Overview
Mission
Camp's mission and current focus is to strengthen and inspire individuals with disabilities - and those who care for them - through recreation, respite and education.
What it reported doing in 2025
In 2025, camp served 1387 childen and adults with medical, intellectual, and developmental disabilities including: autism, intellectual disability, pervasive development delay, cerebral palsy, down syndrome, spina bifida, muscular dystrophy, and other life threatening or developmental disabilities. Additionally, camp had 1,198 volunteer counselors and healthcare volunteers who provided 137,833 hours. Summer sessions consisted of 8 distinct one week residential sessions at our 55-acre, 300 bed capacity camp in the Texas hill country where individuals participate in traditional, yet adapted camping activities such as swimming, horseback, canoeing, nature, etc. Campers develop independence and learn new skills.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 67% 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 - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and most voting board members are independent. Few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
