We are grateful for the many individuals, organizations, companies and foundations who support St. Brigid’s Summer Camp with the giving of their time and money to help us achieve our goal: to run a summer camp where all children are welcome to participate regardless of their family’s financial situation.
We couldn’t succeed without the kindness and generosity of our supporters!

Thank you to Mercury Marine Canada and Hurst Marina (Manotick) for the special pricing and support towards the purchase of a new outboard motor. The old outboard motor was undependable and the new outboard motor now provides a safe and reliable support to the canoeing and swimming activities of the campers at the camp.
