Formerly
Camp Fire Boys and Girls, “Camp Fire USA” is the new identity of one
of the nation’s premier youth development organization. Even though the name
is new, the purpose of the organization remains the same: to serve children.
With
a national headquarters in Kansas City, Mo., Camp Fire USA provides
coeducational programming for approximately 700,000 participants annually, as
reported by Camp Fire councils, through 120 councils in 41 states and the
District of Columbia. As a not-for-profit, youth development organization,
Camp Fire provides programs that include mentoring opportunities through
clubs, environmental education through camping, and direct child-care
services. Other innovative activities include an in-school service-learning
curriculum and programs designed specifically for urban youth and for
teen-agers.

“To
have fun
To learn to make things
To remember to finish what I begin
To keep my temper most of the time
To learn about nature and living outdoors
To have adventures with people,
places and things
To make friends”
“I
believe Camp Fire USA is one of the best allies a child care
provider can have at the local level. They don’t just talk about
improving the quality of child care in our communities, they do
something about it. Their training is fantastic, their resources
are valuable, and their support system is exceptional.”
