The initiative will also provide free classroom resources aligned with Indiana learning standards, as well as on-site and virtual school programs across arts, sciences, and humanities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe announcement of the Field Trip Fund is the perfect way to celebrate the Children\u2019s Museum\u2019s 100th birthday! Indiana schools were instrumental to our founding back in 1925, and we are so proud of this step to increase field trip access for schools across the state,\u201d said Tyler Van Wyngarden, Grant Writer and Foundation Relations Officer at The Children\u2019s Museum of Indianapolis. \u201cAs Indiana schools continue to rebound from COVID-19, field trips and other immersive learning experiences are more important than ever. We\u2019re so proud to make these experiences more accessible and hopefully enable even more Miami County students to visit the Museum each year.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This grant was made possible through the generosity of donors to community funds at the Miami County Community Foundation. Right now, every $1 donated to a new or existing community fund in Miami County is matched with an additional $2, tripling the impact. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To learn more about supporting projects like this or applying for a future grant, visit www.nicf.org or contact Miami County Community Foundation Director of Development Cheryl Broyles at 765.470.1778.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"866\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/masterzradio.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Miami_stack-2-1-866x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-95279\" srcset=\"https:\/\/masterzradio.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Miami_stack-2-1-866x1024.jpg 866w, https:\/\/masterzradio.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Miami_stack-2-1-254x300.jpg 254w, https:\/\/masterzradio.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Miami_stack-2-1-768x908.jpg 768w, https:\/\/masterzradio.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Miami_stack-2-1-1300x1536.jpg 1300w, https:\/\/masterzradio.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Miami_stack-2-1.jpg 1650w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 866px) 100vw, 866px\" \/><\/figure>\n\r\n<script  src=\"https:\/\/\/pagead\/js\/?client=0531879237494766\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\r\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"0531879237494766\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"2870348528\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     ().push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MIAMI COUNTY, IN- The Miami County Community Foundation has awarded a $4,500 grant to The Children\u2019s Museum of Indianapolis, opening doors to new learning opportunities for local students through the Museum\u2019s newly established Field Trip Fund.\u201d Beginning in 2028, the Field Trip Fund will provide unlimited free field trips for all Miami County schools, in &#8230; <a title=\"Opening Doors to Learning: Miami County Community Foundation helps fund free field trips\" class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/masterzradio.net\/?p=95278\" aria-label=\"Read more about Opening Doors to Learning: Miami County Community Foundation helps fund free field trips\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-95278","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","rttpg_featured_image_url":null,"rttpg_author":{"display_name":"Wade Weaver","author_link":"https:\/\/masterzradio.net\/?author=3"},"rttpg_comment":0,"rttpg_category":"<a href=\"https:\/\/masterzradio.net\/?cat=1\" rel=\"category\">Uncategorized<\/a>","rttpg_excerpt":"MIAMI COUNTY, IN- The Miami County Community Foundation has awarded a $4,500 grant to The Children\u2019s Museum of Indianapolis, opening doors to new learning opportunities for local students through the Museum\u2019s newly established Field Trip Fund.\u201d Beginning in 2028, the Field Trip Fund will provide unlimited free field trips for all Miami County schools, in&hellip;","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/masterzradio.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/95278","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/masterzradio.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/masterzradio.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/masterzradio.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/masterzradio.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=95278"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/masterzradio.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/95278\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":95280,"href":"https:\/\/masterzradio.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/95278\/revisions\/95280"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/masterzradio.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=95278"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/masterzradio.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=95278"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/masterzradio.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=95278"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
