Medfield Foundation Camp Fund Creates Summer Opportunities for Local Families

For eight years, the Medfield Foundation’s Camp Fund has been quietly transforming summers for families in town, ensuring that financial barriers don’t prevent children from experiencing the joy and growth that comes with summer camp.

Since 2021, the Camp Fund has supported 70 campers providing over 131 weeks of summer camp fun.  “The Medfield Foundation’s Camp Fund supports families who want to give their children meaningful summer experiences but face financial constraints,” said Abby Marble, President of the Medfield Foundation. “We believe every Medfield child deserves the opportunity to make memories, build friendships, and discover new interests during the summer months.”

The Camp Fund exists through the generosity of Medfield community members, the Home Committee, and local businesses who recognize the importance of ensuring children can participate in summer activities. The Medfield Foundation works collaboratively with Medfield Outreach which determines eligibility for the campership program on a confidential basis, and also with Medfield Parks and Recreation which offers campers a discount.

The Medfield Foundation continues to accept donations to the Camp Fund throughout the year. For more information or to make a donation, visit https://www.medfieldfoundation.org/campfund or contact Abby Marble at info@medfieldfoundation.org.
