Since 2006, Prison Fellowship’s Angel Tree program has been sponsoring a football camp for disadvantaged youth at Stanford University. Current and former NFL players and coaches volunteer their services for the free camp, which serves boys ages 7 to 13 from northern and central California, many who have a parent behind bars.
For more information about the camp, or to find out how to start a camp in your community, contact Joe Avila, Prison Fellowship’s executive director in northern California, at joe_avila@pfm.org.
