Again, we are using Firstgiving.com to assist us with on-line fundraising.
Check out our event page at www.firstgiving.com/spinforpattisons for more
information and to see who participated. Last year our campers got involved and worked together as a team to
raise over $10,000.
Just to give you an idea of how much it costs and how much you can still
help, $185 will pay for a child to attend our summer therapy program for one day. $925 pays for one week.
$2100 pays for a child to attend 5 weeks of camp. This is a program where children receive DAILY physical,
occupational and speech therapies. They are engaged in FUN and educational activities and participate in the
communty around them by going on twice weekly field trips. The adult to camper ratio is generally 1 adult to
2 children in order to ensure safety. So when you look at the staffing, the activities, the supplies and the
benefit to these children and the community, it is a BARGAIN!
