Brighten a child's life though summer camp

One 8-year-old boy doesn't get very excited about many things. But this year he would like to go to summer camp, and the idea lights up his eyes.

By going to camp, he says he can show those around him that he is old enough and responsible enough to listen and follow directions -- to do something fun.

Camp opens up a lot of doors for children who otherwise may not have the opportunity to get away from day to day life. By going to camp, children learn new challenges and make new friends. But not all children come from homes that can afford to send them.
