BAF Grant Helps Ease Financial Pain for Families

The BAF has handed a $25,000 grant to the Western DuPage Special Recreation Association of Naperville, IL (a Chicago suburb). The $25,000 grant will help families off-set summer camp costs for children with disabilities. The Naperville Sun's article notes:

Naperville Park District offered several camps in cooperation with the Heritage YMCA Group for ages 3 years old through eighth grade. Any child registering for these camps and needing inclusion services benefited. The Bubel-Aiken grant was used to offset the cost of staffing to these families and to provide the adaptive materials necessary.
