We need YOUR support to continue our success in changing lives. “Children and adolescents with foster care experience are diagnosed with PTSD at twice the rate of US war veterans.” Our no-cost mentoring programs, with early intervention in a supportive environment, provide special healing. We ARE making a difference! Our campers continue to grow and flourish despite the adversity they face. The statistics on education alone show that 82% of foster youth involved with Camp Horizon programs graduate from high school, compared to 46% nationwide. Furthermore, 64% of our former campers enroll in college, compared to 20% of foster youth nationwide.
We are holding up to our mission of working to restore dignity and hope to children, teens and young adults who have been abused and neglected - empowering them to make good decisions and lead healthy, productive lives. Since 1982, Camp Horizon has helped campers believe they are children of promise.
Thank you for your continued support of Camp Horizon, our staff, our volunteers and most importantly our campers!
