The generous support of individuals, schools, religious, and civic organizations make the lives of our campers a bit easier through the donation of everyday items that are often taken for granted.

Experiencing homelessness should not keep children from the benefits of sleepaway camp, from helping to stem the dreaded summer learning loss to making new friends and gaining confidence.

You can help by getting involved in a number of ways, such as:

  • Holding an in-kind donation drive at your company
  • Donating gift cards for local stores near camp: Walmart, Target, Home Depot, Burlington, Marshalls, BJs
  • Donating items from our Wish List

Before sending donated items, please email GetInvolved@HFHnyc.org to inquire about our current camper needs.
