Lincoln Camp: MCC Scholarships

During the summers of 2016 & 2017, the METCO Coordinating Committee (MCC) collaborated with the Lincoln Parks & Recreation Department, the Lincoln METCO Director and the Codman Trust to provide scholarships to 26 Boston-based students in 2016 and 38 Boston-based students in 2017, enabling their full participation in the Lincoln Summer Camp.  At camp, they had the opportunity to join their Lincoln-based friends for camp activities, swimming and achievement camp. 

This program was made possible through the Lincoln community's  generosity and we would like to offer the opportunity again this year.  This year, we have 48 kids applying the scholarship!  The MCC has already pledged $10,000, but we need $5,500 more.  We can only make it happen through community donations.  Donations cover the costs for 4 weeks of camp in addition to the cost of bus transportation to and from Boston ($390 dollars each day). Your donations will subsidize camp costs for families whose children are on the Free and Reduced Meal Program, and your donations are tax deductible!

 If you have questions prior to donating, please send us an email at [email redacted].  If you would prefer to send a check, please make it out to the METCO Coordinating Committee and send it to Lincoln MCC, P.O. Box 393, Lincoln, MA 01773.  Please annotate "Lincoln Summer Camp" on your check donation so that we know to count it towards this special campaign.  Thank you!
