Beth, was killed in a summer camp bus accident.Because camp had been such a joy in Lisa Beth"s life,
the Gerstmans wanted to start a foundation in her name.They wanted to bring that same summer camp
joy Lisa Beth felt to other children.When Lisa Beth"s brother, Dan, heard the Cross Island YMCA
(CIYMCA) was looking for funds to help send physically disabled children to summer camp, he knew
it was the perfect way to keep Lisa Beth"s memory alive.
Dan soon learned that many disabled children spent the summer indoors while their ablebodied peers
enjoyed camp.The added costs of onetoone care and specialized busing for the disabled children
prevented them from being able to join in summer camp.The Gerstman family responded to this need by
setting up the Lisa Beth Gerstman Foundation in 2003.Its mission (使命) is to provide children with
physical disabilities the opportunity to attend camps in an integrated (综合的) setting.
During its first summer, the foundation teamed up with CIYMCA and funded 20 physically disabled
kids with varying degrees of disabilities.The children were given the opportunity to experience the joys
of summer camp, build lasting friendships and develop their selfconfidence.
Over the last five years, the Lisa Beth Gerstman Foundation has been partnering with camps that are
willing to launch (发起) integrated programs that include wheelchair accessible transportation, onetoone
swimming instruction, adaptive physical education equipment and training, all in a caring environment
where the children join in all regular camp activities.Last summer, the foundation partnered with six
