Why give monthly?
Giving monthly is the easiest way to give. As a Lightkeeper, your monthly tax deductible gift provides consistent, flexible income to fuel Camp Sunshine’s year-round work. Every month, you’ll know that your gift is supporting our ongoing programs to fulfill our mission: “To offer experiences that model and nurture a culture of inclusion, grace, and joy, through which people with and without disabilities can transcend barriers and value both their own gifts and the talents of others.”
How does monthly giving work?
When you join Camp Sunshine as a monthly donor, you can fill out our Lightkeeper form to set up a monthly charge to your credit card or monthly withdrawal from your bank account. We are also happy to accept monthly check payments.
What does my monthly gift support?
Since 1983, Camp Sunshine has offered individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities summer camp experiences in a safe, caring, and inclusive environment. Our programs are designed to meet the participants’ recreational, emotional, physical, spiritual, and relational needs. Campers and volunteer counselors are paired one-to-one, allowing each participant to feel included, learn from each other, and grow in friendship. Your monthly gift keeps Camp Sunshine shining brightly.
