David Harris has become the face of Give the Kids Hope Foundation, inspiring many less fortunate youngsters with his enthusiastic participation and recalling that his own upbringing led him to join the group, saying with a smile "we grew up with so much love, we never knew we were poor".
Â
The foundation which was founded by Stephen Tilton Jr. of Schumacher Chevrolet,  has goals that include rebuilding Camp Hope in West Milford, NJ, which for decades has supported under privileged children in North Jersey and  working with Essex County Executive, Joseph N. DiVincenzo Jr., in Essex County to support programs at Turtle Back Zoo that benefit less fortunate children. Â
Â
Through efforts in 2010, Give The Kids Hope raised enough funds to sponsor an additional 700 campers for the 2011 season at Camp Hope and has plans to turn the camp into a five star resort for underprivileged kids.
