Camp Oakhurst relies on contributions from individuals and foundations to maintain its historic policy of serving everyone without regard to their ability to pay. Scholarships for summer camp are available to everyone who needs one.

The NY Service for the Handicapped, which owns and operates Camp Oakhurst, is tax exempt in NY and NJ and under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Contributions are tax deductible.

• $1,500 provides a full Scholarship for one 2 week session.
• $ 750 pays for one week of summer camp for a child or an adult.
