See how Camp nurtures bravery, respect, curiosity, creativity, and kindness in every experience from trying something new to building lasting friendships! It’s more than a summer program, it’s a place where kids grow into their best selves.
Help us make these moments possible for every child! By choosing to invest in the Children’s Museum of Phoenix on Arizona Gives Day (April 7th), you’re investing in high-quality early learning experiences for all children.
All donations on @azgives Day will directly support Summer Camp Scholarships at the Children’s Museum of Phoenix! Our goal is to raise $5,000, which will fund 11 scholarships in full.
