Mission
Project Kindle is a charitable, non-profit organization with a mission to improve the quality of life for children and families infected with and affected by HIV and AIDS through recreational programs, a community AIDS awareness speakers bureau, year-round support and advocacy.
Programs
Project Kindle runs several programs. Camp Kindle, our summer camp sessions, are held in Nebraska and California. Each session serves up to 100 young people each summer from all over the Midwest and California. Project Kindle covers 100% of the costs for them to attend, this includes travel expenses. Camp Kindle offers health, team building and character building workshops during the camp session along with traditional camp activities. Project Kindle also offer year round support to our campers through maintaining staff/camper and camper/camper relations, community involvement incentive programs and newsletters. Project Kindle also has a speakers bureau, known as SPEAK OUT, made up of campers from our camp sessions. Each year the SPEAK OUT program reaches over 15,000 students. This is done both nationally and internationally, through the HIV peer-to-peer educational presentations. Project Kindle also offers the Students Affected by AIDS Scholarship Fund for young people needing funding for post high school education.
