Please help preserve the placement of two very busy children with their grandparents by providing the children the ability to attend YMCA day camp for the next 4 weeks until school begins. The children attended summer school, but it has now ended resulting in the children having limited peer interaction and increased fighting in the home. Their grandfather just had an extended stay in the hospital and is still recovering which has made it very difficult for grandparents to plan and participate in activities with the kids. A consistent routine is crucial to keeping the children stable and safe between now and the start of the school year.
