Be part of something remarkable. Donate to Camp Summit as we break barriers and embrace abilities. Camp Summit proudly celebrates 78 years of providing barrier-free, residential camping experiences for children and adults with disabilities. Throughout the year, Camp Summit hosts 20 weeklong sessions designed with inclusion at the core. Campers enjoy swimming in a beach-entry pool, adapted archery, sports, fishing, music, art, and more—all customized to each individual’s abilities. For many families with a member who has a disability, traditional recreational experiences can be out of reach. Medical and caregiving costs often limit access to activities that promote joy, independence, and connection. Camp Summit works to eliminate these barriers, and North Texas Giving Day plays a critical role in making that possible.
How NTGD uplifts our mission:
Supports Families: Your donations provide respite for families and caregivers, giving them peace of mind and time to recharge.
Expands Financial Assistance: With support from NTGD, we provide camperships and financial aid to 90% of our campers, ensuring no one is turned away due to cost.
Strengthens Programs: Funds raised help us enhance adaptive activities, maintain our facilities, and hire the skilled staff needed to support a 2:1 camper-to-counselor ratio.
Increases Capacity: NTGD contributions allow us to serve over 1,300 individuals each year, including those with the most medically complex needs, thanks to our 24/7 on-site medical care.
Raises Awareness: The NTGD network helps us expand our reach and shine a light on the importance of inclusion, focusing on people’s abilities rather than their disabilities. NTGD draws new donors and volunteers to our cause and educates the broader public about the needs and strengths of individuals with disabilities.
