 ponsors
play a critical role in guiding a child and family through
the application process, assisting award recipients
in preparing for camp, and helping the Foundation
with follow-up after camp.
There
is no financial requirement to be a sponsor; just a
desire to assist a child. We will provide the tools
and support to make it easy. Many sponsors reflect on
what a rewarding experience it is.
