Why donate? For a camper…
-
who has never been away from home before, MTC is an introduction to independence
-
who may have struggled socially in Middle or High School, MTC is a welcoming place to meet and make friends
-
who has never seen a star filled Maine sky, swam in a clear lake, or heard the breeze whispering in the pine trees, MTC offers a place to fall in love with nature
-
who hasn’t had a chance to try their hand at tennis, canoeing, music, or any of the other activities offered, MTC provides an opportunity to learn new skills, demonstrate competence, and boost confidence
-
who is surrounded at school and home by technology and screens, MTC is a chance to disconnect, and reconnect with what matters
-
who may be under tremendous stress during the school year, MTC offers a chance to have fun, relax, and learn how to deal with stress in a natural environment away from the demands of school and home.
-
Who may have struggled socially, MTC offers a welcoming community that embraces diversity and acceptance.
-
Who may have struggled with their mental and emotional health, MTC has a structured environment that facilitates good sleep habits, regular and healthy meals, a socially accepting community, role models who care, and connection to nature.
-
struggling to answer the adolescent question “Who am I?”, MTC tells them it is okay to be “free to be, and free to become”.
-
looking for meaning, MTC offers them a chance to connect with a community in which they matter
-
feeling like they have already left childhood behind, MTC allows them to reconnect with the joy and curiosity of play, silliness, fun, and days without agendas.
