Provide a Life-Changing Camp Experience for Children from Military Families and Those with Unique Challenges

Project Overview

Camp Maple Leaf is a national registered charity dedicated to providing enriching sleepover camp experiences for children from Canadian Military families and those living with unique life challenges. Our three camp locations across Canada offer a supportive and exciting environment where children and families with similar life experiences can come together.

Why We Need Your Support

Many of our campers come from under-resourced families who struggle to afford camp fees. Your support will enable us to offer financial subsidies and transportation to access specialized programs tailored to the needs of children of Military families and children with unique challenges, such as those with physical or mental health issues, or those who have experienced trauma and those with conditions such as:

  • Dwarfism
  • Limb Differences
  • Osteogenesis Imperfecta (Brittle Bone Disease)
  • Alopecia
  • Skin Conditions
  • Facial Differences
  • Down Syndrome
  • Tourette's Syndrome

Our Goal

We aim to provide subsidies for the remaining 2024 camp sessions at Camp Maple Leaf, covering:

  • Camp fees for 36 children per week for 4 weeks: $130,000
  • Transportation costs: $20,000

These funds will cover camp fees and transportation, allowing children to access specialized programs tailored to their needs.

Our Legacy

Founded in 1955, Camp Maple Leaf has always supported Military families and their children. Since 2015, we have expanded our mission to include children with unique life challenges. Our camp provides a dedicated space for groups who would benefit from their own camp but lack the necessary resources.
