A Message From Tanya "T-Rex" Ortiz
Hey y'all, I'm comin' at you live in my second year as a UniCamp counselor!
Every year UniCamp volunteers make time in their Spring schedules to fundraise enough money to send underprivileged kids from the Greater Los Angeles area to camp for a week during the summer. While something like this would normally cost around $600 (holy moly!), the money we raise subsidizes that cost so that campers only have to pay $99! This year my goal is to raise $480 to be able to send just one kid up to camp so please please help me out.
I know from personal experience that this is an absolutely fantastic cause, as I was a camper about 6 years ago when I was in high school. I can honestly say that I made some of the best memories of my life those summers, and have made even more now as a counselor. UniCamp allows these kids to escape all the stressors of reality for one week, and takes them back inspired to be better people for years after.
