The Arizona Daily Starβs Sportsmenβs Fund Send a Kid to Camp program raises money so children from low-income households and military families can attend overnight YMCA, Boy Scout and Girl Scout camps for little or no cost to their families.
We are raising $180,000 to send 670 kids to summer camp. So far this year, weβve received 747 donations totaling $82,058. Weβre almost halfway to our goal.
Since 1947, the Arizona Daily Star Sportsmenβs Fund has helped pay for 37,907 children to go to camp. It is one of the oldest 501c(3) charities in Arizona. Your contribution qualifies for the Arizona tax credit of up to $400 for donations to qualifying charities.
