The Fiver Community Steps Up
Fiver’s transition to virtual programming would not have been possible without flexibility, effort, talent, and support of our community. We are truly grateful to the following organizations and individuals who made this transition a smooth one for our Fiver families:

Thank you to Owen Lynn and Xavier Taglich, Co-Presidents of The Backpack Initiative, for donating a brand new backpack for every Camp WiFiver participant.
Thank you to Melissa Greenberg and Jeremy Krane from Pop In Here Events for hosting a Yoga class via Zoom that raised over $600 for Fiver.
Thank you to Fiver Alum Carlito Atkins for designing this year’s camp shirt.
