One boy who wants to go to camp is generous with others. His mother says he makes up baskets and carries them in the car with him to give to homeless people when he sees them on the street.

Now he needs the generosity of others.

His mother says the boy has always asked about attending camp, but "we have never had the money to send him." She is asking for help from the Sun Summer Camp Fund.

The Camp Fund provides scholarships to camp for children who otherwise cannot go because of family finances. The Las Vegas Sun covers all administrative costs, so that all money given by donors goes directly to children's camp costs.

You can join recent donors to the fund:

Bonanza Beverage Co. Employees, William Goldberg Diamond Corp., Rosemary Czarnecki, W.G. Flangas, Charlotte Hill (in memory of Bernice Warner & Elizabeth Campbell), Rosemary Czarnecki, Jane Scott McCrorie, Roger C. Neveaux, W.G. Flangas (in memory of Ruthe Deskin) and Dale & Pamela Horton (in memory of Ruthe Deskin).
