Our Supporters

The Glacier Institute thanks the following businesses, individuals, and organizations for their support of our youth field-science programs, Discovery School,  for K-12 students at the Big Creek Outdoor Education Center.

Thanks to their annual donations, the Glacier Institute provides more than 1,200 children with the opportunity to study forestry, wildlife biology, aquatic ecology and other subjects in Glacier's backyard. For many children, their experience at Big Creek's Discovery School is the highlight of the school year, and for others, it's the beginning of a lifelong interest in the natural world. We can only guess at the number of future biologists, botanists, chemists, and other scientists who have walked through Big Creek's doors over the years.

If you would like to support The Glacier Institute's educational mission, please see our membership opportunities or current projects listing.
