2025 Year-End Campaign: Keep Wa-Ya Moving!

Did you know that your registration fees only pay for about half of the cost of running Camp Wa-Ya’s summer program?  Until recently, the other 50% was covered by Youth Programming Grants but in 2025 we saw cuts to our funding and we are facing a $30,0000 budget gap.  We need your help to bridge the gap and keep Wa-Ya moving for years to come!

Wa-Ya plays an important role in our community - getting kids outside, sharing Indigenous culture, and providing all kids the opportunity to go to camp through our scholarship program.  Please consider including us in your year-end funding.

Here’s some examples of how your donation can make an impact:

$50 buys a Discover Pass for the summer - this allows us to visit State Parks and Boat Ramps for free!

$100 fuels one of our vans for a week - this helps us get our kids out of the city and into the nearby public lands and waterways.

$345 sends a youth in need to camp for a week! We have provided over $20,000 in scholarships a year to youth in foster care, Tribal youth, and low-income families - help us continue to provide this transformative experience!

$500 purchases a new (used) kayak - and gets more kids out on the water!
