Emily Sandall Foundation

We are very proud to again donate to the Summer Arts and Leadership Camp sponsored through WORD in Missoula, Montana and run by a friend of Emily’s,Joshua Lisbon.The camp is for homeless and at-risk children. It is a free camp that provides breakfast, lunch, transportation and a bunch of great programming including rafting,backpacking,Native American games, music, art and horseback riding.Emily would have loved this concept and camp.
It is the goal of SALC to provide a safe, structured and fun summer free of charge to homeless students and those at-risk of homelessness who would otherwise be unable to access such resources. This camp combines so well Emily’s passion for the wilderness and helping disadvantaged children.

This fall Joshua plans to introduce wilderness programming for those students who have aged out of SALC, 8th grade through high school, to run through the school year. It will be a pilot program which he hopes to build on in the future.
We hope that SALC and its staff and campers have a wonderful and successful summer.
