The Memorial Campership Fund is an IRS Section 501c(3) non-profit organization and tax-deductible contributions are encouraged. Please contact us if you (or someone you know) would consider making a tax-deductible contribution to fund future camperships. In 2002, contributions from the Code Memorial Fund were merged into the RPA Memorial Campership Fund.
