Save Camp Burnt Gin!

I am so thankful for the opportunity to fulfill my dreams of working with people who have special needs at Camp Burnt Gin, for the past two summers. I love all the wonderful people i've met, staff and campers. This amazing piece of heaven on earth quickly becomes a second home to many people. Camp Burnt Gin is a special place where children,teens,and young adults with disabilities can go and be accepted and loved unconditionally. I am so inspired by how strong the campers are because they never let their struggles bother them. They have the positive outlook on life that I strive for. Camp Burnt Gin will always have a place in my heart and I will keep coming back for as long as possible.

But recently Nikki Haley might be trying to remove Camp Burnt Gin from the budget! And I refuse to let this happen! Camp Burnt Gin means too much to so many people! Please read this article and watch this video below to learn more about Camp Burnt Gin and why it needs to be saved! Maybe if   awareness about Camp Burnt Gin is  increased, more people will help fight to keep this wonderful place in the budget!
