Send A Kid To Camp 2008
Help us reach our 2008 Goal of $185,000 to Send 350 Kids to Camp

A Gift that Changes Lives
Join Triangle Community Foundation in helping children have a summer experience to remember!  Send A Kid To Camp enables children ages 5-17 living in Chatham, Durham, Orange, and Wake Counties to attend summer camp.  These children may be disabled, living in foster care, or from a family unable to afford camp.  Many have resigned themselves to spending a summer behind closed doors because it is too dangerous to play outside in their neighborhoods.  YOU can bring these children out of their isolated situations and into the "sunshine" of summer camp by making a gift or getting involved.   

How it works
Each year our parnering organizations recommend children for the Send A Kid To Camp program.  They work with each child to choose a camp that will meet their interests and needs.  Triangle Community Foundation reaches out to donors like you to help pay for camp costs.  Your gift can support children across the Triangle or you can sponsor kids in a certain county.Click here for fundraising ideas.
