Each summer at St. Thomas More Center, campers find a safe and positive community where they are transformed by dynamic Catholic spirituality combined with the fun and activities of Catholic Youth Camp.   This summer our camp theme is Cultivating Divine Friendship.                    

Inability to pay must not be a barrier to attending camp. We strive to keep camp fees as low as possible, even as operating expenses continue to increase. Last summer, of the 1672 campers who had a CYC experience, close to 15% were supported by sponsorship assistance.

We are grateful for the support of parishes and individuals who make camp possible for so many.

This year we are aiming to raise $40,000 for scholarship assistance. Without your support this assistance will come from our operating budget instead of our Camper Sponsorship Fund.

We need your help.

"I want to first start by saying THANK YOU for any consideration you give to help my girls go to camp.  With the rising cost of everything from groceries, bills, rent, etc., it will be very hard for me to afford camp this year. My girls love going to CYC and continuing to practice their faith that they so deeply love.  This camp is phenominal for these kids and provides endless memories and friendships for my girls."

"My boys are foster kids - they have never had the opportunity to experience camp and are new to the Catholic faith.  It was an incredible blessing for them to receive the scholarship and be able to attend camp.  When I came to pick them up at the closing Mass, one of them was an altar server and my heart melted!"
