For all of time, women have been the gatekeepers of home and heart; the center of their families, the anchor that holds it all together for everyone else. ​

Since 2013, Campowerment’s retreats, and the community that comes from them, have given women the space to refuel and re-ignite their lives…to return home ready to greatly impact those around them. ​

Give Her Camp (FEIN: 81-1407528) makes Campowerment possible for women who are not only ready to up the ante on their own lives, but to pay it forward, empowering others in their communities at home.

When you empower women, you transform communities.
Are you passionate about empowering women who could change the world, but first: need help reconnecting to their inner spark?

Every $2,200 raised is directly funneled into the provision of...
The Campowerment Retreat Experience
Four days away, disconnected from responsibilities, to re-ignite her life! Includes her full stay at an upscale summer camp, where all her needs are thoughtfully supported by women who are "in it" by her side
Community Care: Before & After
From the moment the scholarship is extended, each honoree is paired with a mentor who's walked her path in years past. Plus, there's dedicated onboarding to each year's "class" and all-camp post-care, to integrate once home.
A Network of Resources
Above and beyond all direct support provided is the value of a true, connected community of women. From the thought leaders who provide game-changing insight and access from camp's start to long after its finish, to the professionals and caretakers who become camp friends, once you're here, you're family - and family takes care of family - through whatever life brings.

    Our campers range in age from 21* to 83 (for real) and they take planes, trains & automobiles from all ends of the globe (U.S., Canada, UK, France, Australia, New Zealand). About 54% of them are repeat campers; 46% are first-timers.

    Some are top Hollywood executives; others recent college grads; USPS employees; entrepreneurs; police officers; thrill-seekers; full-time moms; first-time managers; bloggers and beyond.

    Actually, it’s kind of the best networking on the planet: because nobody** is allowed to say what she does for a living for the first 24 hours, so we get real personal, real quick! Will you fit in? Yes: promise.
