Help Us Bring Camp to Every Camper

Every camper deserves the joy of connection, community, and adventure—regardless of ability or circumstance. At Trailways Camps, we proudly provide our life-changing programs at no cost to participants, but we can’t do it without your help.

New “Fun Days” for Those Still Waiting

With demand growing, our waiting lists are longer than ever. That’s why we’re introducing Fun Days—day-long experiences that offer a taste of camp life, filled with laughter, learning, and friendship. Your support ensures these individuals aren’t left behind while they wait for a full session.

$1,400 = One Full Camp Scholarship

Each camper spot costs $1,400 to fully fund—from safe lodging and nutritious meals to adaptive activities tailored to every individual’s needs. Your gift directly funds these scholarships and helps keep camp 100% free for the families we serve.

Specialized Support for Full Inclusion

Our campers come with a wide range of medical, mobility, and dietary needs. Your donation helps us provide the personalized care, adaptive equipment, and one-on-one support that allow every camper to participate fully and joyfully.
