What is the Mika Fund?
Unrelated to the pop singer (even though we enjoy his music :), the Mika Fund aims to offer the camp experience to low-income families.
The fundraiser is named after the camp's first mascot, Mika (Clement Joubert, aka Peanut, the Camp Director's beloved black Labrador, now deceased)
To honor her memory and her friendliness toward everyone - not just the most loving and energetic campers, the McGill Conservatory Day Camp has decided to set up this fundraiser.
Your donation will provide camp sessions at a lower cost (depending on the family's income) for art loving campers, who but for your generosity would not have the opportunity to participate in our camp. We invite you to donate whatever you can during registration.
How can you help?
You will be able to make an online donation of $10, $20 or $50 while enrolling your children at camp, or you can contact the camp office to make a donation of the amount of your choice at (514) 398-5505.
