Why are we doing this?
The Off the Street Club (OTSC) Shamrock Shuffle Team raises money to send OTSC kids to Camp Mathieu, the club's summer camp in Wheaton, IL. The camp offers a safe haven for the kids while gang violence spikes in their Chicago west-side neighborhoods.
Please join us in our fundraising effort by donating to the Team - our goal this year is to raise $40,000 to help send the kids to camp.
