Donate to the People Outdoors Fund

The People Outdoors Fund is used to support disadvantaged individuals by underwriting the costs associated with attending camp. Each and every contribution is an investment in the wellbeing of our camper's lives.

  • $30 can go toward purchasing sporting equipment
  • $50 can go toward a camper's meal costs on camp
  • $100 can go towards support equipment like shower chairs and off-road wheelchairs.
  • $150 can go towards sending a volunteer on camp to support our campers.
  • higher donation ammounts can help go toward funding a camper to attend a camp.
