We are raising scholarship money for Armenian kids in the Chicagoland area to attend Hye Camp. Hye Camp is a 1-week overnight camp for kids ages 8 - 15 to get together for sports, arts & crafts, Armenian cultural activities, bonfires, etc.  Every year dozens of families apply for scholarships, and there are always a few parishes that struggle to raise enough money for the kids. Our AGBU YP group is committing to send at least 2 kids to camp ($400 each * 2 = $800) and our goal is to send more than that! Scholarship recipients will be selected based on financial need by the Hye Camp executive board.
