To Donate: If you are an organization or individual that wishes to provide financial assistance for children, please contact us at for more information. 100% of all donated funds are used for Summer Camp Scholarships for children.
To Apply: Our summer camp scholarships and financial aid program is a partnership between the camper families, donating organizations, and our own company’s fund. We therefore require at least partial payment from the family. Transportation and incidentals are the responsibility of the scholarship recipient. These scholarships and financial aid are to be applied to this year’s Wizards & Warriors and/or NERF Zombie Camp only.
We have a limited number of scholarships available based on financial need. The number and amount of scholarships available is based upon the contributions we receive combined with the allocated funds from Guard Up inc. set aside for scholarships. Our company is committed to assisting as many campers as possible in their quest to experience their own adventure at the Wizards & Warriors and NERF Zombie Summer Camp. While we sometimes receive more requests than scholarships are available and occasionally are unable to accept an application, we do strive to work with parents and organizations to assist as many children as we can.
Each camper applicant must provide the following:
Camp scholarships requests for large amounts may require verification by a copy of your family’s most recent tax returns.

You can receive up to the full cost of your tuition in referrals. “New Camper” is defined as anyone who has never attended a Guard Up camp or winter/spring adventure. Referred Campers may not be scholarship recipients.
Counselor In Training (CIT) Monster Camp:
This special group of older campers (ages 16 to 18) will be led by a Counselor through plots designed specifically for their group. They will also be given the chance to learn how to roleplay various types of mythical creatures and provide entertainment to the younger campers.
