Camp Fowler’s STEM, arts programs get backing

Penntex Construction has committed $187,000 to support young campers in their participation in STEM and arts programs offered by Valley Youth House at Camp Fowler.

Camp Fowler serves youth of all ages, with a focus on those who would otherwise not have access to camp experiences. Adventures in Arts and Adventures in STEM camps provide informal summer learning experiences, helping to level the playing field for underserved youth whose families could not ordinarily afford such a program.

Penntex Construction is a full-service commercial construction company with offices in the Philadelphia and Allentown areas. At the heart of the company’s approach to Building Better is a commitment to support the local communities the organization serves.

“By removing any financial barriers, Camp Fowler becomes more accessible to youth who could greatly benefit from this life-changing camp,” said Christina Schoemaker, Senior Vice President of Development, Grants and Marketing at Valley Youth House. “We are so grateful to Penntex Construction for making this generous donation that will send hundreds of young people to Camp Fowler this summer.”

James Hoolehan, president of Penntex Construction, said the company is pleased to support helping youth in our community.

“Our team is committed to building community by helping organizations we are passionate about in the areas we serve,” he said. “We are honored to be part of removing barriers and creating opportunities for more children across the region to access this valuable learning resource. We look forward to seeing firsthand how the funds will benefit young campers.”
