On April 25, we hosted a groundbreaking ceremony for the new Thompson Center! Joined by over 300 guests, we celebrated this momentous occasion with remarks from leadership of the Thompson Center,  Thompson Foundation, and University of Missouri. Thompson Center parent Chris Moss shared about the Thompson Center’s tremendous impact on his 10-year-old son Asa, and said, “The hope and the ability of the Thompson Center to touch more lives as the result of the expansion is the whole reason why I think all of us is here today.”

Media covered the event, including KOMU, KMIZ, KRCG, Columbia Daily Tribune, and Columbia Missourian. Learn more about our campaign to expand the Thompson Center’s extraordinary services here.
