California, the Golden State, is one gigantic playground for kids. It's a place where the sun always shines, the palm trees sway in the cool Pacific breeze, and the mountains reach towards the azure blue sky like giant green and brown waves frozen in time. Here, adventure is like the air – it's everywhere! And the most thrilling of them all? Rock climbing! In the heart of this sun-kissed state, there is a special group of young superheroes, known as the California Crag-Kids! These kids aren't your average superheroes though, oh no, their superpowers are a bit more… rocky. Instead of flying, they scale slippery cliffs. Rather than super strength, they've got super grip. And forget about invisibility, these young climbers want to be seen! Their leader is Rocky Rascal, a fun-loving, freckle-faced kid with a shock of red hair that rivals the brightness of the golden sun itself. With a cheeky grin permanently etched on his face, he's known for his goofy humor that could make even a stone-faced mountain chuckle. His giggles echo throughout the valleys, bouncing off the very rocks that the California Crag-Kids love so much. Every morning, Rocky and the Crag-Kids march towards the towering cliffs with determination in their eyes and laughter in their hearts. As they climb, they celebrate their triumphs and encourage one another, proving to the world that even the steepest of problems can be conquered with persistence, resilience, and a pinch of humor. And at the end of the day, as the sun sets behind the mountains, casting long shadows over the California landscape, the laughter and cheers of the California Crag-Kids can be heard echoing through the canyons, a magical symphony of joy, triumph and rock climbing camaraderie.

Camp del Corazon is a beacon of hope for children living with heart disease, providing a medically supervised, residential summer camp experience free of charge for children ages 7-17. Since 1995, we have served approximately 300 children each year, and grown from a volunteer staff of two and a minimal budget to a thriving community of support and growth. Our camp on Catalina Island, 22 miles off the California coast, is dedicated to providing resources and services for these children and their families, who already incur incredible financial burdens from medical bills and often have to seek private or home schooling due to the numerous doctors' appointments and hospital stays. By supporting Camp del Corazon, we give these children the chance to experience the joy of summer camp and connect with other kids who understand what it's like to live with heart disease.
