Last night, this incredible group came together at camp for a note-writing and call night to help raise funds so more kids can experience the magic of Camp Jewell this summer. Because of their passion and commitment, we’ve already raised over $200,000 for this year’s camp campaign, in record time!

And we’re not stopping there. As we celebrate 125 summers at Camp Jewell, our goal is simple (and big): get as many kids to camp as possible.

If you haven’t yet, consider making a gift today and help open the door to a life-changing camp experience:

This year, we’re celebrating a HUGE milestone—125 years of Camp Jewell memories, traditions, and community! From unforgettable campfire moments to lifelong friendships, Camp Jewell has been shaping lives for over a century, and we can’t wait to celebrate all year long.

✨ Stay tuned throughout the year for throwback stories, fun facts, photos from the archives, and special moments that honor our past while celebrating what’s ahead.

Thank you to everyone who has been part of the Camp Jewell story—here’s to 125 years and counting

As we prepare for Camp Jewell’s historic 125th summer, we’re just steps away from reaching our $175,000 Annual Campaign goal, funds that directly provide scholarships for children who otherwise couldn’t experience the magic of camp.

And here’s the best part: An anonymous donor will match every gift made in December, up to $20,000!
That means your donation this month will go twice as far to help kids come to camp next summer.

If Camp Jewell has touched your life, or the life of someone you love, now is the perfect time to give back.

Make your year-end gift today: https://campjewell.org/donate
Every dollar opens the gate for a child to discover confidence, friendship, and adventure.

Thank you for helping us change lives, one camper at a time.

Give today, this is Y.
