WOHELO GIVING

Thank you for considering a donation to Wohelo. Each summer we offer partial and limited full scholarships to children of alumnae and to families for whom camp would not be possible.

 

Our scholarship cambers arrive full of appreciation for their opportunity and ready to dive into the Wohelo experience. Their diversity brings a rich and valuable dimension to the Wohelo community. Thank you for giving the gift of camp.
