The ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥ Daily Star Sportsmen’s Fund Send a Kid to Camp is proud to thank another 19 individuals, organizations and businesses for donating $2,090 to help send kids to camp.
Our goal is to raise $220,000 to help send up to 700 kids to camp. So far, we’ve received 1,491 donations totaling $192,327.
The ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥ Daily Star Sportsmen’s Fund raises money so children from low-income households and military families can attend overnight YMCA, Boy Scout and Girl Scout camps and Camp Tatiyee — for school-age children and older teens with special needs — at little or no cost to their families.
Since 1947, the ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥ Daily Star Sportsmen’s Fund has helped pay for 40,070 children to go to camp.
We’re one of the oldest 501c(3) charities in ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥ and one of the most efficient in our giving, with 98 cents of every dollar going to send kids to camp.
