What a GREAT Summer Season at Camp for All! Thank you to EVERYONE who made it possible...
Happy (almost!) End of Summer! We hope everyone had a very safe and Happy Labor Day Weekend! We also wanted to take some time to thank all of our many supporters, funders, volunteers and summer staff for making this Camp for All Season REALLY and truly shine: From friends like Melanie Wizan -who donated her wonderful books for our backpacks, to friends like Margaret Hauptman, Adam Levine, Bob Olive, Margaret Hauptman, Mark Kramer, Amy Madigan and SO many other beautiful friends who donated to our Summer Camp for All Drive! The families of David Weinstein, whom we tragically lost this year, raised over $5,000 in memorial donations in his honor, which was so incredibly helpful, and well-utilized this season (thank you so much again to Ellen Power, Mark & Cha-Cha Weinstein and Diane Weinstein for facilitating this so beautifully) Immense thanks goes out to funders and friends like the Oder Family, Carrie Estelle Doheny Foundation, Rags for Riches, Dwight Stuart Youth Fund, the City of Malibu and our supporters on the Malibu City Council, the Lawrence Fdn and Costco-and 2 amazing, anonymous angels who supported Camp for All-we are SO grateful to you! Special shout-outs to the amazing folks at King Gillette Ranch , Lola and her volunteers Create Now Arts for their time and great art supplies & Robyn and the team at the Leo Carillo Junior Lifeguards for just being incredibly awesome!
