Overview

Mission

Since its inception in 1988, our charitable mission has been to (1) promote and preserve the legacy and natural resources of historic Camp Oak Hill; (2) provide outdoor recreational activities and opportunities for the appreciation of nature through instructional programs, nature walks, and meditation; (3) provide affordable overnight retreat facilities that create a welcoming environment for the enjoyment of the many diverse individuals, families, and communities represented by our guests; (4) prioritize minority and low-income families, children, youth (ages 14-24), and organizations serving those populations in the Mid-Atlantic region; and (5) subsidize all of these services for at-risk populations through charitable contributions and revenues generated by full-priced rentals of Camp Oak Hill facilities.

What it reported doing in 2025

XxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxMid-Atlantic region. We hosted a total of 40 groups (14% increase) with a total of 1,097 guests (45% increase) in 2025. Of these 40 groups, 29 (72%) groups with a total of 759 guests (51% increase) met our primary tax-exempt purpose of serving at-risk populations. These populations accounted for 69% (759) of our guests, and these groups received at least a 40% discount on pricing. This significant subsidy either made a group's camp experience possible or allowed them to bring more campers. Examples are 4-day camps for teenage boys and another for teenage girls from an organization in Baltimore, MD, a Delaware 4-H Club, a Yeshiva school retreat, and a church youth retreat for low-income families. The 11 groups that paid full price plus charitable donations accounted for more than 50% of our revenues, allowing us to subsidize the children, youth, and family camps that are the focus of our nonprofit mission.

Operating model

Revenue model

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filed totals do not add up and assets have declined or grown slowly.
