Camperships

No Kid Should Miss Camp Because of Money

A campership is a camp scholarship — and they exist because we believe every child deserves this experience, regardless of what their family's finances look like. Here's how to apply.

How the Campership Process Works

Step 1
Check with your home congregation first. Many churches offer camperships to their members.

Step 2
If your church doesn't offer camperships, or if additional support is needed, apply directly through the Sugar Creek application link below.

Step 3
Complete the online or paper campership application form. It's short, straightforward, and confidential.

Step 4
Wait for a reply. We review and respond as quickly as possible.
