Will you RIDE with Camp Fire?
In 2021, the North Texas Giving Day community came together to help Camp Fire First Texas purchase a much-needed bus to provide transportation for afterschool and Teens in Action students.
THANK YOU!
Camp Fire programs now serve more students than ever, and in order to provide a sustained level of exceptional support, an additional vehicle is needed.
You can help!
By making a gift on North Texas Giving Day, you will help Camp Fire expand the fleet by adding a multi-purpose vehicle, to allow more Camp Fire youth to go on field trips, college tours, and social service engagement opportunities. These valuable experiences:
🧑✈️Introduce youth to career possibilities by visiting multiple types of businesses, including aviation, beauty services, health sciences, and science/research.
🎣Leverage the impact of the outdoor environment on the brain to educate and connect children and teens to each other and the world around them.
🎓Expose teens to a variety of post-secondary education opportunities with tours of universities, colleges, and vocation-technical schools and programs.
🦾Reinforce S.T.E.A.M. education with field trips that provide hands-on opportunities to view and make art, gaze at stars in a planetarium, learn how a working farm is run, build and tinker with Snapology and robotics, and much more.
🍎Instill a sense of community and good citizenship with social service engagement projects like picking up trash along the Trinity River, filling boxes at the food bank, and meeting a Texas State Representative.
