Summertime in the city can be challenging for many low-income families. With school out, finding safe, affordable, and enriching activities for children and teens becomes a top priority — and a major source of stress. That’s why Lend A Hand Society proudly supports local summer camps by providing scholarships to families who need them most.
Massachusetts remains one of the most expensive states for childcare, and the rising cost of living continues to put pressure on household budgets. For many parents, camp is out of reach financially, even though it can make a big difference in their children’s lives.
Summer camps offer more than just a way to stay busy. They give kids a chance to explore nature, make new friends, try new activities, and gain confidence in a safe, supportive environment. For parents, camp means peace of mind and the ability to keep working during the summer months.
Our Campership program is one of the ways LAH helps ease this seasonal burden for families in the Greater Boston area.
Please consider giving to the LAH Campership Campaign today. Your donation can help send more kids to camp and make this summer one to remember.
