I Need You

I need you, if you're reading this, to take a moment and read about these girls.

Climber is a character! she had 3 siblings at camp and I didn't know that until after camp was over. She just does her own thing and does it with a smile. She has a very cool eye too. Maybe you can see it in the picture but she doesn't like to talk about it. She was our time girl at camp because she was the only one, including counselors, that had a watch. Anytime we needed to know the time we would call for her and she'd give it to us. She also loved the flarp we made. It was this goo stuff that you have in a cup. When you push it into the cup it makes a fart noise. Haha the kids loved it but especially her! She was Always playing with it. Her mom has breast cancer and has been fighting it since 2004 so pretty much her whole life since shes only 11. Shes a fun, strong, funny and outgoing girl. She's kinda a tom boy too but I love that about her.

Rio is the sweetest most obedient girl. She always followed directions and was so pleasant to be around. She is very mature for her age and I think that comes from the fact that she has a younger brother with downs syndrome to help take care of and I know she does. She is so helpful and when her parents came to get her I could tell that they are so proud of her and I can see why. Both of her parents had cancer at one point. They are both ok now but they are still watching her dad close. She came to camp last year for her first time and without any of her siblings. She's super brave and intelligent. She's quiet most of the time but when you talk to her she has only good things to say and I just couldn't get enough of her at camp.

I've been asked to sponsor these two girls to attend Camp Kesem BYU this year the week of August 12th. The cost for two campers is approximately $800.

You may be thinking, why should I donate or why should I help Brittani? I promise you this camp will change their lives.  Don't believe me? Watch this.

I'm asking you not just to help me out, but to help them. They need this way more than I do!

If you can't help with a donation, any possible help is appreciated (fundraising ideas, etc.)


Kesem (n.): magic; the ability to change a life; an agent of growth;
 the unique power that transforms kids into Camp Kesem Campers.
