Campaign Overview
The future of Roundup River Ranch is taking shape now.
We never want a child to wait to experience the life-changing moments of camp. Roundup River Ranch is the only medical camp in Colorado that provides comprehensive programming to this well-deserving population at zero cost to the family. Creating a world of possibilities for children with serious illnesses and their families is our responsibility. That’s why it is imperative that now, and for all the tomorrows ahead, every child and family who wishes to attend camp should be welcomed without charge.
Unique among camps, Roundup River Ranch is leading the way in addressing the importance of financial sustainability. With an operating budget dependent upon annual contributions, we must protect Roundup’s mission against unforeseen circumstances, fluctuations, and financial downturns, while assuring excellence and growth. Guided by our commitment to Excellence, Sustainability, and Growth, we have identified a need for at least $27 million to provide for the future. You can help us get there.
“For every child who attends, there are many more who could benefit. Our goal is to reach more campers – through expanding our campsite and delivering camp to children wherever they need us most” – Ruth B. Johnson, JD, President Emeritus
