Campaign Section

Send a kid to camp so they can experience the healing power of nature.

Teens at Mercy Home arrive after experiencing difficult situations. Abuse. Neglect. Poverty. Violence. At Mercy Home, they get compassion, stability, and support while they work hard in school and to build skills that will help them succeed.

But come summer? They have an opportunity to escape the city and embrace the healing power of nature at camp — a first for many of our kids. Swimming, climbing trees, hiking, rock climbing, making arts and crafts, forging connections, and building new friendships are crucial parts of growing up and not one our Chicago kids take for granted.

It’s a life-changing experience for Chicago kids, one that gives them confidence, new friends, healing, emotional growth, and more.
