In response to a destructive fire at the Kilbuck school facility in November 2015, the Lower Kuskokwim School District established an emergency fund with BCSF to benefit the Kuskokwim Learning Academy (KLA) and Ayaprun Elitnaurvik schools. Named the Quyurramta Fund, or “All of Us Together,” this emergency fund is dedicated to fire relief needs—both for emergent needs and for efforts to re-establish the schools. The fund assists in managing contributions from individual donors and local fundraising efforts, as well as corporate and philanthropic contributions.
Areas of the facility that served both Ayaprun Elitnaurvik and KLA were heavily damaged in the fire and the schools were temporarily relocated to other buildings in town. With incredible support from the community in the aftermath of the fire, both schools resumed classes as planned in Spring 2016.
