“I felt alone and overwhelmed...” - Anita, age nine

Growing up in poverty can leave children feeling invisible and isolated.

Children in situations like Anita’s can often miss out on the simple joys of childhood. While other children played and laughed together, Anita was caring for her younger brother and doing household chores. Her mum was busy working long hours to be able to provide enough for their family.

Every day, children like Anita carry burdens no child should have to bear.

A week of love, joy, and discovery

Thanks to supporters like you, Anita experienced something she never thought possible: a week at summer camp.

Camp is so much more than just fun, it gives hope and joy to children who need it most. Children feel seen, loved, and worthy of the best.

This summer, you can make that possible for another child.

“Her eyes started to shine...” - Arianna, Camp Coordinator

When Anita first arrived at summer camp, she was shy and hesitant. But as she felt loved and accepted her confidence grew. She played games. She swam in the sea. She sang, laughed, and learned. And she was overjoyed to receive the “Best Girl at Camp” award at the end of the week.

When she returned home her mum noticed a big difference. “After camp, Anita seems happier and more responsible. She’s grown in the way she talks and behaves.”

For many children, camp can be transformational, it can be healing, it can be the beginning of a sense of hope.
