2017 Camp

Camps are a FABULOUS tool to support and empower single parent families.

With your assistance, we can take 80 [or more] single parents, their youth and young children camping over the Auckland Anniversary long weekend and provide ALL our youth with 10-pin bowling & ALL our young children with a horse & pony activity.

Your contribution particularly assists larger families with 3, 4, 5 plus children who generally don’t attend camps or paid activities for the cost is multiplied. By paying children’s fees, ALL families pay the same cost – just the adult’s fees, and ALL children participate in activities making them ALL feel EQUAL.

Through camps and child activities, parents get a chance to think of themselves. No matter how they arrive (shattered, exhausted, stressed), they always leave empowered, with new friends to form their supportive network, tips, hope and energy.

Their youth and young children count down the sleeps till camp where they connect and reconnect with new and old friends. We work at keeping youth engaged with family, their goals & dreams and a surprise activity is helpful.

Your contribution also provides terrific family memories & these families are remarkable and very grateful for your kindness.
