Every year, we sponsor almost half of our campers. We believe every child should have a platform to share their purpose and know they have the power to make a difference. We are so grateful for all our Big and Little Buddies and their families who have been able to attend Kind Camp and excited that we have most of them return each year and always look forward to meeting new ones.
Keys to Kindness hosts an annual Summer Kind Camp for children of Pre-K through 5th-grade (just completed 5th Grade). This is the one-stop camp that has a little bit of everything to make the summer days fun and kindly filled for both boys and girls. The camp is held Monday through Friday. All Day Camp is available from 9:00 am – 5:00 pm. for $150.00, or Half Day Camp is 9:00 am – 1:00 pm or 1:00 pm 5:00 for $75.00.
Also, campers and volunteers must purchase a Kind Camp T-shirt for camp. We recommend purchasing more than one t-shirt as volunteers and campers are asked to wear their Kind Camp Shirt every day at camp. Kind Camp T-shirts will be given out on the first day of camp.

Keys To Kindness allows Middle School Students in 6th -8th Grade to partner with our Big Buddies during Kind Camp and train to become a Big Buddy. Once in 9th Grade, they can sign up as a Big Buddy. They attend our training before camp and receive additional training during Kind Camp, as well as the opportunity to earn community service hours. K2K Kind Camp is a structured and intentional summer camp that pours into all the kids that attend Kind Camp. The structure in place allows us to help each child learn new things and find their purpose while learning the importance of Kindness.

Kind Camp is a great opportunity not just for our Little Buddies to spend part of their summer making a difference and learning the importance of Kindness but also for our Big Buddies. Connecting with their Little Buddies and knowing they are impacting and making a difference for someone else is a lifelong lesson. It has been incredible to hear the stories about relationships built between little and big buddies that have lasted through the years. They also get the opportunity to earn community service hours! We have an excellent return rate on our volunteers, even having some of our college students and out-of-state volunteers return!
