Village Church Supports SmartLab at Operation Breakthrough

Written by Bill Laurienti

Operation Breakthrough serves at-risk youth in downtown Kansas City, MO. Their mission is “to provide a safe, loving and educational environment for children in poverty and to empower their families through advocacy, emergency aid and education.”

To support this mission, Village Church helped fund a SmartLab STEM program at Operation Breakthrough. We are proud to partner with Operation Breakthrough and are grateful to Village Church for its support of STEM education for Kansas City youth.
