Making a Difference in the Lives of Children through Great Experiences! For four generations, the Vance family has attended Camp at College Settlement.

Your donation can help to keep us here for the next four generations!

 

There are many ways to give to College Settlement and the Summer Camps at College Settlement. Donations of all sizes, whether they are one-time or recurring, make a difference.


Without the support of gifts from our generous donors, College Settlement would not have the resources to provide a life changing camp experience to the children that need it most.


Donate via VISA, MASTERCARD, DISCOVER, ECHECK or PAYPAL.

Did you know that it costs Summer Camps at College Settlement over $2,500 per camper for a 12-day overnight session? Continuing our ongoing mission to serve all families, we charge as little as $75 and at most $865 for a 12-day session to overnight camp. Donations from individuals are crucial to fill the gap.


Most of our campers in our 12-day session pay $184, which covers a bit under 10% of our actual operating costs. Gifts of any amount are gratefully accepted throughout the year. 


To donate, you can mail a donation check to our Camp Office at College Settlement, Attn: Camper Fund, 600 Witmer Rd, Horsham, PA. 19044, or donate now by clicking the "Send a Child to Camp" button below.

Other Ways To Help

An Outright Gift of Cash is the easiest gift to make. To qualify for a federal income tax charitable deduction for this calendar year, just make your check payable to College Settlement and mail it on or before December 31st.


A gift in honor or memory is a special way to acknowledge and remember the important people in our lives. When a Memorial or Honor gift is received by College Settlement, a letter is sent to the donor to acknowledge the gift, as well as to any persons that the donor indicates should receive acknowledgment of the gift.


A matching gift increases the value of your gift at no additional cost to you, allowing you to double or triple the impact of your gift. Your employer may do this for you.  


Gifts of Securities | While gifts of cash are simple to make and fully deductible, gifts of securities are frequently the most advantageous donation from a tax perspective. Gifts of long-term, appreciated securities are fully deductible up to a maximum of 30% of your adjusted gross income.


Through your United Way designation | Our giving number is 00027. Designated giving forms are available from the United Way of Greater Philadelphia and Southern New Jersey at 215-665-2500 or from your company’s Employee Campaign Chair. If you are outside of the United Way of Greater Philadelphia and Southern New Jersey just use 600 Witmer Road Horsham PA 19044 and College Settlement.


Gifts Through IRA’s, Wills, and Trusts | More and more donors who care deeply about College Settlement and our mission of serving children are making gifts through their wills and trusts, or by beneficiary designation.
