Become a Sponsor

You can help build a city of PROMISE by supporting UrbanPromise in providing a child of Camden with the opportunity to attend one of our five after school programs and summer camps.

Youth crime statistics reveal that the peak hours for violent juvenile crime and victimization are between 3:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m.  Since 1988 UrbanPromise has grown to reach over 500 children per year through the AfterSchool Programs and Summer Camps in an attempt to make sure that no child in our programs is a part of this alarming statistic.  

Join the Child Sponsorship Program and help support UrbanPromise in our endeavor to CHANGE THE ODDS for the children and youth of Camden, one child at a time.  Your investment of $30 a month, $360 a year will make it possible for a child of Camden to participate in UrbanPromise’s year-round programming, made up of AfterSchool Programs and Summer Camps.
