A success story
Meet Derek
You see that guy up there yelling at the top of his lungs? That’s Derek.
Around here, he’s known as our “head cheerleader.” Almost a decade ago, he came to Camp Amy Molson as a first-time camper.
Back then, he struggled with a learning disability and issues with his home life. He had no idea what it was like to canoe, hunt for frogs, or plant vegetables in a real garden. At Camp Amy Molson, he discovered lush green foliage instead of the cement streets and apartment buildings of his tough Lachine neighbourhood. He made friendships, connected with people, and found self-confidence.
Derek is now one of our Camp Leaders. And he is just one of our success stories. Many children come to Camp Amy Molson to learn that life holds extraordinary opportunities, no matter what their abilities, no matter what their background, and no matter what path other people say their life is supposed to take.
For example, Derek continues to help Camp Amy Molson not only as a staff member but as a donor.
Please join Derek in giving to Camp Amy Molson and experience the same pride that we all feel in teaching kids the essential skills they need to transform their lives.
Your donation to Camp Amy Molson goes towards the $250 we need to subsidize the stay of each camper. In other words, your donation helps us keep the lights on, the cupboards stocked and our kids learning!
Any donation you give helps us immensely and ensures our campers can grow up to make an impact on our entire community.
Thank you so much for donating!
