Help send campers to camp by creating your own fundraising page today!

Your individual fundraising page allows you to share your story, set a goal, and raise funds!

It costs about $1000 for a camper to attend a week of summer camp. Thankfully, we are able to subsidize that cost and campers only pay about 70% of that $1000 before receiving additional discounts or requesting camperships. This gala and your commitment to helping us raise funds allows us to continue to send campers to camp at this reduced cost.
