Global Camps Africa is a remarkable organization that gets real results. A strong testimony to this: it's founder and president, Phil Lilienthal, received the 2013 Sargent Shriver Award for Distinguished Humanitarian Service, which recognizes a Returned Peace Corps Volunteer who "continues to make a sustained and distinguished contribution, whether that be to humanitarian causes at home, abroad, or through innovative social entrepreneurial efforts to bring about significant, long term-change."
