e/Camp Lanowa

New Query

Information
has glosseng: Camp Lanowa, and its sister Camps of Kiwago and Wakonda, are non-profit camps run by Homes for the Homeless, a non-profit operator of homeless shelters in New York City. Homelessness is a worrying and relatively large problem in New York City, with approximately 100,000 experiencing homelessness each year. Such an environment can frequently lead to a difficult upbringing for children unfortunate enough to find themselves in this position. The result is that many children grow up unable to experience the sort of childhood so often taken for granted; material goods are often unattainable; on occasion families cannot afford to adequately clothe or even feed their children and additionally, such children miss out on experiences often regarded as a rite of passage, instead condemned to a childhood of tough city living. Against this background, Camp Lanowa and its sister camps attempt to offer such opportunities to these children and provide an escape from the tough inner city life.
