Thank You for Helping Us Reach for the Stars! 🌠


We are thrilled to share the incredible news! Our mission was to raise $18,000 throughout the holiday season to fuel our Camp 2025 adventuresβ€”and because of your generosity, we surpassed that goal! πŸš€


Through World AIDS Day and the Holiday Appeal, we raised an astounding $23,715.00. This success would not have been possible without the support of the generous donors listed below.
