KIC has been very instrumental in allowing many children to attend Camp Kennebec. Without their help and support several of our campers would never have had the opportunity to experience camp. Through the kindness, support and generosity of KIC, many campers have been able to know what it’s like to experience the great outdoors, get up on water-skis for the first time, ride a horse, go on an overnight camping trip, make friends and so much more. Every child should have the opportunity to attend summer camp and I am extremely grateful to KIC for the opportunities they have helped provide to the campers of Camp Kennebec. The support of KIC means so much to me personally as I have been able to witness firsthand how much our campers gain from their time at camp. Seeing the kids leave camp having grown socially, emotionally and with a smile on their face makes me very happy and proud. Thank you KIC for all you do to help kids enjoy an experience of a lifetime!!

Camp Kodiak is a residential summer camp for children & teens with and
without Learning Disabilities, NLD, ADHD and Asperger Syndrome. Because of
our 2-to-1 ratio, professional staff and specialized programs, our fees need
to be quite substantial to cover our costs. We do what we can to help, but
every year we have to turn away deserving campers whose parents are unable
to pay our fees. We really appreciate the assistance provided to these
families by Kids in Camp.
Every year at YWCA Camp Tapawingo, we have many conversations with parents who would desperately love to be able to send their daughter to camp. I talked to one parent today who expressed it better than I can:” I want to be able to provide my daughter with one thing that makes her feel good when so much in her life is sad.”
It was such a privilege for me to be able to make the phone call last spring to another parent and say that we had some funding to help Sydney go to camp. The relief in her mother’s voice was very real. The experience Sydney had was important not just at the time but as a talisman all year – to hold on to her memories and look with anticipation to another summer of fun and being a kid.
Thank you to Kids In Camp in helping us provide this extraordinary experience to kids who just need time to be a kid, to feel good about themselves and to stretch their wings.
