All children are created equal. All deserve the same opportunities for happiness, health and success. All of them deserve a level playing field and an equal promise of a better tomorrow.

The philosophy of Character Camp is that each boy and girl possesses leadership qualities. These leading boys and girls grow up to be leading adults. These catalysts are not born: they are made. Qualities such as honesty, responsibility, hard work, respect and courage are instilled in the right combinations for a winning product. Character Camp has started the $1 Million Dollar Healthy Child Campaign to ensure the leader in every participating boy and girl can be groomed into a productive and outstanding adult. Focusing on the total health of underprivileged children, the campaign seeks to improve the health, safety, academic performance and character of all those encountered.
