Celebrating their fifth anniversary, Camp TLC (Together Living a Challenge), which has sites in Bethesda, Los Angeles, Queens and Saratoga Springs, NY, believes that when children are delivered hope and happiness through quality “camp like” programming, they develop a renewed sense of self-esteem and hope. Camp TLC brings a performing arts camp to kids who would never get to go to camp, specifically to kids in hospitals and foster care situations. Founder Caroline Baumis dared to quit her job and follow her dream of starting this amazing camp that now thrives for herself and the lives of others.
