STARS FAMILIES
What our families have to say about Run for the STARS...

Run for the STARS provides scholarships which provide summer camp experiences for nearly twenty of our individuals with disabilities. This is just a snapshot of what our families experience at the summer camps:

“As a single mother, it is difficult to go away with my daughter on my own, but since each family has a helper, it takes some of the workload off of me… to be able to bond with other families with disabilities and not have to feel so alone is wonderful. Everything is adapted for our special kids and they have such a great time.”

“It is the only chance we get to have a vacation and couldn’t afford one otherwise.”

“My son has loved his time at Walcamp. It is important for him to be in a supportive Christian environment with other young people he knows from STARS… and I needed the break as well.”

“My four-year-old son with Angelman’s Syndrome took his first steps on his own at Joni and Friends Family Retreat. Thank you!”
