Parents sometimes ask how we can offer
our camp at such a low price. The answer is that we are committed to
raising money throughout the Freethought community, in order to underwrite
part of the cost of camp.
About
70% of the cost of running camp comes from campers' registration
fees. The remaining 30% comes from our generous donors. This year our
total budget is $20,000, and our fundraising target is $6,000 (close to
what we raised last year). Those of you who remember camp fondly from your
youth & would like to support the next generation of freethought - we're
counting on you.
You can support rational thought by
making a tax-deductible donation to Camp Quest West. We operate officially
as Atheist Alliance, an IRS 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization, and
can accept checks under the Camp Quest West name.
Credit cards may be used for making
donations using the Camp Quest West account with
Kagi.
Donations will go toward underwriting
the reduction in the camper registration fees. Registration fee is $390
thru May 15 ($460 thereafter) which is lower than the actual expenses of
approximately $600 per camper.
If you wish your donation to be
restricted to the support of campers with financial needs, a
tax-deductible contribution may be made through Kagi at
camperships.
Any amount is welcome. Send whatever is
right for you to:
