Campership Subsidy for Accessible Camps

The Cerebral Palsy Association of BC helps people live a life without limits with the Campership Program, which financially assists individuals of all ages to attend an accessible camp of their choice in BC.

Our camp subsidies have gone towards costs such as partial camp fees, transportation, and attendant care fees.

Without the help of an attendant, many individuals could not attend camp. Although the camp session itself may be free to the participant, the expensive attendant care fee can be a barrier for people wishing to attend camps.

Summer is a time for having fun and feeling free. If you would like to contribute towards next year’s Campership program, you can make a donation on our website (click here) or call us at 604-408-9484
