SCOPE-Summer Camp Opportunities Promote Education

SCOPE-Summer Camp Opportunities Promote Education SCOPE provides children from under-resourced communities with overnight summer camp scholarships How does SCOPE work?
1.

SCOPE (Summer Camp Opportunities Promote Education) provides children from underserved communities with life changing opportunities through the experience of summer camp. SCOPE helps fund camp scholarships “camperships” to send children who commit to staying in school to nonprofit, resident camps which will empower them to develop to their full potential. SCOPE reinforces the connection between ac

ademic achievement and the enriched recreational and social educational experiences at summer camp. By making a long-term commitment to our SCOPE campers, we seek to inspire and empower them to succeed as individuals and make a positive impact on their families and in their home communities. SCOPE campers are children who are enrolled in public school or public charter school (ages 7 – 16) and qualify for the USDA Free or Reduced Lunch Program. They attend nonprofit, resident camps in the New York/Tri-State area, Midwest, Southeast, and Southwest. SCOPE raises funds from foundations, businesses, individual gifts and fundraising events

2. SCOPE allocates funds to participating SCOPE camps to provide camp scholarships

3. Participating camps enroll campers; campers are selected in partnership with public schools, public charter schools, and community agencies

4. SCOPE campers make a commitment to stay in school in order to return to camp summer after summer

5. SCOPE campers who graduate from high school will be eligible for a college scholarship

1,600+ pathways to potential start this summer ☀️

This year, children and teens from under-resourced communities will attend one of 81 SCOPE partner camps across the country, marking our largest reach yet.

From the Northeast to the Midwest, Southeast, Southwest, and now the West, SCOPE is helping more young people access life-changing opportunities through camp, classroom, college, and career.

To everyone who has supported SCOPE’s mission, thank you. Your generosity is creating opportunities for young people to grow, build confidence, discover belonging, and imagine brighter futures. Because of you, more children will experience the transformative impact of camp this summer and carry those experiences with them far beyond the season. 💙

From the Midwest, for the Midwest 💜

The impact of the Midwest Benefit didn’t end when the night was over. This incredible community came together to invest in futures, creating more opportunities for children and teens to experience the life-changing impact of overnight summer camp this summer.

Because of your support, more young people will have the chance to build confidence, resilience, friendships, and pathways to potential that last far beyond camp 🏕️

At last Thursday’s 2026 SCOPE Midwest Benefit, Julia, a SCOPE Campership recipient, took the stage and shared a powerful reminder of what camp can make possible.

Thanks to the generosity of this community, campers like Julia have the chance to grow their confidence, find their voice, and create memories that last far beyond the summer.

This is the lasting impact of camp 🏕️💜

We believe in what camp makes possible 💛

In confidence.
In connection.
In moments that change how a child sees themselves.

Because when kids are given access, everything shifts. In school, in life, and in what they believe they can become.

This is SCOPE🏕️

This is what access looks like 💚

A first time away from home.
A new friend.
A moment of “I can do this.”

Through SCOPE, summer camp becomes a starting point. Building confidence, independence, and a path forward from camp to classroom to college to career.

This is the impact behind everything we do.
