All proceeds are spent on the camp and its programming.

Impact:

We provide an environment that offers support and self-esteem building and socialization that these children/young adults do not otherwise have access to. Impact of camp studies prove that camp helps to strengthen the confidence and self-esteem of children and your support will give these very special children life-altering experiences that cannot be put into words. As a testament to the impact the camp has on these young souls, most return year after year to relive experiences they can get nowhere else.
