Widow needs help sending kids to camp

Wednesday, July 21, 1999 | 11:38 a.m.

Perez and his brother would like to go to summer camp.

However, their father died, leaving them in the hands of their working mother, who can't afford to support their extra-curricular activities or provide recreational opportunities.

And with no father at home they have very little positive interaction with male role models, their mother said. Their mother would like to see her children go to camp but can't afford to send them.

By sending donations to the Sun Camp fund, you can help children like Perez and his brother have an opportunity to go to camp.
