Campers Inn RV used employee payroll deductions, the corporate matching program and special events to collect over $700,000 in Care Camps donations.
Care Camps helps children who are going through cancer experience the outdoors at medically supervised camps with other children going through the same experience. Campers Inn is now the second-largest donor to Care Camps’ cause.
Care Camps board chairman Wade Elliott expressed the group’s thanks.
“The generosity of Campers Inn and the Hirsch family, coupled with their sincere passion to make a difference in the lives of others, propels our mission to new heights. Campers Inn’s commitment to Care Camps begins with their leadership, extends to their employee base, and ripples across the United States and Canada impacting thousands of children living with cancer and their families. Campers Inn’s leadership in their support of Care Camps is an example to the industry of giving back to their customer’s communities.”
To date, Campers Inn RV’s contributions will enable more than 12,000 children with cancer, 8,500 siblings and 6,000 parents to attend Care Camps.
The donations also funded 190 grants for camps to aid with operations, to perform upgrades on structures and to buy equipment.
