Join us as we assemble essential care packages for Camp Morty in celebration of Giving Tuesday!

Support the one-of-a-kind Camp Morty while celebrating this global day of generosity!

Volunteers will assemble essentials boxes for our Merriwood campers of items donated to us between now and Giving Tuesday. For the list of requested items you can donate and details on where and when to donate click here. Volunteers can contribute by donating (new) items and/or assembling packages of the donated items at this project site.

Camp Morty is Westchester Parks Foundation’s free summer camp for kids receiving temporary assistance through Westchester County’s Department of Social Services. Last year we launched Merriwood, a two-week summer experience for teens that focuses on leadership, career exploration, and personal growth.

This year for Giving Tuesday, we aim to raise $50,000 to restore the infrastructure of Merriwood with the goal of repairing 2 cabins. Giving Tuesday is one of our favorite days of the year, and we hope to celebrate this global day of generosity with you!

Registered volunteers will receive an email with location details and an insurance waiver 1 day before the event. Please add volunteer@thewpf.org to your address book to ensure you receive this information.
