Theresa's Fundraiser for the OTSC Kids
A nonprofit fundraiser supporting
Off the Street Club$710
raised by 10 people
$1,000 goal
It's no secret that I'm passionate about the kids of Off the Street Club! The club offers a safe place in West Garfield Park, one of Chicago's most dangerous neighborhoods, where kids can go to just be kids. The club offers after school programs, tutoring, and a lot of other fun activities for the kids to take part in.
I'm fundraising for the Club’s “Save Our Summer” (S.O.S.) Program, which sends the kids to summer camp at Camp Matheiu during a time when gang violence typically spikes in their neighborhoods. In addition to the $600 cost per kid to go to camp for the summer, we are also raising $40,000 to replace electricity, the hot water heater and the main entrance road at Camp Mathieu. Anything you can give will help to make it a safe summer for the kids of OTSC. Thank you!
