Founded by legendary actor and visionary philanthropist Paul Newman in 1988, the camp, according to Paul Blanco, CEO of Barnum Financial Group and co-founder of the Barnum Foundation for Life, makes financial group supporters feel like, “”¦ the unique work that the Camp does fits in well with a lot of the work our Barnum Foundation for Life does for young people.”
“The Hole in the Wall Gang Camp provides ”˜a different kind of healing”™ to children with serious illnesses and their families through year-round programs celebrating the fun, friendship and spirit of childhood. We greatly appreciate this donation from the Barnum Foundation for Life,” said Andrea Keefe, director, community and corporate partnerships for the Camp.
