We are launching a campaign to build a virtual wall.
That’s right, we said “virtual.”

We are asking you to sponsor a virtual brick/s to begin this construction. Starting at $20, you own a brick that can bear your name as a supporter of the Arthur C. Luf Children that will be placed on 24-7 display, right here on the home page of the Connecticut Burns Care Foundation web site. For $35, you can purchase a larger brick/s that allows more text.

Supporting the “virtual” wall is a fun and affordable way to show your support for the camp, which runs from July 17-24th in 2016. Think of the joy you will feel as you help send children with severe burn injuries to camp. Help us build a “virtual” wall that will endure indefinitely.
