MEMBER STORY
[Teacher 1] We're building our ceramics program, and Mountain America's grant allowed us to buy kiln shelves that allow us to bake our pottery and get it ready to send home with the kids. [Teacher 2] It's just so exciting. I couldn't stop smiling, and the kids have been so excited. There's just no way I could have done this by myself.
