SUMMER CAMPS ARE FUN AND BIG BUSINESS FOR NONPROFITS

Ah, summer in Arizona. For many, this means…leaving Arizona. But for those who are unfortunate enough to have to stick around and also have children, it means finding something for those children to do while we go to work.

It used to be that kids just hung out all summer, or played in the neighborhood, or maybe joined a club. Or maybe they went off to a sleepaway camp every now and then. But nowadays, the options are almost limitless.

This is because the nonprofit community is smart. They realized at some point that by offering camps for kids, they not only could create a new revenue stream, they could start to engage with future donors and volunteers at a very young age, while doing their parents a solid that also increased engagement.
