CAMP FIRE FIRST TEXAS

Every Part of a Child Matters. Your Gift Helps All of Them Shine.

At Camp Fire First Texas, we know that every child holds a spark — a unique mix of talents, dreams, and potential. When nurtured, that spark grows into confidence, creativity, academic skills, and the life skills needed to thrive. This is our Whole Child Approach, and it’s at the heart of everything we do. 

 

On North Texas Giving Day, You Can Help Every Part Shine

Camp Fire believes that the experiences young people have today shape the adults they become tomorrow. Through hands-on, evidence-based experiences rooted in nature, belonging, and meaningful relationships, young people don't simply learn new skills, they discover confidence, resilience, purpose, and their own potential. Your North Texas Giving Day gift makes those life-shaping experiences possible.

Your Support Reaches Every Corner of a Child’s Life: 

• Confidence to take healthy risks and try new things
• Creativity to imagine possibilities and solve problems
• Life Skills like teamwork, communication, and resilience

Academic Support through hands-on, project-based learning 

When you give to Camp Fire, you’re helping every part of a child shine — now and for years to come. 

Our Programs: 

When you give to Camp Fire this North Texas Giving Day, you’re helping kids grow in every way — in the classroom, after school, at camp, and beyond. Here’s how your support makes a difference: 

Camp El Tesoro A place where adventure meets growth. At Camp El Tesoro, kids explore the outdoors, discover new skills, and build resilience through “challenge by choice.” From archery and canoeing to campfire songs and team challenges, every experience fosters confidence, independence, and lifelong friendships.

Afterschool Programs Safe, engaging spaces where learning continues after the bell rings. Our afterschool programs combine academic support, hands-on STEAM projects, creative arts, and outdoor play — giving kids the tools to succeed in school and in life, while building confidence and social skills.

Teens in Action Leadership with purpose. Teens in Action empowers young people to take charge of their future and their community through service-learning, skill-building workshops, and mentorship. Participants graduate with stronger communication, teamwork, and problem-solving skills — ready to lead wherever life takes them.

Early Education Apprenticeship Program Stronger educators mean stronger starts for children. This unique program offers early childhood teachers on-the-job training, mentoring, and professional credentials, ensuring that our youngest learners have the quality care and education they deserve from day one.

Your gift strengthens every part of a child — building confidence, creativity, skills, and dreams.

Together, we can nurture the whole child for a lifetime!
