Camps for Kids

Camp changes lives.

It’s that simple. It’s a place to make lifelong friends, discover new interests and develop independence. But camp is not always as accessible to the children who could benefit from it the most – those with disabilities or limited means. Camps for Kids needs your help to change that.

Join Our Match CAMPaign

Between April 1 and July 31, your generous donations can go twice as far in ensuring that no Kansas City-area child is denied the joys of camp because of disability or financial disadvantage. During this time, Camps for Kids will match your gift to participating camps dollar-for-dollar, up to $1500 per individual, until the camp has reached its approved match amount.

To donate to a particular camp, click on CAMPS in the menu above and then select the camp you want to help.

Or, to benefit all camps in our network and other Camps for Kids programs, click the DONATE button below.

Testimonials

Testimonal

“As we expected camp has been WONDERFUL. The genuine smile on (my daughter’s) face in the pictures I took at drop off and the ones the counselors are sending me are testament to what an amazing thing you are doing. Thank you so very, very much! ”

Testimonal

“I can see what other kids have gone through and how they survived. It helps me get through & conquer. We are all survivors. That’s a gift.”

Testimonal

“When I'm at camp, I feel like a normal kid. Some kids don't get to go outside because our parents are just working too much and too hard. At home, I'm just watching movies all day. I don't want to get too old to come to Wildwood.”

Testimonal

“Without the support of Camps for Kids and the matching fund, CHD Families would be unable to provide a free medically supervised summer camp for kids with Congenital Heart Defects.”

Testimonal

“I look back on the struggle of my childhood and one of the most important and best childhood memories I have include the time spent at camp with the amazing men and women who treated me like I was normal despite my struggle”
