Puddle Jumpers Incorporated
Puddle Jumpers is a non profit, non-government organisation committed to responding to the social development needs of society's most vulnerable children and young people; priority of our work is reserved for children who do not live with their birth parents.
We believe all kids matter, and deserve the right to engage in happy and fun experiences in their life.
Puddle Jumpers Inc provides camps, day activities and other support programs to children, young people and families who may otherwise not get such opportunities. Essentially the camps are about providing children with opportunities to reach their full potential. We do this to provide an environment that is inclusive and encourages participation, friendship and trust. The fostering of relationships is encouraged through the provision of one on one monitoring and care during the young person’s time on camp.
