Summer Camp Fun
Children at FMF went to Baynes Family Farm for Camp Phoenix, a weekend summer camp exclusively for our kids! They did relay races, played on a water slide and slip-n-slide, went fishing, had a movie night outside, and of course made s'mores. For many of the kids, this was their first experience camping and attending an overnight camp. They had a BLAST! Here are quotes from kids when FMF staff picked them up:

Thank You Durham Tech OTA
We partnered with the Occupational Therapy Assistant Program at Durham Technical Community College for one of their summer Service Learning projects. They created a handout with information about Entry Point Durham, and other community resources for when individuals or families come to our door seeking shelter services. They also created a welcome packet full of information for families when they first move into our shelter. This team went above and beyond for us planting flowers around the playground and vegetables in our garden beds.
We cannot thank them enough for their dedication to helping FMF be the best it can be! |
