William Moffat Sponsorship Program

Each year Camp Bickell/J P Bickell Outdoor Centre solicits sponsorships from local businesses, service clubs and individuals to sponsor children at camp that may not have the financial resources to attend. This sponsorship program is named after the late William Moffat, who initiated the program in 1987, by donating $2,000 to send kids to camp.

Depending on the number of sponsorships raised each year, all elementary schools, from a geographical area of Hearst to Temagami, are given the opportunity to send a kid to camp. The youngsters are referred to Camp Bickell/J P Bickell Outdoor Centre by the principals of these schools. The children come from all school boards, French and English, Public and Catholic.

 

Camp Bickell wants to give as many children as possible the opportunity to go to summer camp!  Your donation makes a big difference!

 

The cost to send one child to camp for a week is $460.00.  The Camp Bickell Foundations and other fundraisings has help us keep the charge to each camper below cost.  However for some families even our reduced cost is too much. That is why your donation is so important!

 

Donations of any amount will be gratefully accepted. Charitable receipts will be issued for tax purposes.

 

Please take part in this sponsorship program!
