LGBTQ+ youth often face discrimination and exclusion, both at home and in their wider communities. LGBTQ+ youth face many challenges, both in and out of school. They are more likely to experience anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues. They are also at greater risk of being bullied, harassed, and physically assaulted.

For over 20 years, Camp Ten Trees has provided a safe and welcoming space for LGBTQ+ youth to explore their identity and build community through our residential camping programs. Our campers can enjoy all the traditional camp activities – from swimming and hiking to arts and crafts – without having to worry about discrimination or judgment. We have served campers from all over the United States and beyond.

Camp Ten Trees is a place for diverse youth who share common experiences to come together and form a community that is truly their own. Thanks to the support of generous donors like you, we are able to keep our programs accessible to all campers, regardless of their ability to pay. Your donation helps build truly transformative experiences.
