River Bend Nature Center is a center that gives numerous educational (STEM/STEAM) classes throughout the year to over 24,000 children, from all 50 states and 42 countries. It houses over 100 live exhibits and provides one-on-one experiences with nature through the guidance of knowledgeable docents and field guides. It holds camps and learning classes for children of all ages, but these come at a cost. The funds will be used so the center will not have to limit the amount of children served.
The center is located in Wichita Falls, Texas and is open 7 days a week and only closing for major holidays.
Addendum to Project Description (added after the project was signed)
We donated the funds on Texoma Gives Day so the grant was matched dollar for dollar. That made the total amount to River Bend Nature Center $4000.
