Think you can't afford camp? Think again.

Our goal is to get every kid with type 1 diabetes to camp, and we will work with you to make this happen!

Financial Aid Options:

Monthly Installment payments: You can pay your camper's fee in equal installments each month. This option appears at checkout.
Camperships (scholarships): The "pay-what-you-can" option. To apply for a Campership, register your camper, and at the end of the registration process you will be asked if you would like to apply for a campership. The application will be emailed to you after your complete registration. The process is simple and eligibility is clearly outlined.
Sponsorships: Many community organizations are very supportive of Gales Creek Camp and "sponsor" (pay the fee for) campers. Consider approaching your local Lions Club, Kiwanis Club, or Rotary Club to see if they can help. If you don't know where to start, let us know and we can connect you.
