Hundreds of sweethearts visited the Camp Taylor Kissing Booth at Vintage Faire Mall in Modesto during the past week, helping to raise money for Camp Taylor and snagging one of those awesome Kap’s Heart Warrior’s t-shirts for their loved ones and valentine’s.

In January Camp Taylor and San Francisco 49ers Quarterback Colin Kaepernick announced the sale of the t-shirts to students at schools in the Turlock Unified School District in order to send children with congenital heart disease to the camp.

Camp Taylor says hundreds of people visited the kissing booth, giving donations in exchange for a picture. An estimated $3,000 was raised through the sale of Kaepernick t-shirts and bracelets, in addition to the photos.

According the Centers for Disease Control CHD is the most common birth defect in the United States, affecting about 1 in 100 babies born.
