Financial Assistance
Camp Kawartha wants every child to have a summer camp experience
We have options and ideas for campers who would not otherwise be able to attend our camp.
Financial assistance is available for overnight campers from low income families who do not have the financial means to afford the total cost.
Payment Plans
Deposit + 3 installments on January 31, March 31 and May 31
Monthly Installment Payment Plans available upon request for overnight camps. Pay the deposit with the balance paid in monthly installments up to May 31st. Please contact our admin office to setup a payment plan.
Applying for Assistance
Financial assistance is provided thanks to the generous support of donors in the community, foundations, fundraising events, and grants such as the Toronto Star Fresh Air Fund, or Kids-in-Camp charity.
