YMCA Camp Hi-Rock's Strong Kids Campaign

Make a donation online at: ymcastrongkids.org

Every summer, hundreds of children experience the magic of Camp Hi-Rock. If you have been to camp or participated in some of Camp Hi-Rock's efforts, you already understand what we mean when we refer to that magic. Many of the children who experience that magic each summer would not be able to do so without generous support from people like you who contribute to our Strong Kids Campaign.
Gifts to the Campaign make it possible for children who could not otherwise afford to participate to live as part of the Hi-Rock community, and to find their "home away from home." Camp Hi-Rock is a special place at the top of a mountain where socio-economic barriers are broken down, where children build positive memories that will sustain them for a lifetime, and where they have experiences that will leave an indelible mark on their character.
Please consider making a tax-deductible contribution to this tradition of diversity and community. All of the funds raised through this campaign will go directly toward financial assistance for campers and overall improvement of our camp programs. We follow an Open Door Policy and strongly believe that no child should be turned away from a camp experience due to an inability to pay.

Thank you for helping us ensure that no child is denied the opportunity to have a life-changing experience at YMCA Camp Hi-Rock.
