I've been going to Live Oak for 6 years now, and it has done nothing but good for my life. Ever since I started going, it's been a great place to make friends, spend time in the outdoors, and have fun.

Between January 2024 and June 2025, our Live Oak team is raising $1m (!) to support our growth and expansion, including an increase in camper enrollment of up to 50% as we move to our new site.

How your funds will be put to work

Live Oak’s work supports five strategic investment areas: Summer Camp, Wilderness Adventures, Gatherings, Year Round Growth Experiences, and Beyond Camp Support. See more about their recent impact in our 2024 End of Year Recap.

This $1m campaign will fuel major investments across our organizational priorities:

• $500,000 to increase our Scholarships for Summer Camp and Wilderness Adventures for youth ages 7-16.

• $250,000 to expand our Year Round Growth Experiences throughout middle and high school years.

• $250,000 to scale up our Beyond Camp Supports for hundreds of oldest campers and alumni in high school and college.
