Anyone who has been to camp knows that camp changes lives. It's as simple as that. It's a place of peace, a tranquil refuge from the streets of New York City. For hundreds of kids it's the only place they can let their hair down, breath, laugh and learn to have faith in people, in the world and in themselves.

So why are we raising money? Due to some changes with Camp Herrlichs funders, and in light of recent events in the area, we are going to be about 31 camperships short for our New York City children in Summer 2013.

So what is our challenge? Raise the $17,050.00 USD to cover the cost of sending those 31 kids to Camp. Deadline for fundraising is February 22nd, 2013.

Please help us help the children.
