Foundations Learning Center

⛳ What a Day on the Course! ⛳

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for Fairways for Futures at Coldwater Golf Links. Because of the incredible support from our golfers, sponsors, volunteers, and community partners, we are thrilled to share that $28,000 was raised to support Anchored Hope, Foundations Learning Center, and Martha’s House of Hope! These funds will directly support high-quality early childhood education, family stability, and safe housing opportunities for those who need it most.

Thank you for helping us turn a day of golf into meaningful change!

Step into Storybooks, a free community event hosted by Raising Readers of Story County, brought literacy to life for children of all ages and stages of development. Local organizations each hosted interactive stations inspired by a book, blending reading with hands-on fun.

This year, Foundations Learning Center featured Ten Black Dots by Donald Crews. At our station, kids rolled a die and used black dot stickers to create their own pictures.

A glimpse into our classroom this winter ❄️🥰

The classrooms were filled with pinks, reds, and heart-shaped activities. Throughout winter, we focused on simple, hands-on activities. The kids worked on fine motor skills through cutting, gluing, and decorating heart crafts. Sensory tables featured pink and red materials to scoop, sort, and explore.

A huge thank you to these amazing donors for the treats that made our dessert auction a success! We couldn’t have done it without you!

What. A. Night.❤️

Last week, we hosted our Trivia Night Fundraiser, and it was a huge success! The night was filled with six rounds of trivia, including a round dedicated to testing knowledge on Foundations Learning Center. The dessert auction brought a sweet touch to the competition, with enthusiastic bidding that helped advance our mission.

We’re grateful for a community that consistently shows up. Events like this make our mission possible.

Calling all besties + trivia lovers! 💘
Trivia Night is happening Feb. 13, and it’s the perfect excuse for a fun night out with friends.
