Every Little Bit Counts

We are a nonprofit 501(c)(3) charitable organization.  The Camp Discovery Board is very grateful to our past and current supporters, who have provided the resources to allow us to make Camp available to all children at absolutely no cost.  Everyone involved with Camp Discovery is a volunteer and no salaries or stipends are granted.  No fees or tuition are charged to the parents.

Funds are raised from local organizations like Count Your Blessing, the Doylestown Rotary, the Newtown Rotary, the Greater Newtown Exchange Club, the Ludwig Foundation, Bucks County Retired Teachers as well as many individual donations.  

In recent years, fundraising has been more challenging than ever.  The biggest expense is the rental of the campground followed by the cost of feeding 100 people every day for the week.  Unfortunately, costs are rising, and donations are becoming more difficult to obtain.  Even with our amazing team of volunteers, we need financial resources for food and rental costs, insurance, class supplies and much more.
