A Message From Sarah Kasravi

Going into camp last year I did not know what to expect, I had heard great things about UniCamp from my good friend Yoyo (Roya), but my week at camp far exceeded all of my expectations. Regardless of the hours spent training, the physical and mental exhaustion of worrying about the well-being of these kids, and the constant fear of the lurking bear, I would gladly go through them again after witnessing how happy and eternally grateful these kids were. Yes, six ten year old girls come with a lot of sass and a lot of opinions can annoy you like no other, but I genuinely grew to love and worry about these girls like they were my own. The excitement in their eyes when they caught their first fish, seeing a few of them build the courage to sing or dance during the talent show, and hearing them express how they want to do camp again next year are a handful of the reasons why I have grown to be so passionate about UniCamp. Not only did working with these kids make me feel like a kid again, but it was an experience that put the important things in life into perspective. I realized that half of the things my ten-year old campers had been forced to go through in their short lifetime, I most likely will never have to experience. I could probably write a book about my magical experience at Camp River Glen, and who knows one day I just might, but for now I REALLY NEED YOUR HELP. I love everything about UniCamp, I really do, and I would love nothing more than to be given the opportunity to spend another week at the most magical place, meet even more incredible people, spread the Woodsey love, and of course not shower for another week. Please help me reach my fundraising goal with any amount you can donate, I will be eternally grateful for your donations and will gladly bake some sweet treats for you.
