This summer, 45 boys are counting on us. We're counting on you.

For the boys of Central Brooklyn, summer can go one of two ways. It can be seven empty weeks on a hot block — or it can be the summer that changes everything.

At The B.R.O. Experience Foundation, we make sure it's the second one. Our Little BRO Summer Camp gives our youngest brothers — boys ages 8 to 12 — seven full weeks of free, Monday-through-Friday enrichment: mentorship, learning, play, brotherhood, and a safe place to simply be a kid. No cost to a single family.

This year, we built that summer around a major gift we were counting on. That gift fell through, and the funding won't reach us until 2027.

Here's what we decided: the boys don't wait until 2027.

We are not canceling camp. We are not cutting it in half. We are turning to the community that raised us and asking you to help close the gap — so all 45 boys, and all 45 families, get the summer we promised them.

Where your gift goes

Every dollar goes straight to the summer experience — meals, materials, trips, facilitators, and the doors staying open at BRO Space.

$20 keeps a boy moving toward camp
$63 sends a boy for one full day
$314 covers a full week for one boy
$2,200 sponsors an entire scholarship — one boy, one family, all seven weeks

Our goal is to support — 45 full families. Every gift, at every size, gets us closer.

45 Boys, One Summer: The Little BRO Camp Fund

Some of the funding fell through. The summer won't.
