“Our daughter told us when she came home from Camp Quest Texas that it was the first time in her life that she felt completely comfortable and honest around kids her own age. She said that the experience was like drawing a deep breath for the first time.”
That’s why we’re doing this. SEND ALL THE CHILDREN!
So – I’m going to keep asking for donations for CampQuest Texas. AronRa is still in the lead, but neither of us have reached the goal.

The curious thing is that I’ve had more individual donors, but Aron has had more big donors. You don’t need to donate $500 (though please do, if you’re able). Donate $1, $5, $10…
Are you really going to let me lose this? Worse…are you going to let the kids lose?!
UPDATE: So, thanks to you folks, I’ve managed to hit the mark first…but don’t stop donating. We need to make the camp, bigger, and better!

There, you should be pretty close to Aron now
.
Hopefully more people will donate for a close finish and help more kids win.

I’ll donate if I’m allowed to attend the camp.

For a donation of about $500, you can attend for a whole week! It’s a bargain!

“Children age 8 to 18 are welcome to attend.”
I’m not gonna donate money to a place that discriminates.
:…(
That’s a crying face.

When I first heard about this camp, I was like “Awesome, I wanna go!” And then I looked on the website and saw that sentence. “Children age 8 to 18 are welcome to attend.”
