Funds raised from Helen’s 5K Run/Walk 2024 will support HKS’ Camp Helen Keller

About HKS' Camp Helen Keller (HKSB): 
HKSB is offering a 5 week summer camp to children ages 4-15 who are blind or low vision. We provide Free tuition and door to door transportation. The camp will offer opportunities for socialization and peer mentoring through an array of activities including accessible sports, science, tech class, crafts, games, music and dance, and community outings and more.

We bring an exciting, action packed program at Camp Helen Keller. We bolster confidence and unleash the talents and aspirations of the campers. HKSB fosters an inclusive environment for children who have vision loss. We find solutions to meet everyone’s unique accessibility needs that are not one-size-fits-all. 

The camp counselors are specially trained to adapt recreation and social activities to ensure each child’s experience is accessible. Camp memories are created along with lifetime friendships. The greatest part of it all is that campers across all ages discover their strengths and abilities! The campers' self-efficacy grows, "I Can Do It" attitudes are strengthened and engagement in sports and other recreation activities bolsters confidence and self-esteem. 

With your support and sponsorship, HKS will continue to this free camp to 50 amazing campers. 

Register now and HKNC will be well on the way to achieving its goal of raising $100,000!
