Summer Camp Scholarships
Camp Allen's summer camp program can be a priceless gift. Many are unable to attend summer camp for financial reasons. Camp Allen's scholarship fund matches funds from the applicant, and their affiliated church; however, each year those needing assistance exceed the scholarship funds available. Scholarship form can be obtained from the Episcopal Church near you. Camp Allen has one of the largest summer camp programs in the country. The tuition for one week of camp in 2008 is $486. Over 260 campers annually will receive financial support from the summer camp scholarship fund.
Read with care the words of one parent seeking a scholarship for her child:
"I am requesting this scholarship for my son because he really benefited from your camp last year. In sending him to camp, I was hoping that he would grow as an individual, become more independent, and that his self-esteem would be lifted. What he gained from camp last summer were not only new friends but he came home the happiest child I have ever seen. He was a new person and the Christian environment really helped. He had positive role models during camp and he made lifetime friends he is hoping to see again."
Please help support our youth ministry and make a donation of any denomination. Your gift will be deeply appreciated by a child whose life might be changed forever by Camp Allen.

General Donations
While we are most grateful for scholarship donations, a non-profit organization has many needs to be able to provide the programs and services for the camper beyond its normal operating budget. You may make a tax-deductible gift as a general donation or undesignated donation. Examples of how undesignated gifts will assist us: a portable sound system for the campsites, an emergency procedure for one of our horses, new hoses for the fire pumper truck or maintenance for our chapel organ, etc.
Major Gifts and Campaigns
Camp Allen has identified 8 major projects that impact the long term operations of the Camp. For example, the chiller system that services our main dining room and conference center complex will have to be replaced in the coming months. Details about our major gift campaign will be unveiled next quarter. If you are interested in assisting in the funding or participating in the leadership of this important campaign, CLICK HERE.
