It is incredibly difficult to be a kid in 2020. That's why I am fundraising for Camp Fire Columbia and Camp Namanu. We help youth find their spark, lift their voice, and discover who they are.
Camp Fire Columbia has been the stomping ground for playful exploration since 1910 and has served thousands of children and youth for the last 97 years at Camp Namanu and over twenty years in partnership with schools through our high-quality child care services, and teen mentorship programs.
This year, due to COVID-19, we were faced with the first-ever cancellation of summer camp and before and after school programming, drastically shifting how we show up for our youth. Due to cancelled programming and loss of revenue we are facing a $110,000 deficit that hurts our ability to support youth with distance learning, mentorship, and the transformative experience of Camp Namanu resident camp.
