Camp sustains my grandchildren through the winter months somehow. Especially my grandson, who has the hardest time with life in the outside world."

"I just wanted to send a long overdue note to say thank you for saving my daughters this summer. They both came back completely in love with the experience, with renewed confidence and zeal. I'm so very grateful."

John Santiago is from New York City, and first came to camp at the age of 12. He attended camp for 9 years, became a CIT, then a Junior Counselor, then a Cabin Counselor. He returns regularly to support camp operations and is a long-time donor to HCF.

"Camp is my family. Camp has allowed me to be myself and not hold anything back with the fear of being judged. I will always love this community and am more than happy to pay it forward to help give the opportunity to a child who, like me, could not afford the experience."
