Why Your Help Matters
Why Your Help Matters
At MELS, we’re committed to giving our students the full benefits of an expeditionary learning experience—where education goes beyond the classroom and into the real world.
Take our Outward Bound trips, for example—powerful, transformative experiences that can be costly to run. And with startup grants no longer available to support these opportunities, we need our community more than ever. Your gift(s) bridges budget gaps and keeps students thriving at MELS.
