Starting Life on the Right Foot – ALPS of Missoula raises the bar with its support of the Missoula Education Foundation

"Many of you will never have heard of ALPS https://www.alpsnet.com/ . We’re a pretty quiet company with business all over the world and deep roots in Missoula. We owe our existence to the lawyers and people of Montana and maintain a strong commitment to supporting all the communities where we do business; it’s a big world so we stay busy.

A few years ago when Dr. Apostle kicked off the "Graduation Matters" campaign, we started thinking about ways to get involved. It’s easy to write a check to the school district, but that wasn’t enough. ALPS wanted to make a lasting contribution that could actually help prove that graduation does matter. So we approached the Missoula Education Foundation http://missoulaeducationfoundation.com with the concept of an endowment that would provide scholarships for struggling students who actually tough it out and graduate despite the many hurdles they face.

ALPS believes every student deserves a step up to be able to gain skills to be successful in life. Beyond Graduation is not just about scholarships to four year institutions, it’s about meeting the student’s where they are and helping them get the needed training to be successful at whatever they choose to do with their lives.
