Financial Assistance Camperships

We Want to Help
Odyssey Teen Camp is proud to announce our campership fund! Our generous community of donors has made it possible for OTC to award families with assistance on a sliding scale.
To prioritize diversity & inclusion at camp, funds have been set aside specifically for Black & Indigenous campers and campers living in rural areas.
In addition, the friends and family of our dear friend Jeremy Ruehlemann have dedicated funds to the memory of Jeremy, who spent eight years with us as a camper and counselor. Read more about the Jeremy Ruehlemann Memorial Fund.
Campership Fund
Odyssey Teen Camp is committed to offering full and partial scholarships (“camperships”) to families who demonstrate financial need. While some camperships have specific requirements such as race, gender, and sexual orientation, ultimately, our goal is to help every teenager who wants to attend OTC to be able to do so.
