DONATE
There are still numerous ways you can make an impact at Wigwam. Consider contributing to our Campership fund or capital campaign.
How Can You Make an Impact
Consider contributing to our Campaign for the Future or the Campership fund to build a healthy vision for future generations and make a difference in a boy’s life by sharing the experience of a lifetime.
Join us in preserving the magic of our beloved camp for generations to come. As alumni, your connection to our camp runs deep, woven into the very fabric of your fondest memories. Now, it's time to extend that connection beyond the nostalgia, to leave a lasting legacy for future campers. Contribute here.
We are so proud to say that the scholarship arm of Camp Wigwam has sprouted from a third-generation Wigwam family, Joe (2014-present), Dan (’81-’86), and Moe Finkelstein (’54-’59). Through Ubuntu Camp Connections alumni can support Wigwam by making it more accessible to deserving families while ensuring robust enrollment and operations. Donations are tax-deductible.
Or contact Bob or Neal to discuss sponsoring a camper, either individually or as a group of alumni.
