For more than 25 years, the Triangle Community Foundation has expertly aligned the generosity of area philanthropists with the needs of our community. The impact of these efforts is exemplified through the Send a Kid to Camp Program through which thousands of Triangle-area children have been afforded the opportunity to step away of their often difficult lives and into the carefree adolescence they deserve, if only for a short while. We are inspired by, grateful for and value the work of the Triangle Community Foundation. We proudly support Send a Kid to Camp and the foundation's overall efforts to make our region a better place.

Send A Kid To Camp enables children ages 5-17 living in Chatham, Durham, Orange, and Wake Counties to attend summer camp. These children may be disabled, living in foster care, or from a family unable to afford camp. YOU can give these children a summer experience to remember by making a gift or getting involved. Since the program’s inception in 1984 over 6,500 children from across the Triangle region have benefited from Send A Kid To Camp.

Triangle Community Foundation partners with local camps to provide scholarships to children through Send A Kid To Camp. Children are then selected to participate by our camp partners. Triangle Community Foundation reaches out to donors like you to help send a kid to camp. Your gift can support children across the Triangle or you can sponsor kids in a certain county.
We are excited to announce our 2010 Send A Kid To Camp Partners:
