BATESVILLE, IN — A $5,000 check from Cierra’s Club was recently presented to Kids Discovery Factory.
Founded in 2011 following the death of Cierra Adams from a heroin overdose, Cierra’s Club has provided safe entertainment choices for teens that do not include drugs or alcohol.
Fear Factory was Cierra’s Club’s main fundraising event.
“Karen Adams, Cierra’s mother, wants children in our community to have safe, drug-free activities. Kids Discovery Factory will provide a safe environment where children can have fun while learning at the same time. And we wanted to help them to be successful in their mission,” said Cierra’s Club co-founding member Mary Ellen Rippe.
Kids Discovery Factory believes in the value of experiential learning. Through STEAM-based educational play, children discover creativity, resilience, self-regulation, communication, and collaboration.
“This is a win-win for Karen and our community,” said Cierra’s Club co-founding member Bill Flannery.
