HELP US REACH OUR GOAL OF $40,000
Camp Starlight has been creating lifelong memories for over two and a half decades now. We are in our 27th year and we couldn't be more excited. Our 27th roster of Circle-Ups, endless camp songs, infinite arts & crafts projects, and countless lives changed for the better.
We need your support — not just to make this the best year of camp ever, but to ensure that we can continue to offer a caring, safe, spiritual and FUN camp experience.
Founded in 1999, Camp Starlight is a week-long sleep-away summer camp for children in Oregon and Washington whose lives are affected by HIV/AIDS. Since the beginning, camp has been 100% volunteer-run and free for kids to attend.
Your donation will go directly to camp operations, making camp possible in 2024 and future years. As part of this campaign, an anonymous donor has agreed to match every donation up to $25,000 — which means every dollar you give is making double the impact for our campers.
Some of our campers are HIV-positive themselves, while others have someone in their immediate family — a parent, a sibling, a care-taker — who is infected. Camp Starlight creates an environment of fun, friendship and support for these children to cast aside their shared worries and fears around HIV and to just be kids for a week.
Thank you for your support!
