The Foundation formally solicits approximately 800 alumni, current parents and friends once a year, during the late fall with our Newsletter “On Squam”. Any size gift is appreciated, from $10 to the cost of a half ($5,900) or full summer at camp ($10,200). Several alumni have given the equivalent of a camper’s tuition to support a camper for as many years as he is a camper. (We do not accept restricted donations, and we do not release the names of the Foundation campers.) Gifts In-Kind, appreciated stock, matching corporate gifts, and bequests are additional ways to help perpetuate the Foundation’s missions.
Monetary Donations can be made in any one of 5 ways:
- via USPS : write a check to the Deerwood Foundation and mail to: Bruce Wilhelm, 133 Edgewood Road, Cornwall, VT. 05753
