Financial Assistance
In addition to tiered pricing, we have camperships available for EVERY event at The Refuge. We are a non-profit with a mission and we are commited to ensuring that no one misses one of these transformational opportunities due to cost. When you register, there will always be an opportunity to pay a small deposit and then request financial assistance in whatever amount makes it possible for you to attend. See Campership Information for details.
Apply to be a Camp Counselor
There is nothing as rewarding as helping to facilitate a group of campers in creating a little taste of the world as it should be. There are many opportunities to be engaged, from weekend retreats to week-long sleepaway camps.
