through support of the material heritage
activities at Brooks City-Base, Texas.
The Foundation also has an active Scholarship Program directed
toward graduating high school seniors pursuing a career in a scientific
or technical field and to students enrolled in the Brooks City-Base
Student Education Employment Program [Student Aides].
In April 1996, the Foundation agreed to support the formation
of a Challenger Learning Center to be located on Brooks in close
proximity to historic Hangar 9. In March 1997 the Brooks Aerospace
Foundation was formed expressly to operate the Challenger Learning
Center of San Antonio. Both Foundations work closely together
to keep the link between past and future secure.
In 1992, the BHF opened a Gift Shop. The shop features a unique
and extensive collection of fine gifts, books, children's toys
and custom designed shirts. The BHF Gift Shop is the exclusive
retail outlet for Challenger
Learning Center of San Antonio merchandise.
