Gift of Camp

Help Kids shine bright this summer

For many kids, camp is not an option. Many families in HRM need help through subsidization to give their kids a safe place to learn and grow through the summer. When you give the gift of camp, you give a camper a better appreciation for the natural world, their community, and best of all – themselves.

The Gift of Camp campaign, a collaboration among 11 YMCA Associations, aims to send 1,300 children across Atlantic Canada to camp this summer.
