"Providing local opportunities that educate, excite and inspire families."
“You cannot make people learn. You can only provide the right conditions for learning to happen.” ~ Vince Gowmon
"Promoting appreciation and knowledge of Montana through exciting educational opportunities for all ages."
We know that given the proper resources, encouragement and opportunities, children will have the opportunity to learn appreciation, improve personally and strengthen relationally. They will in turn become the leaders of our community with the insight and experience to transform Montana into an even better place. Our objective is simple, help our nonprofit community continue to provide, and even create new opportunities where kids and families thrive. |
Children's museums“Museums offer a dynamic opportunity to expose children to experiences and explore new things in a rich and educational environment. Through interactive exhibits and hands-on play, children have the ability to take ownership of their own learning and develop and explore their own curiosities. This unique exposure provides the foundation for creativity, critical thinking, and connection to the world around them.” —Sara Choi, Education Program Manager, Zimmer Children's Museum |
Wildlife SANCTUARIESAnimal sanctuaries exist for many specific reasons, but the overriding reason is to help protect animals and safeguard their lives. Animal sanctuaries give new homes to abandoned animals and animals rescued from dangerous conditions, help to protect animals from illegal activities, and serve as places where endangered animals breed and are therefore protected. Animals in animal sanctuaries cannot be responsibly returned to their natural habitats as they are not fit enough for the wild, or their habitat has been destroyed. A sanctuary is a haven, a place where animals can be protected. |
Fossil museumsMost kids go through a dinosaur phase, and who could blame them? The mysterious creatures come in so many shapes and sizes that there’s an endless amount of detail to study. Museums offer a great environment to take kids to so they can learn about dinosaurs beyond just looking at a textbook. |
