About CampLauncher

CampLauncher is a dedicated non-profit organization focused on delivering transformative camp experiences to underserved neurodivergent youth. Our goal is to inspire and empower young people through outdoor adventures and personal development, fostering community and growth. We are a small, impactful organization that has provided more than 135 camperships over the past twelve years, totaling more than $450,000. At CampLauncher, we understand the incredibly powerful impact of summer camp. Camps play a vital role in teaching and fostering skills in natural learning environments alongside peers. They are immersive, structured, and supportive communities that ignite and accelerate the social and emotional fluency of young people. For neurodiverse individuals, the skills fostered at camp are even more essential to their lifelong success.

Our Mission

CampLauncher raises funds to provide need-based scholarships for campers to attend unique summer camps. These camp experiences provide opportunities for campers to realize their potential through transformative experiences.

Our Vision

We believe that all children deserve to have life changing summer camp experiences to build confidence and gain lifelong skills. Many families with neurodivergent children do not have the financial means for enriching summer activities. CampLauncher serves this role by enabling children and teens to access camp communities that embrace and celebrate their authentic selves. CampLauncher is committed to providing increased access for more families regardless of their financial need.
