HomeFront Summer Camp is More Than Just Fun

Children in the crisis of homelessness or living with the stress of deep poverty need constant support to succeed in school. HomeFront’s summer camps provide these children safe, supervised activities, social and intellectual development and an enriching schedule of field trips designed to motivate their natural curiosity.

A recent study in the book “Outliers: The Story of Success” by Malcolm Gladwell stresses the importance of summer for the development of school age children.

“Poor kids may out-learn other kids during the school year. But during the summer they fall far behind. There is no money to send them to summer camp. They’re not getting driven by their mom to special classes, and there aren’t any books lying around.” Without developmental camp, they fall far behind the average kids.”

HomeFront provides over 65 of our area’s poorest kids with a high quality, age-appropriate summer camp experience at several locations. It is part of our commitment to give these children the tools and confidence they need to break the cycle of poverty.

Please, give as much as you can.
