Among the 3,000 programs listed on the app, children who love animals can find multiple camps offered by the HSM. These camps allow children to spend their summer learning about and spending times with animals.

The HSM offering several styles of camps through the app, including a one week-long Olympic-themed day camp will explore the secret life of shelter pets, med veterinary scientists and amazing animal champions.
