CAMP KINDLE
Camp Kindle offers a broad range of programs throughout the
year. Each program is unique and strives to meet the needs
of the community it is serving. Our summer camp sessions
are not just your typical traditional summer camp, although
traditional programming is incorporated. Camp Kindle
strives to better each individual campers creativity, self
assurance, leadership and character, while offering hope in
a non-threatening environment. Camp Kindle's campers and
staff experience the "best week of their lives", while at
Camp Kindle. Campers are either infected with HIV or have
an AIDS diagnosis, they may have an infected sibling,
parent or primary caregiver. Camper may also qualify if
they have lost a sibling, parent or primary caregiver from
this disease. Camp Kindle does not break up the family
unit. We offer this camp at no expense to the camper or
their family, this includes the cost of travel and/or other
necessities. Camp Kindle accepts applications year round.
Our camp staff are top notch and give 110% each day they
spend with the campers. These volunteers make the Camp
Kindle experience unforgettable!
