Camperships

Thanks to generous donors, St. Joseph’s Youth Camp is able to provide a limited number of camperships/scholarships to campers and counselors in need. Click here to donate to this fund!

Please be sure to complete all fields on this application. When you submit your application, you will receive an on-screen confirmation response that your application has been successfully submitted, and if not, please double-check that you have completed all required fields marked with asterisks. Please note that nearly all camperships are awarded to low-income families, and we make exceptions in only very specific circumstances. SJYC camperships are internally awarded based on the following criteria:

1. Ability to demonstrate low-income status by participation in either: Free and Reduced Lunch, Food Stamps, Program/Nutrition Assistance (SNAP Program), or another similar program.

2. Extreme Family/Situational Difficulty.

Those of greatest need are awarded first, seeking particularly to make the greatest impact on low-income youth. Camperships are awarded based on the funding available. Please note we are very rarely able to award full scholarships.

April 2024 Update: We have received far more requests than we can fill. Our Campership Application for Summer 2024 is currently closed. Please join our mailing list to be made aware when the application reopens!
