Pay it forward: Grown Ups Rally to Ensure Every Child Experiences the Magic of Camp

The Portsea Camp is thrilled to launch the first-ever “Camp Out for the Kids” fundraiser, where senior business, education, and community leaders will camp out to raise vital funds.

This unique event aims to ensure that no child misses out on the transformative experience of camp due to economic or other disadvantages.

By coming together and spending a night under the stars, participants will help provide subsidized or free camp opportunities for children in need, promoting physical and mental well-being through outdoor activities and meaningful connections.

Join us in making a difference—register to camp out or sponsor our CEO to camp out today!

How will my donations make a difference?

Where do my fundraising dollars go?

Young people may choose a 5-day Adventure Camp, a 3-day wellness or journeybased camp, or a 5-day leadership and resilience camp.

Absolutely, contact us and we will show you how to do that. We have Regional Area Coordinators who can work with you to direct your support to the communities and children that need it most.

I have business or personal ties to a town or region but can't Camp Out, can I make a donation for a specific region or town instead?

Yes, you can. Our Regional Area Coordinators will keep track of funds tagged to a specific region and will work with local schools, service clubs and agencies to identify local children most in need of support
