Sponsor a camper
One gift. One child. Everything they need to play, theirs to keep.
The one that changes the plan
A one-off gift pays for a child. A monthly gift lets us book ice a year ahead and tell a family in March that there is a spot in August.
Monthly is the one that changes the plan
A one-off gift pays for a child. A monthly gift lets us book ice twelve months ahead, tell a family in March that there is a spot in August, and stop guessing. Seventy dollars a month puts one child through a camp every year, for as long as you keep it going.

Three amounts, and exactly what each buys
No abstractions. Each of these is a real thing that a real child carries out of an arena.
One gear set
A helmet, skates, a stick, gloves, pads, pants and a jersey. One child carries all of it home on the Friday and none of it comes back.

One child, one camp
Four days of ice, professional coaching, dryland, lunch every day, and the gear. Everything one child needs, start to finish.

Two children
Two children who did not know each other on the Tuesday and who arrive on the Friday looking for each other.

Summer Camp 2027
Four days at Leaside for up to thirty children, gear included.
That is 7 children already paid for, and 20 still waiting.
The ask, in plain numbers
$860 covers one child: $380 for the equipment, and $480 for full set of gear the child keeps permanently. A half adoption of $500 covers the gear on its own. Any amount helps and nothing is too small.

Because corporate support delivers logo placement, named programme rights and media association, it can typically be recorded as a marketing or advertising expense. Please confirm the treatment with your finance team. This is not tax advice.
