ABOUT US
Hello there. We're the Manning family. We would like to thank you for your interest in Cans for cam. I'm Andrew Manning and this is my amazing family: My wife Vanessa, our daughters Carly, Claire, Camden, and our son Quintin. "Cans for Cam" is more than just an online bottle drive, it's a story, it's our story. We are just one of many families who struggle each day with children who have special medical needs. This site is not only dedicated to our amazing daughter Camden, but also to the families out there who struggle each day with similar situations.
Learn how you can make a real difference by donating some of your time to a local ​charity. Learn more about Hirschsprungs and how you can help other children afflicted with the same disease. As Camden gets older, we will continue to share where she is at on her journey. There are many years of difficulty to come and we invite you to follow her story along the way. See not only where Camden has been, but where she is headed. One day she will be old enough to add to her own story here. As she matures from a child into a young lady, Camden will understand how she can give hope and support to others.
Over the years, Vanessa and I have donated cans and bottles to many different fundraisers. This has helped kids and their families offset the cost of trips, sports, music equipment, and many other causes. After struggling for almost three years, we came up with Cansforcam. This can help offset a few extra costs not only for Camden, but also those of her siblings.
Thank you again for visiting cansforcam.org. We are still in the process of building this site. Some areas may be "coming soon" or incomplete at this time. If you would like to give us feedback, or have suggestions for the site, please reach out to us. Let us know if there are topics you would like to see added. Please contact us for any reason at all. God Bless.
When a child has special medical needs, it's easy to be consumed by it every day. Camden's brother and sisters have been amazing through this journey. Just as any parent would do, we are doing everything we can to put a little more joy in their lives. Please take your time navigating the site. We will share stories of happiness, and also stories of sadness. You will find videos with fun and laughter, and those with tears and sadness. We will share our faith in God, who gives us our strength each day. You will also find resources and links to support groups. Share your personal stories and give hope to others.
Thank you
Andrew
