At the YMCA of the East Valley, we believe the camp experience is transformational and that all children, regardless of income, deserve to attend this summer adventure and help them discover their true potential.

Camp Edwards gives kids the chance to make new friends, learn new skills and interact with nature. Our camp teaches young people how to be more independent and contribute to a group as they engage in physical, social and educational activities.

Through various activities and teachings at Camp Edwards, children learn to appreciate the natural world, understand the importance of conservation, and develop skills that will shape their character. They may participate in outdoor adventures, environmental education programs, team-building activities, and more designed to foster community, personal growth, and ecological consciousness.

Your contribution to Camp Edwards enables them to continue offering these valuable experiences to children of all ages and backgrounds. By donating, you give children of all ages and backgrounds values and skills that will strengthen their characters.
