CAMPS FOR KIDS

THE CAMPS FOR KIDS MISSION:
Camps For Kids works to ensure that no Kansas City area child will be turned away from summer camp because of low income or physical or developmental disability.
The organization was founded by Marjorie Powell Allen in 1981 after the Federal government discontinued a program providing summer camp to children with disabilities or financial need at no cost to their families. Camps For Kids actively seeks contributions from foundations, corporations, and individuals, which are utilized to supplement dedicated funds for camps receive between April 1 and July 31 annually.
