Invest in the Future with YMCA Camp Ocoee

Have you ever thought about what it means to truly invest in the future?  At YMCA Camp Ocoee, your gift goes far beyond dollars- it transforms lives.

When you support Camp Ocoee, you're helping shape tomorrows leaders, dreamers, and adventurers.  Your generosity directly funds:

  • Financial Assistance for families in need
  • Exceptional staff and facility maintenance
  • Programs that inspire achievement, belonging and meaningful relationships

For over a century, Camp Ocoee has been more than just a place- it's a launching pad for personal growth and lifelong values.  Camp Ocoee's purpose is to provide experiences, under a strong Christian emphasis, that will build character and strengthen the values of caring, honesty, respect, responsibility and faith for all.

"This has been such an invaluable experience for her and a blessing for us that cannot be expressed sufficiently in words.  The feeling of being able to give your child hope and a new perspective on life is priceless and we could not have provided this without the generosity of the donors." - Camp Parent

YMCA Camp Ocoee Endowment Fund

Gifts to the Camp Ocoee Endowment Fund provide funding for camp scholarships. The Endowment Fund draws only on interest, never on principal. In this way we give everyone, and especially our youngsters, the security of knowing something about their future... that there will always be a Y. A gift of $10,000 will endow one scholarship a year for eternity.  

Gifts take many forms including a bequest through one's will or trust, appreciated assets such as stock, naming the YMCA as the beneficiary of a life insurance policy or retirement account, or by making a direct cash contribution. A gift can be structured to provide financial security for you, as a donor, and your heirs while maximizing its impact for the Y. As a member of the Heritage Club, you send a message to the next generation that says, "We Care!"
