Camp Albrecht Acres is in the process of creating play stations along paved trails for campers to stop and play musical instruments. Camper will get the opportunity to play and hear music, stimulating their senses of touch and sound. As a bonus, they will get exercise while playing and walking the 2 mile path. We are thrilled that our grant will help Camp Albrecht Acres with this outstanding project.

3D Printer Towards STEM Development
Lourdes Academy of Oshkosh, Wisconsin was able to purchase a 3D printer for their new, growing Science Technology Engineering and Math program (STEM) through the Schoen Family Charitable Trust. With the help of the new 3D printer, the Lourdes Academy Middle School developed a Project Lead the Way (PLTW) curriculum where their students work hand-ons to gain true-to-life experience in STEM subjects; including computer science, engineering, and biomedical science. The board is delighted for their donation to go towards the development of STEM in secondary schools.
