Let's rewrite the script together
The world is plenty messed up, and too often that's all our kids see. What they don't see enough, is how awesome the world is. You can change that. Your gift will give kids a chance to build understanding, compassion, and connection. Your gift sets the next generation up to reimagine our world through empathy, self-direction, and possibility. Let's rewrite the script on what is possible.

You have no idea the impact you can have with just a quick chat.

"I can't say enough about Stomping Ground. My 8yo son went this summer. It was his first overnight Camp ever. We were all anxious and signed him only for one week, and mentally ready to go pick him up early in case he wanted to come back.
I remember receiving a call from one of the directors two days after Camp started. I thought: my son is homesick and they are calling to go and pick him!
Instead of that, he asked to call home to beg if he can stay longer! He was having so much fun and enjoying himself."
