Finding the money for Summer Camp

I found a wonderful 7 week overnight summer camp program that would welcome Timmy. They offer ABA, education and socialization, these are all the things that Timmy needs. Now I just have to figure out how to come up with 8,000 by the end of April. It's so hard to do everything financially for him alone. His medications and doctors not to mention hospital co-pays, homeopathic doctors, special diet are all catching up with me now. I make a decent living but with his needs it's a paycheck to paycheck experience now. I have burned up the savings I had just to get him where we are now. There are some options, we could move to a smaller less expensive place but moving for him is traumatic and it would cost me 5,000 or more just to move us. I am going to see if I can get the school board to help pay for this since Timmy is suppose to be in year round school. If I could just get 1/2 of the money from another source I would live on PB&J for the next 6 months to come up with the other half. Anyone have any brilliant ideas?
