Ways to Help
Every summer since 1920, Camp Hazen YMCA has been committed to helping youth develop valuable life skills through camping experiences that build healthy bodies, open minds and awakened spirits. The experience the children have while at camp is second to none. It is an environment where they feel safe, secure and accepted. While at camp, children learn life skills that will help them grow into caring, honest, responsible and respectful adults.

Often, the children who most need our help building a bright future aren’t able to afford the camp fees. Each summer, camp provides funds for more that 200 deserving children to attend camp. In addition, we realize that all children are at risk today, and can benefit from a caring, supportive and nurturing environment. Our goal is to keep camp affordable for all children.

This is where you can help. Your gift to our Annual
Strong Kids Campaign will allow us to meet the growing number of requests for financial aid, and will help keep camp affordable for all!

Endowment and Planned Giving  FROM GENERATION TO GENERATION  -That the spirit of Camp Hazen YMCA be enhanced and handed from generation to generation for the good of tomorrow’s youth.  With over 85 years of service to youth, we are mindful of the need to secure our future for the next 85 years and beyond. The Camp Hazen YMCA Endowment and Planned Giving Program was established to provide continuity, stability and preservation of our most cherished values. Hazen’s endowment funds allow us to pursue our goals with confidence that our Mission will be experienced by future generations.
