We rely on your contributions to keep the dream alive.
Parents of children with special needs face enormous financial burdens. We are committed to ensuring that no child misses a camp experience due to financial constraints. Please join with us to provide the “simple joys of childhood” to children with special medical needs. While most of our campers contribute to the cost of attending camp, we rely on the generosity of people like you to help fill the gap. The camp has virtually no overhead, so your entire donation goes directly to programs, site improvements and scholarships for campers.
Your support can take many forms:
Donate to the General Fund
All of our special-needs programs are heavily subsidized. We count on your kindness to make ends meet.
Support Our Campership Fund
Typically it costs $780 to send a camper to Tuolumne Trails for a week. Your donation will help ensure that no one is left out. Your donation will be reserved to support campers with financial hardships.

Join the fun by volunteering your time and energy
At Tuolumne Trails, we never run out of work to do! If you would like to help, just let us know. At least twice each year, we have volunteer work days to perform maintenance and provide improvements on the facility, but we also have projects going all year long. Sign up for our volunteer newsletter to keep abreast of all the opportunities to get involved.
For the safety of our campers, we require that anyone on site when campers are present go through the LIVESCAN fingerprinting process.
