First founded by Paul Newman in 1988 these non-profit residential camps are located in Connecticut, New York, Florida, Ireland and France, with new camps in formation in California, North Carolina, and Israel attended by children from the various countries of the region. All children in all the camps are enrolled free of charge. At the camps they find camaraderie, joy, and a renewed sense of being a child.
