In cooperation with the Poudre learning Center Board of Directors and staff, the Poudre Learning Center Foundations (PLCF) exists to recommend, promote and encourage community support for excellence in outdoor, experiential learning and education, and to provide funding for land stewardship, infrastructure projects and educational programming at the Poudre Learning Center (PLC). The PLCF was founded in 2015 to oversee fundraising efforts, and to establish an endowment to fund programming and site management for the PLC.
Founded in 1995, the Poudre Learning Center is owned and operated by Greeley-Evans School District 6. The PLC’s vision and mission Statement is: “To awaken a sense of wonder and inspire environmental stewardship and citizenship by educating K-12 students through outdoor experiences and inquiry based learning.” Prior to the Covid-19 Pandemic, the PLC campus hosted over 10,000 student visits annually. The PLC hosted around 5,000 this past year, and has expanded programs and infrastructure to expand services, anticipating 10,000+ students in 2023-2024. Additionally, countless residents and visitors use our campus to walk our trails, fish the pond, observe wildlife and find fulfillment and a sense of wellbeing in the great outdoors. PLC’s open space also furnishes essential habitat for plants and wildlife throughout the year, in an area quickly changing due to development, with an incomparable setting and spectacular views of the Front Range and the Cache la Poudre River Watershed.
