Corporate Sponsors - Friendly's Restaurants, LLC This year, Friendly's is again supporting Easter Seals Camp Friendly’s through its annual Valentine Cones for Kids Campaign! From January 14 - February 14, 2013, Friendly’s Restaurants will be offering 5 Valentine Certificates good for FREE kids cones and a buy-one-get-one free adult entree as a thank you gift to restaurant guests who make a $1 donation to Easter Seals.
One former Camper, turned Camp Counselor, from Easter Seals New Hampshire explains, “As a person with a disability I get ‘special’ treatment everyday but from the second I get to camp I get to see what ‘normal’ feels like. I like having people rely on me, because it’s usually me relying on others. When you have a disability, you are trying to stand out without having people stare at what makes you different. When you are at Camp everyone notices you for being yourself.” Friendly's has supported Easter Seals since 1981 with more than $27 million through Cones for Kids. With the help of generous consumers, 25 Easter Seals affiliate organizations have benefited from this powerful campaign created by Friendly’s Restaurants up and down the East Coast.

Andy's motorized chair zooms through the woods on paved pathways that lead him to a boating and fishing dock, a nature center, campfire sing-alongs, a party pavilion, an indoor pool, a challenge course and Friendly's climbing tower. The tower is a challenge course element made possible through the support of Friendly's and the Cones for Kids campaign. Campers of all abilities climb the tower and achieve a new level of independence. Easter Seals Camp Hemlocks and support from Friendly's have enabled Andy to develop special abilities and make lasting friendships while enjoying his independence. FRIENDS WHO CARE® |
