What People Are Saying

Rainbow Camp has given me a safe space that I can be 100% myself and feel valid and loved

I learned a lot of things, a lot of new experiences that I am going to use in my life
moving forward. It exceeded my expectations!

This has been the most connection she has had since the pandemic.

My daughter has not stopped talking about camp. She loved meeting everyone, she is bragging about all her new friends around the world, and she loved that she was able to be herself and didnā€™t have to fear judgement from anyone.

Iā€™ve been going to rainbow camp for 2 years and it is amazing! I’ve not only made friends, Iā€™ve madeĀ family. I feel so accepted when I go and I can have a hate free week with loving counselors and caring friends. Thanks Chris and Harry! Canā€™t wait to come back next year šŸ™‚
