My children were very fortunate to attend Y childcare, after school, summer camp, residential camp and swim lessons. Eventually they even became camp counselors. At every step along the way they received outstanding care from extraordinary professionals who supported them in their development.
MANY CHILDREN ARE NOT AS FORTUNATE and that is why I feel so passionately about making Y summer camp available to all who want to attend. Summer camp helps children become more independent, mature, strong and emotionally resilient. At camp kids are curious, creative and cooperative. They challenge themselves. These are critical skills in our complex world.
Please join me this Y Day of Giving as we raise funds to ensure every child has an opportunity to experience Y camp programming, regardless of their financial circumstances. Thank you!
