The Thomas Moore School It is a private non-profit school that serves children in the Paradise Valley here in Montana. This is a very rural area, so it is far away from bigger cities with public school and even further on cold snowy days. Many children who live in this area would have to travel hours to get to a public school. This school is very small, about 25 children grades K-12, and because they are not funded by government money, they are often lacking many of the tools necessary for the education of these children.
The Real Gift Foundation: It is dedicated to providing the necessary aid and assistance to, and for, children of homeless families so that they may better handle the challenges their lives bring and to give them the ability to face the future with hope, anticipation and optimism.

This mission is realized through several facets including providing student scholarships that make this unique and highly successful education available to the widest possible range of students. We also provide teacher training scholarships, internships for teachers working towards their Montessori certification and share our beautiful facility for teacher training courses and workshops for parents and the community that are free and open to the public. Our students also participate in community service projects each year for the local food bank, humane society and other disaster relief efforts.
