During May & June Mountain Top Explorium ran a Spring Scholarship Campaign. We are deeply indebted to Alpine Bank for providing a challenge grant of $7,500. We are excited to announce that we have successfully met the matching goal and raised a grand total of $16,825 in support of local school-aged child care programs.
This funding directly supports Mountain Top Explorium’s after school program which is held at Breckenridge and Upper Blue Elementary, school break programs which are hosted in Breckenridge and open to the entire school district, and our summer day camp scholarship program specifically serving the local students within Summit School District.
We couldn’t do this without the support of the Mountain Top Community. Thank you for your support and we’re proud to continue to serve the community!
