Send More Kids to Camp Ten Oaks this Giving Tuesday!
About This Campaign
This Giving Tuesday, your gift helps Black, Indigenous and other young people of colour from 2SLGBTQ+ communities get to camp next summer!
This year's Giving Tuesday campaign is focused on supporting racialized children and youth from 2SLGBTQ+ families and communities who may have difficulties accessing camp. We're committed to creating safe, affirming, and magical camp experiences for children and youth - part of that means removing financial barriers to access for racialized communities.
Every year, donors make it possible for us to offer sliding-scale camp fees, making Camp Ten Oaks accessible to more families from 2SLGBTQ+ communities. Between 2021 and 2025, generous donors just like you sent 63 racialized campers to Camp Ten Oaks! This is equal to $73,505 in camp fees that would otherwise have been passed on to camper families. In 2019, our racialized camper population was at 19%. But due to campaigns like this, racialized camper representation was increased to 24% in 2024, 28% in 2025, and now 30% in 2026!
We can raise an incredible $25,000 to send more kids to camp!
Ten Oaks Project is committed to maintaining magical, safe, and affirming spaces for youth–and creating opportunities for communities that have been historically, systemically, and even intentionally excluded from camps. Our core value of social justice challenges us to provide equitable opportunities and representation in real and substantive ways.
We can only make this possible with your support.
