Growing up is hard.
Camp Fire connects young people to the outdoors, to others, and to themselves.
We envision a world where all young people thrive and have equitable opportunities for:
WE ARE INCLUSIVE.We work to create safe and inclusive environments, so everyone feels welcome.
We learn from and respect our planet. We conserve, protect, and steward our natural resources.
We develop supportive cross-generational relationships that guide young people to find their spark.
THE POWER OF YOUNG PEOPLE.We believe one of the best ways to honor the power of young people is to share power with them.
We help young people (and adults!) invest in the adventure of self-discovery.
We encourage young people to advocate, organize, and work for change in their communities and beyond.
Each council has the autonomy to customize its programming to best support youth, families, and their communities
We seek out the newest research, practice every-day innovation, and meticulously measure results—all to help young people thrive in a complex world.
