Helping those who help others
 
There are many places during these economic times that need help. This one, About Us - Camp Prime Time,,,.....
Camp Prime Time - Campground - Yakima, WA - Wall | Facebook
is an organization that I am familiar with. They only have one full time employee, all other functions and needs are done by volunteers. I'm just saying, the monies are well spent for the betterment for the camp, not overhead.

They provide an outdoor experience for disabled and terminal kids and their families. They are coming up on their 25th year anniversary and are still trying to raise funds for the main lodge.

If you can take a look at the links and find it in your heart to help, it would be appreciated. They take PayPal, credit cards....etc.

Thanks,

I've done Habitat for Humanity builds, nice thing about that is you get to work along side of the ones getting the home, and they have to qualify, as well as maintain the home and then volunteer to help build other homes..

Our Track group also works Driving To Success & a few Boys & Girls Clubs..

Thanks Angela. Yes, that treehouse is very cool.

May your kindness and generosity be a light for others to follow.

They will provide you with a tax number as they are a non profit organization.

Thanks again, Mitch

If you can give, give what you can give.

It does not have to be here, it does not have to be money.

Giving where there is a need and giving with your time, is all that is needed and appreciated, anywhere.

You can't take time or money with you in the end.
