Financial Aid
Camp Thunderbird offers partial scholarships for those who qualify.We believe every individual with a developmental disability should have the chance to experience an unforgettable summer. If cost is a concern, financial assistance is available.
Who Can Apply
The Campership Fund provides support for families who need help covering the cost of camp. Assistance is based on financial need and reviewed confidentially each month beginning in January. There is no deadline to apply, but funds are first come, first served and may run out before camp begins.
