Monthly, quarterly, or annual gifts

When you give a little “s’more” each month, quarter, or year, you create a steady source of critical funds that allows camp to plan further into the future. You may even find that a small monthly gift—the price of a cup of coffee or two—is so easy to make, while adding up to a substantial annual gift!

Set up your recurring gift to Camp Tevya.
