Camp Sponsorship Award Update

[ubpncathy]

The UBPN Board of Directors and the UBPN InterACTION Program Volunteers are pleased to announce that due to the generous donations received by the organization, UBPN was able to award 12 families/individuals Camp Sponsorships for Camp UBPN 2003! In all, 23 people will be attending Camp UBPN 2003 on sponsorship. Even with this success, funding was limited and the organization wishes it could have done more for the families who requested assistance.

UBPN is grateful to those who donated money toward sponsorship and encourages on-going donations to fund future sponsorships through the endowment fund established last year. It is the goal of the organization to raise enough money to withdraw the interest to cover future camp sponsorships, while reinvesting the principal. It is from this fund that we hope to one day underwrite camp tuition for anyone with a BPI who wishes to attend. For more information on how you can make a contribution to the endowment fund for future camps, please email Nancy Birk, UBPN President, at nancy@ubpn.org.

To those of you who have already made a donation, please know that you have made a difference in the lives of some very special families.

With heartfelt thanks,
Cathy Kanter,
Immediate Past President/Camp Coordinator
