The Hyland Hills Foundation is a 100% volunteer-run organization designed to provide needed assistance to the citizens of the Hyland Hills Park and Recreation District community, particularly children. It was formed by a small group of concerned residents as a Colorado nonprofit corporation in October of 1992. The goal of the Foundation then and now is to assist the Hyland Hills Park and Recreatio
n District in providing the very best recreational facilities to all persons, regardless of financial ability or background. The Mission of the Hyland Hills Foundation is to promote and support the recreational and cultural opportunities of the residents of the Hyland Hills Park and Recreation District. The Hyland Hills Foundation sponsors many free activities for the community, including the annual Hyland Hills Easter Egg Hunt, Putts for a Purpose, the Be-A-Fish learn to swim program, a yearly Missoula Children's Theater production, the annual Halloween Spooktacular and more. The signature Be-A-Fish Program has provided over 7,000 free lessons to needy children. The Foundation provides financial assistance for participation in Hyland Hills Park and Recreation District programs to children of families qualifying for free or reduced school lunch.
