You make Highlands possible!

As a non-profit, we rely on the generosity of people like you. Your financial support ensures that we can continue to offer life-changing programs and retreats in a safe and welcoming environment. Your donation makes a difference in the following ways:

  • Camp scholarships: $500 will send a kid to camp.
  • Wastewater treatment plant repairs and upgrades.
  • New energy efficient boilers for the Retreat Center.
  • Weatherproofing and updating cabins.
  • Outdoor equipment for youth.
  • New mattresses.
  • Trail maintenance, improving accessibility.
  • So much more!

Ongoing operational costs and necessary improvements are ever-present. We are forever grateful for your generosity. It helps us keep the doors open and allows us to share God’s beautiful creation.

How to Give

Give online:

Donate a One Time or Recurring amount via Vanco.

Mail your payments:

Highlands Camp & Retreat Center
PO Box 66
Allenspark, CO 80510

From your IRA:

If you are over 70 1/2 years old, you can make a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) directly from your IRA or Roth IRA to Highlands Camp & Retreat Center.  For it to qualify as a QCD, the payment must be made directly from your IRA custodian to Highlands. The benefit of giving a QCD is that a QCD counts towards your Required Minimum Distribution and the QCD amount does not count as income to you.  To give a QCD, you should instruct your IRA custodian to make a QCD directly to Highlands Camp & Retreat Center.  You will need to provide your IRA custodian with the address, phone number, and Tax ID listed below:
