Overview

Mission

Camp For All transforms the world for children and adults with challenging illnesses, disabilities, or special needs.

What it reported doing in 2025

Camp For All partners with other nonprofit organizations to transform the lives of children and adults with challenging illnesses, disabilities, or special needs and their families, providing opportunities to discover hope, grow self-confidence, and realize they are not alone. More than 200,000 campers have attended since 1998. Camp For All in Burton, Texas, has the ability to serve nearly 9,000 campers, annually. Construction is almost complete on the second Camp in Chappell Hill, Texas, which will open in the summer of 2027. This will double the number of campers served to meet the ever-growing need. Barrier-free, both Camps welcome campers with cancer, autism, Muscular Dystrophy, lost limbs, spinal cord injuries, sickle cell, renal issues, epilepsy, visual and hearing challenges, and more.

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

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
