Overview

Mission

Camp Casey’s mission is to provide safe, fun experiences for children and families affected by childhood cancer, sickle cell disease, and other life-threatening illnesses through accessible horseback riding programs.

What it reported doing in 2025

Horsey house calls delivers "horse camp" to children who are often too sick to attend regular summer camp. Camp casey knocks at the door with a horse on the doorstep to provide an afternoon of horse therapy and fun with families and friends. This program served 1,200 participants during the year.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 85% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

STRONG - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
