Build It.
Create safe, inspiring spaces for kids to learn and grow.
We’re transforming our facilities in Madras and Prineville—unlocking new classrooms and reaching more children in rural communities. These upgrades ensure families have access to high-quality, trauma-informed early childhood care, closer to home.More classrooms = more lives changed.
-
Grow it.
Invest in the people who make the mission possible.
Our staff are MountainStar’s heartbeat. By investing in workforce development, training, and well-being, we create stability—for our team and the families we walk alongside every day. Because when our staff thrive, so do the children they support.A strong, supported team = stronger families.
-
Nuture it.
Expand mental health care for children and families.
Every day, we support children who’ve experienced adversity. We're deepening our therapeutic model by embedding mental health specialists in classrooms and home visits—ensuring families receive the trauma-informed care they deserve.Mental health support = deeper healing, brighter futures.
Our Goal: $3,500,000
