“Children are our future and any program that is focused on helping children is an immediate priority. Camp HOPE takes inner-city, less privileged kids, who come from very hostile family environments and gives them the opportunity to experience the natural outdoors in a safe environment. I believe the environment you are raised in has a large part in shaping your future. The children that experience Camp HOPE have not had the advantages and experiences my own children have had. My goal is to help ensure that as many children as possible can experience the quality impacts many of us had growing up. If this experience helps shape a more positive experience for just one child a year, it is an awesome success.”
