Scholarships

We understand that living with Type 1 diabetes is expensive. We do everything in our power to make our programs as affordable as possible for our participants. The true cost for one camper to attend to attend Camp Morris is close to $1,500. Our camper fees are heavily subsidized thanks to the generosity of our donors, sponsors, and volunteers. We want EVERYONE to be able to experience the magic of camp!

How are scholarships determined?

1. Applicant is recipient of NC Medicaid or other governmental assistance
2. Gross household income in relation to the number of individuals in the household
3. Recent reduction in family income due to loss of employment
4. Multiple children living with T1D in the family
5. Documented, unanticipated high out-of-pocket medical expenses
6. Recommendations from a physician, social worker, therapist, etc.
7. Other extenuating circumstances, assessed on a case by case basis.

How do I apply for a scholarship for my camper?

The scholarship application is built into the regular camper application via your CampInTouch account.

What if my family cannot afford the non-refundable deposit?

If you are applying for a full or partial scholarship, and are unable to afford the non-refundable deposit, please let us know.
