The Camp Nebagamon Charities website www.cncharities.org is dedicated to both the Camp Nebagamon Scholarship Fund (CNSF) and Camperships For Nebagamon (CFN). Nebagamon’s alumni community has stepped up support for our affiliated charities in recent years in meaningful ways. In addition to generous direct support, alumni have increasingly encouraged donations to one or both funds as memorials and to honor happy occasions. Learn about different donation options, read about each charity, and more at the website.
Donors to the Camp Nebagamon Scholarship Fund (CNSF) help children and teens who experience poverty and disability attend non-profit summer camps that specialize in meeting their needs. CNSF will help more kids than ever before to attend camp in the summer of 2018. Thanks to CNSF tuition scholarships 240 kids attended non-profit camps in the summer of 2017—up from 225 in 2016 and 175 in 2015.
Recipient camps (located near communities where Nebagamon campers and alumni live) offer expert therapeutic and adaptive recreation and a nurturing environment for kids who have been exposed to adversity and trauma. Children are among peers and role models for success at camps where they enjoy friendship, adventure and personal growth—opening new possibilities for a more positive future.
CNSF was founded in 1947 by Muggs and Janet Lorber, Nebagamon’s founding directors, and administered for 50+ years by Nebagamon’s former directors, Nardie and Sally Lorber Stein. To learn more, see CNSF’s website, Instagram, Facebook page and video.
CNSF would like to thank our generous donors who supported the fund between November 1, 2017 and April 30, 2018:

Founded in 1995, Camperships for Nebagamon (CFN) helps send children to Camp Nebagamon and Camp WeHaKee, who otherwise could not afford it. These campers, from a wide range of backgrounds, enjoy life-changing experiences while enriching the camp community, making it more diverse, more inclusive, and more a place of welcome for all. A 501(c)(3) charitable organization, CFN supports campers for multiple years, giving them sustained access to a summer community in which to build lifelong friendships and identity. Since 2007, CFN has given over 500 camperships, totaling $2 million, and has helped over 250 children go to camp.
