Story
This family is currently experiencing a very difficult time. One of the children accidentally shot himself and remains in critical condition at the hospital. The older siblings were placed with the maternal aunt due to concerns related to lack of supervision, as all of the children were at home when the incident occurred.
At this time, one child qualifies for daycare, but the other two older siblings are at home full-time with the aunt. The caregiver is requesting assistance in enrolling the children in BMCC Summer Camp to provide them with structure, positive engagement, and emotional relief following the traumatic event. This would also offer the caregiver some relief and support as she adjusts to caring for all of the children.
The family does not have the financial resources to cover the weekly camp fees. They are requesting support to help the children attend BMCC Summer Camp as a short-term intervention to promote healing and stability during this crisis.
The camp is open until 08/2025

I would be truly grateful if you could keep this child and his family in your thoughts and prayers during this heartbreaking time.
