Camp Lilac's mission is to provide a safe, welcoming space where gender diversity is the norm. Since 2017, we've hosted an overnight camp space in which trans and gender diverse kids get to experience all the camp trappings (campfires, canoes, s'mores, and more!) without many of the challenges of the outside world.

Our affirming program allows campers to create lasting memories and build a community of other youth, leading to incredible outcomes including decreased stress, anxiety, and more. As a small nonprofit, donations help us fund every aspect of camp, from space rental to food and activities.

To celebrate our 10th season, we aim to raise $10,000 by the end of the year! Join us to make a positive impact on trans youth this summer. Not able to make a monetary donation? See more ways to support Camp Lilac's 2026 season.
