A planned science center in Northern Virginia is getting a $10 million donation to jump-start its construction.
Northwest Federal Credit Union announced its donation Wednesday at a press conference.
The Children's Science Center will be an extension of the Richmond-based Science Museum of Virginia.
The project is expected to cost $75 million in total, and supporters say the project has now raised 85% of what will be needed. The science center will be located in Sterling, a few miles north of Dulles International Airport.
