CIFC Donation Form (pdf)


Canoe Island French Camp needs your help to continue to provide unique and enriching two- and three-week educational experiences for campers, ages 9-16. Campers learn French language and culture through academic classes and artistic and outdoor activities:
•    Fencing and archery
•    Sailing, kayaking and swimming
•    Marine biology and snorkeling
•    French history, culture, and cuisine

Scholarships
Please consider helping us extend the camp experience to children who need financial assistance. Your tax-deductible contribution of any amount, made payable to CIFC and marked "Scholarship donation", helps make partial scholarships available each summer to financially and academically deserving campers. A week of camp costs approximately $1000.

Facilities
Donations are also sought for general operations and facility improvement. Campers experience the outdoors on a beautiful private island in the San Juan Islands of Northwestern Washington. Canoe Island’s unique architecture and ambiance make it a comfortable setting for campers to broaden their awareness of French history and culture while having fun and developing their care for each other and the natural environment.  Together we can continue to maintain the facilities and develop Canoe Island French Camp’s curriculum for years to come and help to provide memories for campers that last a lifetime.
