A Message From Jennyann Gallo

Hello!!!! First off I would like to thank you for clicking on my link as you consider contributing to my fundraising efforts for this years UniCamp session 2, which focuses on College Readiness and Retention!! UniCamp takes low-income youth out of the city and brings them to the woods for a week long outdoor summer camp where they are challenged and encouraged to reach their full potential and goals that may be hindered within their everyday experiences and environment. If you know me, you know that I am heavily involved in education and empowering marginalized youth and UniCamp is another way that I am able successfully do this. My session focuses on College Readiness and Retention which is another passion of mine. I believe that every child can go to college no matter their background. It is an unfortunate fact that low-income youth face many hindering obstacles that result in the increased possibility of them not being college eligible. By providing them with the opportunity of camps like UniCamp, the chances of them succeeding can dramatically increase. Unfortunately, like most programs, UniCamp included, facilities and resources cost money. Knowing that there would be no way for these low-income families to pay for UniCamp in full, I am fundraising money to send a child to this camp so that they will have the opportunity to attend. I realize that not everyone has the financial means to support me in this effort to create equitable opportunity for all disadvantaged youth; however, please remember that even the smallest contribution makes a difference! Asking for money makes me uncomfortable but giving these youth an opportunity of a lifetime is a more important cause. I appreciate each and every donation and if you are unable to make a contribution at the moment, that is okay! My only hope is that when you have a few extra dollars to spare in the near future, you will keep me in mind and consider donating it to this amazing cause. I love you all and thank you!!
