Camp experience benefits youths

A 13-year-old girl enjoyed going to camp last summer on a Sun Camp Fund campership.

"She really enjoyed the experience," her foster mother says. The girl has done well in school and improved her grades dramatically this year, her foster mother says.

Sometimes simple things, such as toasting marshmallows and singing around the campfire and being around camp counselors who are positive role models, are the memories a child carries with her through life.

By joining other contributors to the Sun Camp Fund, you are making a difference in a child's life.
