Jameson Camp

You can help young people deepen their commitment to school, learn to make better choices,  and see long-term improvement of their physical and mental wellbeing. You can give children and teens opportunities to explore the outdoors, play sports without barriers, and celebrate progress.

Your gift today gives young adults opportunities to develop transferrable skills that increase employability. You help build a generation of young people skilled in leadership, decision-making, planning and organizing, communication, interpersonal interactions, and teamwork.

For nearly 100 years, thousands of children and teens have discovered their strengths on our lush 130-acre campus in the heart of Indiana. 

You can inspire community and resiliency in children and teens facing structural inequities by supporting the place that give them the acceptance, safety, support, and experiences they need to thrive today and tomorrow. 

Your gift makes it possible to bring together a diverse community of young people who build lasting friendships while learning acceptance and kindness.

Indiana’s children and teens are depending on Hoosiers coming together to invest in our collective future.

Your gift sponsors camperships, funds year-round youth leadership and outdoor education programming, and maintains a safe and beautiful urban oasis for young people to explore.

Since beginning in 1928 as a nutrition camp for children impacted by tuberculosis, supporters of Jameson Camp have helped meet the health and wellness needs of children. Your donation helps Jameson Camp continue to provide:

• respite care for grieving children and 
• camping and travel opportunities for boys without fathers
• community for children impacted by HIV/AIDS, 
• safe places for LGBTQ+ youth, and 
• support for children living with ADHD and Autism. 

Your donation helps provide campers with a 1:5 counselor-to-camper ratio plus on-site behavioral specialists.

With your support, we can create resilient generations who have the skills, confidence, and community they need to thrive.
