Our Mission

The Manitou Camps Foundation will be hosting a spring gathering on Thursday, May 20th in New York City. The event will feature food, drinks and a silent auction. All proceeds will go to support Manitou Experience, a program fully supported by the Manitou Camps Foundation. For specific details on the event or to make a contribution for the event, please contact Sara at .

Building upon last summer’s success, the Manitou Camps Foundation will be supporting three incredible programs this summer. Manitou Experience, it’s staple program for boys who have lost a parent, will host 50 boys this year. Summer Dreams, a leadership camp program for urban middle school boys from Boston, will see 90 boys this summer. Joining the group, for its first summer program, is the Seed School, from Washington DC. This impressive school will have 60 boys come up in June for a week of Leadership and fun. Similair to the Summer Dream’s porgram, these boys will get to experience the outdoors, group living, and many land, water and creative activities for the first time in their lives. The Manitou Camps Foundation, in its second summer of programming, is proud to give the camp experience to 200 boys this year!
