Children's Association For Maximum Potential (CAMP)

CAMP's Mission is to strengthen and inspire individuals with special needs and those who care for them through Recreation, Respite and Education. We achieve our mission through our recreational camping program, respite programs and educational opportunities for our volunteers.

History:
Children's Association for Maximum Potential is a non-profit corporation established in 1979 to provide a wide range of recreational, respite and training services for individuals with disabilities and their families. Central to each of CAMP's programs is the provision of medical support. This ensures that every person, regardless of the degree of their medical needs, will be able to participate in all programs. Every activity is adapted so that all campers can participate and be successful.

Overall Experience Experience rating

Volunteering at Camp CAMP has changed my life, my college major, and my outlook on life.

I have been with this organization for the past 5 years and it has done nothing but change my life for the better. I have gained awesome friends and great references for college, jobs, and scholarships. The kids really make the experience that much better. I love them dearly and keep in touch with some of them outside of camp. I would reccommend this opportunity to anyone who has heart, patience, drive, and determination.

Perfect

I volunteered for Camp Camp, and loved it! The children are wonderful. What I gained: Warm fuzzies; a lot of love; the joy of seeing disabled children having the time of their lives.
