Girls' Summer Camp

IVE Girls' Summer Camp 2010 is a five day event held for girls from the ages 10-17 in Upstate New York.  The majority of the girls come from underprivileged homes from inner city neighborhoods including East New York (Brooklyn), East Harlem and North Philadelphia. It is our goal to educate the girls through fun and faith-filled activities so that they may become good Christians through an integral formation of body and soul in a familiar spirit of fraternal charity.

How You Can Help

The funds for the camp come from a minimal registration fee of $160 and donations from many generous benefactors.  There are several ways to support our work. Below is a list of essential supplies for our summer camp, which you could donate. You may also make a financial donation to sponsor a girl to attend the camp or to cover other expenses, such as food, outings, or equipment. 

Above all, your prayers for the fruits of this apostolic work are most appreciated.  In thanksgiving for your generosity, we will remember you in each Holy Sacrifice of the Mass at the summer camp.
