Melissa Cilley is the Executive Director of the Susan L. Curtis Foundation. The Susan L. Curtis Foundation and Camp Susan Curtis have been providing life-changing summer programming for some of Maine’s neediest boys and girls since 1974. Still committed to its original mission to build the character, self-confidence and self-esteem of around 500 disadvantaged children and youth each summer through the provision of tuition-free, high quality camping, educational and social experiences, Camp Susan Curtis is so much more than “just a summer camp.” At Camp Susan Curtis, campers participate in a strengths-based, experiential curriculum tied to the Maine Learning Results and designed to minimize summer learning loss, teach and enhance critical life skills, and develop key assets aimed at leveling the playing field for this vulnerable population. There’s no doubt that Camp Susan Curtis campers build wonderful memories; they also build the framework that allows them to reverse the generational cycle of poverty and take ownership of their lives, their communities and their futures.
Susan Curtis Foundation staff must raise approximately 80% of our budget – including camper tuitions — through fundraising. This year, they will hold their first annual “Fall Foliage Fun Ride” on Sunday, October 16 beginning at 8:00 a.m. in the Northport Business Complex at the corner of Allen Avenue and Washington Avenue in Portland. Riders can choose between a 50 mile ride and a 15 mile ride.
