Support from Shelter Personnel

Sandy Byrge, Child Mentor-Advocate, Pinehaven Homeless Shelter, Beckley, WV

“Your plan for the Saturday Camps sounds like a fantastic opportunity for the children….I am fully in favor of its purpose and direction. You always have inspiring ways to help children. As in the past, we don’t have a problem allowing the children to be in the care of Scottie’s Place and hold you and your programs in the highest regard.”

“The parents said the kids loved it and had a great time. One said that Eric and A.J. even woke up in the night and talked about it.”

“Thanks for your wonderful place for troubled kids to be able to come and refresh from their daily grind. The kids came back so excited that the other family is going to let their kids start going.”

“That is why the camp is so relevant and so important for the kids. It is the only place I know for certain that they are having a good time as children in an environment with people that are so good with them. Again, thanks so much for allowing the kids here to experience your wonderful program out in the wilderness. I know it will bear good fruit at some time in their lives.”

“I am so excited that Jerrad felt free enough to let himself enjoy the day to the max. He needs it and deserves it. I do hope that Destiny will go for the week. She also would be one who needs to have a childhood and just fun without having to be responsible for the other kids or the parents’ problems.”

“Josh just glows when he relates his stories and Jacob has the sweetest face when he relives and tells about camp.”

“Thank you so very much for allowing the children here to have the opportunity to experience all the wonderful things you provide to build them up and encourage them.”

“Thanks again for all you do. I mean that with my whole heart.”
