Generous Community Donors
We could not make our free youth programming happen without the support of all of the restaurants and vendors who provide food for our campers. During our first two years of On the Green Summer Camps they shared cuisines from around the world and collectively provided more than 3,000 meals.
We also extend our appreciation to Maurice Ramirez Photography and Noah Graham of Infinity Photography for beautifully capturing camp memories, Alameda Golf Works for making it possible for us to provide every camper access to equipment to learn the game and expert instructor Brad Marek for designing an engaging golf curriculum that’s getting our beginner golfers excited about improving their skills.
Thank you all for your generosity and community spirit!!
