Thanks to Send A Kid To Camp for helping us send many deserving children to camp. We are no longer accepting scholarship applications for 2013.

Send A Kid To Camp enables children ages 5–17 living in difficult circumstances from Chatham, Durham, Orange and Wake counties to attend summer camp! These children may be disabled, living in foster care, or from a family unable to afford camp. YOU can give these children a summer experience to remember by making a gift or getting involved.

Many deserving youth from Wake County have attended 4-H Camp through the Send a Kid To Camp program.
