The Camp Rhino Story
Back in 2016 a group of individuals, foundations, and churches in the Greater Toronto Area recognized that the vast majority of children of our immigrant and refugee families spent their whole summer in the city. They believed that ALL children should have the opportunity to have the time of their lives in Canada's Great Outdoors. They enlisted volunteers and combined resources to host the first Camp Rhino that August. From that first camp in Bancroft, Ontario, we now have overnight camps in Ontario and Alberta, and day camps in Quebec. Generous sponsors from across the country subsidize our camps so every child from a New Canadian family can afford to come to camp.
Our all-inclusive fee includes
- Transportation to and from camp
- Meals and snacks. Halal offered. No pork or pork products.
- Cook-outs and barbecues
- Use of waterfront and sports equipment
- Your own camp video
How can our costs be so low?
Many individuals across our country know how much summers at camp impacted their own lives. They donate generously so that our New Canadian youth can have the same life-changing experiences they had.
