Donate

Keep the camp standing.

Every dollar to the Maintenance Fund goes to the things that keep the property usable for Scouts and other young people — tools, fuel, lumber, fence wire, mowing, insurance, and the next project on the list.

Where Your Gift Goes

Real things, on real ground.

The Maintenance Fund pays for the unglamorous work that keeps a camp a camp.

Tools & Equipment

Saws, mowers, hand tools, fuel, fasteners, and the consumables every project burns through.

Trails & Clearing

Brush hogging, cedar removal, fire-ring upkeep, and trail work to keep program areas safe and usable.

Insurance & Compliance

Liability coverage, property tax, filings, and the back-office costs of operating a 501(c)(3) responsibly.

Other Ways to Give

More than one path in.

By Check

Make checks payable to The Colbert Camp Foundation, Inc. and mail to: 9809 Belmont Drive, Lenexa, KS 66227.

In-Kind & Property

We accept gifts of equipment, materials, and real property that further the Foundation’s charitable purposes. Larger non-cash gifts may require pre-approval and an independent appraisal.

Stock & Securities

Gifts of appreciated stock can be especially tax-efficient. Reach out and we’ll provide our brokerage transfer instructions.

Volunteer a Saturday

Time on the property is as valuable as a check. Work days are scheduled seasonally — ask about the next one.
