I notice some donations are made "in memory of" some individual. I made mine this year in memory of Camp Kehonka. I may do another in memory of Camp Treasure Island. Both very special places in my heart. Just wanted to pass this on, in case others have similar memories.
YMCA Camp Huckins has a scholarship fund that pays for girls who otherwise wouldn't have such a wonderful opportunity. It's one of the more generous camp scholarship programs in the region.

2015 Details:
  • Total of summer camp scholarship funds awarded: $68,653
  • Summer campers who received scholarship awards: 110
  • New Hampshire recipients: 56
  • States award recipients reside in: New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Vermont, Maine, Connecticut, Rhode Island, California, Georgia

So...if you're so inclined...you can donate here.
