 At Camp Wicosuta, one of the ways we teach campers about building COMMUNITY is by giving back. Our campers and staff participate in several charitable events over the summer designed to strengthen our Wicosuta community as well as the larger community in which we live. Instilling these values in our campers and staff is part of what makes Wicosuta special.
in support of Morry's Camp (www.morryscamp.org) Morry's Camp is a year-round youth development organization that provides to each child a multi-year commitment anchored by a superb residential summer camp experience. The children, for whom these experiences would not otherwise be available, benefit from a network of support and gain increased social skills, enhanced self-esteem, positive core values and a greater sense of personal responsibility. Each summer, Camp Wicosuta runs a Swim-A-Thon to raise money for Morry's Camp. Campers and staff swim laps and parents and friends donate money for each lap completed.  Dance Marathon benefiting Faulkner-Sagoff Breast Cancer Research Center (www.faulknerhospital.org/programs_sagoff_bdt_app.html) The Faulkner Breast Centre, located in the Belkin House at Faulkner Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts, is dedicated to providing the most up-to-date, comprehensive breast care for women, including active clinical research, high-quality treatment and patient education. The first of its kind in the country, the Faulkner Breast Centre has earned an outstanding reputation for its exceptional treatment of breast disease, compassion for patients and their families and focus on patient empowerment. The Annual Camp Wicosuta Dance Marathon benefits the Faulkner Breast Centre. Our older campers run the event from start to finish. They pick the theme, decorate our dining hall, and emcee. Campers and staff dance throughout the evening and raise money and awareness for breast cancer research while having a blast! |
