Camp To Belong Northwest continues our incredible journey and dedication as we reunite brothers and sisters from the pacific northwest who are placed in separate foster, adoptive or kinship homes through our one of a kind Summer Camp Program. We are a large group of volunteers who work year round to raise the dollars needed every year to run this program. Every dollar we raise goes towards our campers!

Camp To Belong Northwest, now in its 4th year, replicates this proven program through a collaborative partnership and effort of the two states of Oregon, and Washington public child welfare programs, and two key non profit organizations that serve as our sponsors for our Oregon and Washington campers. Campers receive an exceptional experience filled with traditional camp activities. In fact, the request for camper spots for siblings has increased so much over this last season, that in 2009, we will host two summer camps to accommodate the increasing need!

In 2009, our goal is to serve 175+ youth in the Pacific Northwest through our two camps (dates and locations listed above).

Camp To Belong Northwest has proudly served over 400 youth from Oregon, Washington, Idaho, and some of our surrounding states in the Northwest like Alaska, and California. Camp To Belong Northwest relies solely on donations from individuals, businesses in the Northwest, Corporations and grants. We need your help; and we hope that you will remember Camp To Belong Northwest. Because of your generous support, we are making a difference for siblings living in foster care.
