Roundup the Possibilities
CAMPAIGN UPDATE
Launched in 2020, The Roundup the Possibilities Campaign set out to roundup generosity, lasso resources, and offer more pure camp joy to children and families – today and for generations to come. Built on a commitment to excellence, sustainability, and growth, the Campaign was designed to broaden our reach, increase our capacity, and serve a more diverse number of illnesses.
Thanks to extraordinary donor support, we proudly surpassed our $27+ million goal in 2025. This milestone launched a powerful new chapter for Roundup River Ranch, including the groundbreaking at camp for three new cabins and expanded program spaces, opening in summer 2026.
Camp is often a turning point in a child’s journey – from uncertainty and isolation to resilience, friendship, and possibility. Through this Campaign, we are strengthening our ability to serve more children with life-altering diagnoses, enhancing mental health outcomes, and bringing greater joy, confidence, and normalcy to families navigating complex medical challenges. These efforts also support key initiatives outlined in our 2024–2026 Strategic Plan, ensuring lasting impact well into the future.
The Campaign will provide critical resources to:
• Serve 50% more campers annually (at no cost to families)
• Extend our geographic reach
• Add to the more than 80+ diagnoses currently served including an increased focus on campers with mental and behavioral health needs
• Provide new and innovative ways to deliver camp experiences, reaching campers where they need us
• Expand the activities and programs offered onsite
• Upgrade facilities and spaces to adapt to camper needs
• Build and outfit three new cabins
• Develop adequate financial reserves
• Provide a predictable stream of revenue to protect our mission
THANK YOU TO OUR GENEROUS DONORS
We are deeply grateful for your belief in our mission and for the generosity that made this historic achievement possible. Your support is creating more moments of joy, connection, and hope – while shaping the future of Roundup River Ranch.
