St. John's Summer Program is a Catholic day camp located in Hollywood, MD. Our goal is to run a dynamic Catholic summer program that churns out fun and saints! It's that simple. Join us!
All children ages 4-14 are welcome!
Thank you to everyone who has helped support this most worthwhile project! This summer we raised a record $42,723 for Mary's Meals. Join us next summer as we do it again!

Mary's Meals' vision is that every child receives one daily meal in their place of education and that all those who have more than they need, share with those who lack even the most basic things. Mary's Meals feeds more than 2 million children each day. It only costs $25.20 to feed a child for an entire year!
Our instructors are overflowing with love for our campers and have so much more love to give. The idea that so many less fortunate children were going hungry and dropping out of school made them want to help, so we decided to partner with Mary’s Meals, sponsor a school in Malawi and help make a difference! Here we are, thanks to your generous help, 6 years and $176,113 later, even more committed to making sure the 1,000 children at Chaone Primary School have at least one daily meal.
Each summer before the campers arrive, we take our staff on a 3 day camping retreat. Take a peek at what it's like!
SJSP 2025 Eyebrows/Hair Challenge
Over the past eight years we've raised $243,000 to feed the children at Chaone Primary School in Malawi, most of that coming from our Eyebrow/Hair Challenge. We'll trade our eyebrows/hair for food to feed these children! Our head/hair... your money... their food! To learn more and to vote, just click on image above, which will take you to our Mary's Meals donation page.
