Galileo Telescope Makers takes its social responsibilities very seriously. We have programmes specifically targeted to educating underprivileged children about the sky. Our social activities include gifting telescopes to schools and poor communities, organising free astronomy workshops and Ask an Astronomer, an educational programme for young enthusiasts.
