Hudson Guild's K-8 Summer Camp

Recently on The Daily Show, Marlon Wayans gave a shout out to Hudson Guild and mentioned the importance of out of school time programs for youth.

The Wayans family is so important to the Guild, and we are beyond grateful. The images above show some of our favorite memories with the Wayans including moments spent with our after school program participants over the years.

With summer approaching in a few months, we are seeking to raise $20,000, which will pay for 150 children in our summer camp program to experience a variety of trips such as zoos, aquariums, baseball games, theme parks, and more. Your support will make it a summer that they will always remember!

To donate, visit dailyshow.com/HudsonGuild at the link in our bio.

Paint, Ping-Pong, & SAP

Employees from SAP visited the Fulton Community Center in March and spent the day doing activities with our older adult participants.

To start the day, the volunteers hosted a paint and sip event where they painted flowers and enjoyed mocktails with participants. Later in the afternoon, a ping-pong tournament was held with prizes. Participants were excited to finally show off their incredible ping-pong skills and are looking forward to when SAP employees come back to hang out!
