Put Kids First. Every
Month.
When you choose to give, you give kids the chance to make good memories. Making these good memories in summer is what makes childhood a childhood.
Monthly Giving Club
The S'mores Society
Across the country, camperships are too often tied to a single camp or religious organization — meaning the kids who need options most get the fewest.
The result? Young people are forced to miss out on formative summer experiences or attend programs with strings attached, never given the chance to simply be kids.
But it doesn’t have to be this way. Summer Camp Project is different. We do not run a camp, nor do we represent one. That independence is intentional.
⛺✨
For just $17 a month, your gift funds opportunities so young people can choose the full range of summer camp experiences based on fit, not affiliation.
Why Monthly Giving Matters:
🌱 Sustainability: Flexibility and freedom to test ideas, and immediately address needs. Monthly gifts let us plan ahead and send more kids to camp — no gaps, no guessing.
💙 Steady Long-Term Impact: Small, recurring gifts add up over time to provide reliable, year-round support.
$17 a month provides 1 kid with The Camp Comfort Kit (transportation + snacks + gear)
✽
$28 a month provides 1 kid with a weeklong day camp
✽
$100 a month provides 1 kid with a week of overnight summer camp

Kids to Summer Camp
in 2027
Spark Summer Joy
Your support helps a child overcome obstacles, providing them power to opt in to:
A safe space to learn, create, and lead with other kids who share their dreams and challenges
A fun and empowering camp experience making positive memories
Confidence-building lessons and essential life skills that fosters deep awareness of personal power
This is more than a donation. It’s a movement rooted in hope and powered by caring people like you who refuse to let kids get left out or left behind.
Donate Stock, DAFs
You may be able to give more with less and save on taxes by donating appreciated securities, such as stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs)
Donating stocks or mutual funds to The Summer Camp Project is a smart and simple way to provide an enrichment experience for kids. By making a gift of appreciated securities, you may be able to avoid capital gains tax, diversify your portfolio and/or secure a stream of income.
Ways to Give
Your contributions go directly to fund summer camp opportunities for youth whose families can’t afford it. Explore ways to Get Involved.

New Tax Law
Key changes donors should know from the new tax law:
Starting in 2026, non-itemizers can deduct cash donations up to $1,000 (single) or $2,000 (joint filers).
Starting in 2027, a federal tax credit goes into effect for donations to scholarship-granting organizations (SGOs), allowing filers to claim up to $1,700 per taxpayer for cash donations to qualified K-12 scholarship-granting organizations. This credit is available to all individual taxpayers, regardless of whether they itemize. (source: IRS)
The 60% AGI limit for cash contributions to public charities is now permanently extended.
Please consult with your money manager to discuss your options.
