About Me

Firefighters Kids Camp A Path to RecoveryWANTED: Men and women willing to donate a week of their hard-earned vacation every year. Time to be spent without spouses or families. Must be willing to submit to interview, background check, and fingerprinting. Cound involve months of meetings, planning, and behind-the-scenes work. Living conditions at camp-rustic. Pay-none. Time-none. Benefits-incalculable.Who would answer such an ad-the dozens and dozens of volunteers who make up the team that put on Firefighters Kids Camp for young burn survivors every year. All participate without compensation of any kind. They arrive with boundless energy and leave a week later exhausted, grinning, and enthusiastically talking about next year's camp.Ask them why they do it and you'll get answers as varied as the volunteers. But a basic theme runs through all of their replies. " It feels good to know that what I do makes a difference in a child's life. Of course, it's a whole lot of fun, too!"There would be no Firefighters Kids Camp without these incredible, giving people. Heartfelt thanks and appreciation goes to those who make this camp experience possible for dozens of deserving children. It is their selflessness and dedication that helps these young burn survivors along the path to recovery.FIREFIGHTERS CAMP HELPS GIVE LITTLEST BURN SURVIVORS A SENCE OF NORMALCY NOBODY CARES ABOUT YOUR LOOKS AND SCARS

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

People who are kind and open hearted. These children need people like you and I to help send them to camp for a week. A week to be free from whispers and stares. A week to be a KID! So please help send a child to camp. Thank you. My run is put on every 1st Sundy in October. It's an open bike ride. If you are interested in the run or simply would like to donate please call Jaynie Wisdom at 209.931.8104. I would be happy to help you out, thank you.
