Sponsor a child for summer camp in 2025!
Children from low-income families are significantly less likely to attend summer programs, with parents citing cost as a major barrier.
According to a recent survey, 38% of families making less than $50,000 per year said their child participated in a structured activity during the summer in 2023, compared to 67% of parents making $100,000 or more — nearly a 30% gap.
Sponsor a child to attend our summer program with a Campership!
The DiSYPles summer program keeps kids learning all summer long with daily activities that emphasize STEM and reading. Students enjoy field trips and experiences that encourage them to try new things. Summer camp also helps them grow as people and connect with their peers.
DiSYPles provides an enriching six-week camp experience, costing $500 per camper. We aim to raise $12,500 to fund camperships for 25 campers, allowing families to send their children to camp free of charge.
