Recognition Opportunities
"Thank you for a wonderful weekend. It was our first time at Boggy Creek. My favorite moment was watching my son play basketball from his wheelchair. It brought tears to my eyes. That let him know that he’s still able to do what other children do. I can’t thank you enough for that."
— Elsa, camper mom
Paul Newman believed that giving back to help those less fortunate is the greatest opportunity to make our world a better place.
In honor of Paul’s vision of enriching the lives of children with serious illnesses, the Newman Circle of Friends was established to honor our steadfast donors who have reached and/or exceeded the $1 million level of giving to Camp Boggy Creek.
On behalf of the Board of Directors and staff, and the thousands of children and families we serve, we express our heartfelt gratitude to the following generous donors for reaching this remarkable milestone of giving!
