Coins for Caring
Small change can have a big impact
Sport Camp gives back to the community through a special collection, Coins for Caring. Campers are encouraged to bring in coins during the week of camp and drop them in the large marked bins inside Center Court. We will have a friendly competition between the girls and boys to see who can raise the most! Small change can have a big impact!
Donations will benefit Feeding Hands, a local food pantry that provides food for over 1,000 families in Somerset County each month. More than food, Feeding Hands seeks to understand neighbors and provide caring at its best.
