Did You Know?

Although we are a nonprofit organization, we do not apply for any outside funding. Every camp scholarship we offer is personally underwritten by us—no grants, no government assistance, just a commitment to helping families.

There’s no paperwork involved. Families in need simply let us know what they can afford, and we cover the rest. Since our inception, we've proudly provided over $100,000 in scholarships to local families.

If you'd like to help support our mission and contribute to our scholarship fund, we’ve provided a Venmo link below. Every dollar goes directly toward giving a child the gift of camp.

Thank you for helping us keep camp accessible for everyone.

Use Venmo to connect with Actors Camp () - We are dedicated to creating a fun, enriching, memorable experience for your child!
