Want your donation to go to Camp Loyaltown?
This year, Camp Loyaltown marks a milestone: half a century of welcoming children and adults with developmental disabilities to our beautiful sleepaway camp.
To celebrate, our goal is to raise a minimum of $50,000 to support the drilling of a new well, adding an additional water source to Camp Loyaltown. Ignited by the leadership and generosity of Mark and Doreen Gamell, we invite the camp community to donate any amount. Every donation will be matched dollar for dollar, up to $25,000!

Give stock
Donating appreciated securities, such as stock or mutual funds, to AHRC Foundation is a tax-wise approach for providing for children and adults with developmental disabilities. Many donors choose to make gifts to AHRC Foundation using long-term appreciated stocks and mutual funds due to the attractive tax advantages associated with such gifts. The benefits available to you when making a contribution of stock or mutual funds may include:
- Avoiding federal and state tax on the capital gain;
- Receiving an income tax deduction (federal and most states) for the full market value of the gift if you itemize deductions on your tax return and have held the assets one year or longer;
- Making a larger gift at a lower original cost to you.
