✨ Mending with Maya: A Free Healing Summer Camp for Kids ✨
Hi! I’m Maya O’Neal — mother, mentor, and founder of Mending with Maya, a nonprofit dedicated to healing, emotional wellness, and empowerment for youth in our community.
This summer, we’re launching our first-ever FREE 5-week healing and enrichment camp for children ages 6–12 in Tallassee, Alabama — and we need your help!
Our program is designed to pour into the minds, hearts, and spirits of children through:
- Academic activities & tutoring
- Yoga & mindfulness practices
- Affirmation-based art & journaling
- Nature trips, swimming, gardening, and more Healing-centered community building
We believe every child deserves a safe, nurturing space to learn, feel seen, and grow — especially in underserved communities where resources are limited.
With your support, we’ll be able to:
• Purchase school and art supplies
• Provide healthy snacks and meals
• Sponsor field trips and outdoor activities
• Hire guest instructors and youth mentors
• Secure transportation, insurance, and essential materials
For example:
• $25 – Feeds a child for one full week of camp
• $50 – Covers all enrichment materials for one child
• $100 – Sends a child on two healing field trips
• $250 – Sponsors one child’s full summer experience
• $500 – Supports volunteer stipends & guest speakers
So every dollar helps. No contribution is too small.
This work is deeply personal — rooted in my own healing journey and my mission to create the kind of space I needed growing up. Together, we can break cycles and build a generation of grounded, joyful, and self-aware children.
Thank you for believing in this mission.
Please donate, share, and help us make Mending with Maya a transformative summer for our kids!
