Camp Trillium runs over 50 different programs each year, and all are run at no cost to our campers. We are able to do this without any government funding – we are supported entirely by donations from individuals, service clubs, businesses, and foundations.
For a brief overview of Camp Trillium, and how your donations will benefit children with cancer and their families, read our Q & A.

Make an in-kind donation
Keeping a camp fully stocked is a hard job. Keeping two camps fully stocked year-round is even more challenging. You can support OuR Island and Rainbow Lake by donating your new and used supplies, or by becoming an official camp sponsor. Download our Wish List & Sponsorship packages to learn more.
Run or sponsor an event
A majority of our funds every year come from events. These events are what allows us to offer our program for no cost to children with cancer and their families.

Once you’ve read the documents above, send an email to Carrie Arnold, Manager of Special Events, with the details about your event, and how you would like us to help.
Other ways to donate
Donate a Car Canada accepts Vehicle Donations for Camp Trillium. Free towing is provided in most areas across Canada, or you can drop off your vehicle to maximize your donation. When you donate your car, truck, RV, boat, or motorcycle to Camp Trillium through Donate A Car Canada, it will either be recycled or sold at auction (depending on its condition, age and location). Donate a Car Canada will look after all the details to make it easy for Camp Trillium to benefit. After your vehicle donation is complete, our charity will send you a tax receipt and will put your gift to good use.
