Camping provides a boost to youths' social skills

A 10-year-old girl has asked to go to camp, but cannot afford the cost. She says she and her mother reunited recently after a separation, and both could use a break.

She is looking for the boost in self-esteem and training in social skills that camp provides. A little summer fun wouldn't hurt, either.

You can help this girl and others like her to go to camp by joining these recent contributors to the Sun Camp Fund. The fund provides scholarships for disadvantaged children to attend summer camp.
