Introducing Our 2025 Park Side Partners in Missoula
At Park Side, we believe in the power of community, and through our Park Side Partner Program, we’ve been honored to support over 70 nonprofits, sharing nearly $400,000 over the past 14 years. Each year, we partner with incredible organizations that make a lasting impact in Missoula and the Flathead Valley. We are thrilled to introduce our 2025 Park Side Partners in Missoula: Missoula Children’s Theatre, Missoula Butterfly House & Insectarium, and Watershed Education Network. These organizations are dedicated to education, creativity, and environmental stewardship—values that align perfectly with our mission to support vibrant, thriving communities.
