MONTHLY GIVING

When you give monthly, you shine a steady light that helps camp thrive all year long. As a member of the Candlelight Giving Program, your ongoing support ensures every camper can enjoy life-changing experiences in a place that feels like home. Monthly giving is simple, meaningful, and makes a lasting impact.

Annual Fund

Each summer, we subsidize over $1 million in tuition through our Tiered Pricing and Campership programs to support the affordability of our programs. All dollars received through our Annual Giving campaign support our affordability initiatives.

Capital Projects + Beyond

We are fortunate to be the stewards of over 1300 acres of land and 150+ buildings across our three campuses. Over the years, our generous donors have supported projects like a new Unit and Village Director building, gaga ball courts, new docks for our swimming area, sailboats, gardens and many other projects that staff has prioritized. We are always open to receive support from donors in these areas.
