2011 Winter: Comfort Zone Camp and Semper Fi Fund Kids Camp and Mentor Program

Funding from our 9th Annual Memorial, "In Silent Memory and Reflection" campaign, went to two very important nonprofit camps for kids who are faced with unique situations. Comfort Zone Camp is a bereavement camp that transforms the lives of children who have experienced the death of a parent, sibling, or primary caregiver. It includes confidence-building programs and age-based support groups that break the emotional isolation grief often brings. The Semper Fi Fund Kids Camp and Mentor Program bring hope to the children of injured service members through unique activities and challenges. The stress experienced by the child of an injured service member is sometimes overlooked. The child must handle challenges and adversities that someone their age should not have to face alone. The bonding of youth with a mentor serves as the focal point for follow-up support during the school year. Both programs are free to eligible campers and our donation of $2,500.00 to each camp assists with attendance costs.

2011 Late Spring: Playspace for Cape Cod Homeless Children

On May 12, 2011, through the Horizons for Homeless Children Playspace program, we funded a recreational and educational space at the Angel House homeless shelter in Hyannis (Cape Cod) to serve the needs of preschool-aged homeless children. This is a project that is simple, yet the need is vital and together we have made a big difference in their lives. Horizons for Homeless Children is the leader in Massachusetts and the nation in providing care for young children whose lives have been shattered by homelessness. Playspaces come equipped with libraries, building blocks, art supplies, and more. They are staffed by trained volunteers known as Playspace Activity Leaders (PALs) who supervise and engage the children in fun, educational play, an overlooked need for children who have been innocently affected by their family's economic circumstances.
