For most children, summer is a time a time to play, to go to camp, to the beach, or on vacation a time to simply enjoy being a child. For children with AIDS, summer can be a lonely time, a time of staying indoors, taking medications, feeling sick, and experiencing isolation from friends. |

Camp Hope is so much more than just summer camp. Camp Hope offers the normal joys of childhood—joys that every child deserves. Most of these children live in households that earn less than $700 a month and do not otherwise have the resources to attend Camp Hope. With generous support from the community, AFH strives to offer the Camp Hope experience to every HIV-positive child. Give now.
